This paper describes a 12-month study investigating the feasibility of designing a cooperative learning project which provided opportunities to embed the concepts of information literacy and global communication into the university curriculum. Bridging two courses from different disciplines, the learning project under study was a platform for both postgraduate students and undergraduate students to exchange research ideas and share cultural information. Data included mainly course materials, student presentations, interviews, and a questionnaire survey. Analysis of the data shows that the learning project was innovative and effective in enhancing students’ information literacy and global communicative competence. Moreover, a tendency was identified in the students’ project presentations, i.e., the integration of the Chinese view of harmony and the international view of unity.
