Workforce Communication Instruction: Preliminary Inter-rater Reliability Data for an Executive-based Oral Communication Rubric

Presented at Advances in Assessment of Communication and Interdisciplinary Competence

Authors
  1. Dr. Tristan T. Utschig Orcid 16x16http://orcid.org/https://0000-0003-1057-3825 Georgia Institute of Technology [biography]

    Tristan Utschig is a Senior Academic Professional in the Center for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning and Assistant Director for the Scholarship and Assessment of Teaching and Learning at the Georgia Institute of Technology. In this role, he consults with faculty about planning and assessing educational innovation in the classroom. He also serves as an evaluator on educational research grants. Formerly, he was tenured Associate Professor of engineering physics at Lewis-Clark State College. Utschig has regularly published and presented work on a variety of topics, including assessment instruments and methodologies, using technology in the classroom, faculty development in instructional design, teaching diversity, and peer coaching. Utschig completed his Ph.D. in nuclear engineering at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, where he worked on safety issues for fusion reactor designs.

  2. Dr. Judith Shaul Norback Georgia Institute of Technology [biography]

    Judith Shaul Norback received her B.A. from Cornell magna cum laude and her master's and Ph.D. from Princeton. She has worked in the area of workplace communication skills for 25 years, starting at Educational Testing Service in 1987, then founding and directing the Center for Skills Enhancement, Inc., in 1993. Her clients included the National Skill Standards Board, the U.S. Department of Labor, and many universities. Norback joined Georgia Tech in 2000 to focus on the workplace communication skills of engineers and is general faculty and Director of Workplace and Academic Communication in the Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering. In 2003, she founded the Workforce Communication Lab, which has had more than 16,000 student visits to date. The instruction she developed has been shown to make a significant difference in students' presentation skills during five semesters so far. Norback has published in refereed journals and conference proceedings, presented at national conferences, and is now Program Chair for her division in ASEE, VP of External Relations for INFORMS-ED, and Chair for Student Involvement for the 2012 Capstone Design Conference. She is working on a book called "Oral Communication Excellence for Engineers: What the Workforce Demands" for John H. Wiley & Sons (due in 2013) and several articles, while continuing to teach capstone design communication instruction and a course on journal article writing for graduate students. Her current research focus includes evaluating the reliability of the scoring rubric she and Tristan Utschig developed from executive input and identifying the cognitive schema used by students to create graphs from raw data.

  3. Jeffrey S. Bryan Georgia Institute of Technology [biography]

    Jeffrey S. Bryan is currently in his first year of Georgia Tech's M.S. program in digital media. He attended Southern Utah University as an undergraduate, and majored in English education. He worked for several years as a trainer for AT&T, teaching adult learners, and as an Editor for an opinion research company. He currently works as a Graduate Research Assistant in Georgia Tech's Center for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning (CETL), where he assists with assessment and data analysis for ongoing CETL projects. His master's thesis involves an investigation of choice and transgression in video game storytelling.
