Because student gains in knowledge and development may beinfluenced by instructor characteristics and classroom dynamics, several student-instructorinteraction variables were measured for experimental groups. These variables include: out-of-classroom communication with instructor (7), classroom climate (8), instructor verbalaggressiveness (9), and instructor verbal assertiveness (9).

Further, because these are longitudinal data, we also calculate the E-I index for students who were engaged in VIP in the first year to address whether newer students are being actively integrated into the student networks.
