IntroductionIn our 2007 paper1 we reported on an assessment study we had conducted that resulted in asignificant change and reorientation with the curriculum and subsequent course progression ofour physics program. At that time, our physics program was integrated with a single departmentalong with two other disciplines in the department of Computer Science, Audio Technology, andPhysics (CAP). Shortly after our study was conducted, each of these programs separated and 3independent departments were created.As part of our study, we looked at comparative data from 22 national undergraduate programsfocusing on those that were in universities without graduate programs in physics as well as thosein liberal arts colleges.

Overall, 20 students participated in the curriculum pilot implementation, 5 of whomwere female. Frequent absences meant that very few students attended every session, and both apre- and post-assessment were obtained from only 14 of the students. Most students worked inpairs with one robot and one computer terminal per pair, although a few students chose to workas individuals. Table 1 summarizes the results of the pre- and post-test.
