futurecommunication. This assessment step is a key part of the communication skill set.Given the recognized need to improve communication skills by the engineering educationcommunity as well as curriculum assessments of our industrial engineering (IE) program(described by Potter, et al.19), we have developed an innovative communication course to addressthe skills gap. In this paper, we describe the new course and present assessment results from thefirst offering of this course during the Fall 2007 semester, including skill assessment, self-efficacy data, and qualitative feedback from students. Examples of student work and assessmentprocesses are included. Finally, we describe short term changes to the course and long termimpact expectations.Course content

Metacognition is a type ofinternal dialogue that must be practiced, much like many other skills. Another important theme, though not emphasized in How People Learn is engagement.Student cognitive engagement includes topics concerning their intrinsic and extrinsic motivation,identification with academics, and self-efficacy. Common sense says if students want to learn,feel they can learn, and feel that others believe they can learn, then they will be more successfulthan those who do not. A great article to be

Ultimately, this leads to outcome experiences — the perceived resultsof taking certain actions [26]. It seeks to describe how interventions and activities can enhancepersonal mastery experiences. Furthermore, in the context of computing, it has been shown todescribe not only interests, but also choice goals [27].An overview of the framework, as it pertains to our study, is presented in Figure 1.

This idea is supported byTsenn et al., who explored how self-efficacy relies on motivation and outcome expectation and correlatedmotivation to the number of times students spent on the project [8]. Bracken et al. looked at the perceivedvalue of the project, relevance to engineering discipline and tasks, and the use of "cool" technologies asfactors that students considered in the project selection process. This point again touches on the idea thatby bringing together motivation and interest in the project, the learning experience, responsiveness tochallenges, and overcoming obstacles will improve throughout the project.

The bearings of thoseidentities cut across other interactional experiences, such as teamwork, in which students wereexpected to assert themselves and navigate unfamiliar team dynamics.Teamwork was often studied through the lens of student behaviors. Using an educationalanthropologist approach, Tonso (2006a) studied how the campus culture (categorized by studenttypes – nerds, Greeks, and academic achievers) influenced teamwork in an engineering collegeof a state-funded university in the Midwest.

The surveyasked the students to answer a common set of questions, eight questions for each of the sixlanguages. Those questions included perceptions of relevance and perceptions of effects on self-confidence (also known as “self-efficacy”). The survey also asked the students whether, or not,they would recommend each programming language for use with future students. Although thesurveys were anonymous, standard demographic data was requested, and that has allowed simplecomparisons to be made not only between programming languages but also to compare theattitudes of women and minorities to those of white males (for this study, the responses ofwomen and minorities

Students in a control group solved the sameproblems individually.

As seen by many other minority-serving institutions,students from underrepresented minority groups usually encounter significant learning barriersthat prevent them from achieving their academic goals. As many of our students are firstgeneration college students in their families, lack of family support usually leads to lesspersistence and low self-efficacy in learning. In addition, poor financial condition imposesanother significant barrier to student learning. An

PIC is a core concept ofidentity research, emphasizing that when individuals perceive a close connection between theirself-concept and their career goals, they are more likely to maintain motivation, interest andpersist in that domain, even when they experience difficulty [22]. Further, the data suggest thatPIC leads to higher sense of belonging to the University and it’s members. Kim, London andcolleagues also demonstrate that interest in a STEM career and sense of belonging in one’sUniversity both predicted STEM self-efficacy among students (confidence in one’s ability tomanage STEM academic tasks).

When students work on real-world problems,they are more motivated because real-world problems usually have proximal and tangible goalswhich often lead to higher self-efficacy and control among students. The pedagogy in this courseachieved the goal because the real-life-based design project and related activities were implicatedin personally meaningful tasks.On the other hand, students were not highly motivated by being able to connect information fromdisparate contexts and make reflective judgments through critical thinking.

Self efficacy would be a similar, but perhaps moremeaningful measurement, as students would be able to more accurately self-report this on asurvey. It would also provide a great deal more insight to have numbers that can be compared,and thus provide a more accurate sense of video influence on student learning.In addition to the more qualitative, opinion based data provided by the survey, it may be helpfulto incorporate assessments that more directly illustrate how the videos improve understanding ofconcepts

Seven faculty participants were interviewed after
