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.

For example, as shown in figure 7, Mechatronics andElectrical Engineering majors tend to perform better than Civil, Construction, and CivilEngineering Technology major students. This may be due to their interest in the field – whichindirectly dictates their motivation to participate in the study and learn the material. Overall Performance by Major 20 18 16 Average Score
