iteration.This training is necessary because video is a different medium than typically used in engineeringcommunication (i.e. technical reports or diagrams) and the medium is temporally linear with lessability to provide supplementary information. Thus the choice of content and how it is presentedare key to clear communication. Furthermore multimodal communication is becoming moreimportant in the engineering workforce as customers and others increasingly use videos to accessneeded information.Video projects were supported by two faculty. The course instructor was responsible foradvising students and evaluating technical content while an Instructional Technologist in theuniversity’s library and information technology division taught the weekly one hour
