Composition I is a writing-intensive class in which students are introduced to information literacy concepts. 

Information literacy is best defined in terms of the individual:  Someone who is information literate is a life-long learner who realizes when information is needed and has the ability to find, retrieve, evaluate, and ethically use information.
