mission of the Engineering Education Innovation Center (EEIC), Rogers has co-led the development of an ABET approved curriculum for a year-long Capstone experience. With a focus on pro- viding students with a broader experience base, the multidisciplinary program applies teams of engineers, business, design, and other students to work with Ohio companies to help them be more competitive. Teams apply a company’s core competencies to help develop new products and markets. This experien- tial learning emphasizes real-world problem solving, professional communication and ethics, teamwork, and implementation of a formalized design process. Additionally, Rogers has created the Social Innova- tion and Commercialization

Communities Must Benefit The purpose of educational research is "to advance knowledge about education, to encourage scholarly inquiry related to education, and to promote the use of research to improve education and serve the public good"27. Typically, data collected as part of educational research is used to address research questions, and to write and publish papers. This ultimately benefits the researcher and improves the practice of education. Although some funding institutions such as the National Science Foundation (NSF) require dissemination of the research and evaluation findings28, in CBPR projects, research is only considered ethical if the community receives adequate benefits from

and the Achievers (i.e., high ACT students). This resultis not surprising, in that students with high ACT scores are typically in greater need ofmotivation than they are of academic ability. This is particularly true for the Purpose Seekers,who have plenty of academic ability but lack the motivation and work ethic required to deliver ahigh GPA. For those who ultimately graduated, the results of Figure 7 suggest that EGR 101provided (or at least contributed to) the motivation they needed.As shown in Figure 8, students who ultimately graduated in engineering indicated that EGR 101increased their chances of success in engineering (i.e., self-efficacy) more strongly than students
