feel solely through written communication so their team could correctlyidentify the liquid without ever seeing it.Reflection-based homework assignments were developed to obtain students’ perception of thesegame-based communication activities as prior research showed that use of these game-basedcommunication activities resulted in positive improvement in both students’ oral and writtencommunication skills. The coding scheme for the reflections was developed using a grounded,emergent qualitative analysis. The reflections were then content analyzed by two analysts. Aninter-rater reliability measure based on Cohen’s Kappa was calculated for each game-basedactivity. The inter-rater reliability for the “Professional Slide,” “ROYGBIV,” and

, skills, and ability to solve complexproblems and to produce excellent solution(s) within the structure of the team. This concept wasfurther developed to include defining team and task, team climate, communication, and reflection(for a detailed description, please see Table 1)23-26.Design competence focused on finding and evaluating variants and recognizing and solvingcomplex design problems. These were further defined as having the ability to discover and designmultiple solutions to a given problem and to effectively evaluate those solutions to determine thebest solution, and having the ability to see the overall picture of a complex design problem, thenbreaking it into smaller, more manageable parts to solve while keeping the overall problem

, group C was assigned paper homework and group D wasassigned WeBWorK.On the day of the quiz, homework was collected at the start of the class period. To ensure thatquiz score would reflect the student’s understanding gained from the homework, both instructorsrefrained from answering any questions prior to and during the short 10-20 minute quiz(instructors could clarify problem statements but refrained from giving hints during the quiz).The quizzes were graded by a common third-party (neither instructor) grader under a specificcommon rubric. The grader had no previous knowledge of which test groups students belongedto during the grading of the quizzes. To verify the effects of either homework format on quizgrades, any quiz grades belonging to
