CDIO implementation in microprocessor course through mini project assignment

Abstract

CDIO approach is an educational framework which has been introduced to address the technical exposure deficiencies in higher education engineering courses. Realizing the significance of CDIO, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, UiTM Terengganu applied the CDIO components in microprocessor course taken by its students through group mini project assignments. Mini projects of 50 students were assessed with respect to CDIO components. Their assessment results are looked into to analyze the effectiveness of CDIO incorporation implementation. The findings have shown that most students are capable to obtain good results with respect to CDIO evaluation criteria.
