, our efforts directly contribute to the achievementof overall student learning outcomes and program outcomes.Given the current challenges facing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, andMathematics) education, it is our belief that any new teaching or assessment practice in STEMdisciplines should enhance students’ motivation. Therefore, it is beneficial to use onlineassessment for extra credit assignments. For example, if all questions are correctly answered, amaximum of 5% of extra credit can be obtained. Based on our experiment, students are highlymotivated in completing these online assignments. About 92% of the students finished allquestions, 6% finished part of the assignment, and only 2% did not start the assignment. This isnot only

AC 2010-543: AN INITIAL ANALYSIS OF STUDENT ENGAGEMENT WHILELEARNING ENGINEERING VIA VIDEO GAMEBrianno Coller, Northern Illinois University Brianno Coller is an Associate Professor of Mechanical engineering. He started his research career applying fairly deep mathematical ideas to gain insight into how complex physical and engineering systems work. His work was theoretical and somewhat abstract. Since then, his research has evolved toward studying a different type of complex system: how students learn and become excited about engineering. In this endeavor, Dr. Coller is mostly a "nuts & bolts" practitioner, an engineer, and an experimentalist.David Shernoff, Northern Illinois University
