The Impact

Embedded microcontroller (MCU) systems is one of the most important topics in undergraduate electrical and electronics engineering and computer engineering curricula. Laboratory sessions are vitally important in teaching/learning of MCUs. Unfortunately, most commercially available MCU development kits are not well designed for educational purposes. In this paper, we report on the design and implementation of an educationally oriented MCU kit. The design aimed to produce a fairly universal training board that can cover a range of experiments for different topics, which resulted in embedding a rich group of peripherals. Furthermore, the kit was associated with student-centric lab manuals, training exercise, video materials, and virtual MCU experiments. This paper presents a pedagogical investigation of the impact of using the embedded systems virtual labs for preparation. The quantitative results show statistical evidence that preparation with a virtual embedded systems lab results in higher learning outcomes.

This paper reports on a project based learning approach taken to teach the ECE 3740 Systems Engineering Principles and ECE 3730 Principles ofEmbedded Systems Design courses at the University of Manitoba. These courses were 100% hands-on, and each student was given development hardware and software in a lunch box to take home and work on projects throughout the course. Industry representative projects were chosen based on the author’s 5 years of experience working in the embedded systems industry. The courses were given in a company-like setting, where the lectures and laboratories were organized as product requirements gathering and analysis, design modeling and review, test plan and procedures, engineering change request and management, documentation, and product deployment meetings and events. The test and final exam were performed by students in the laboratory; they brought their embedded systems hardware in the lunch box,solved the given hands-on problems of the test/exam, and demonstrated their solutions, in real-time. This novel methodology allowed the examiner to directly assess student performance in the CEAB attributes of Design, Analysis, Investigation, and Tools, because their designsand solutions were actually demonstrated in actual hardware and software, not just on paper, like the conventional assessment approach for tests and exams.

Teaching Learning

Promoting cultural competence in serving diverse clients has become critically important across disciplines. Yet, progress has been limited in raising awareness and sensitivity. Tervalon and Murray-Garcia (1998) believed that cultural competence can only be truly achieved through critical self-assessment, recognition of limits, and ongoing acquisition of knowledge (known as “cultural humility”). Teaching cultural humility, and the value associated with it remains a challenging task for many educators. Challenges inherent in such instruction stem from lack of resources/known strategies as well as learner and instructor readiness. Kirk (2007) further indicates that providing feedback on one's integrity could be threatening. In current study, both traditional classroom-based teaching pedagogy and hands-on community engagement were reviewed. To bridge a gap between academic teaching/learning and real world situations, the author proposed service learning as a means to teach cultural humility and empower students with confidence in serving clients from culturally/linguistically diverse backgrounds. To provide a class of 51 students with multicultural and multilingual community service experience, the author partnered with the Tzu-Chi Foundation (an international nonprofit organization). In this article, the results, strengths, and limitations of this service learning project are discussed.
