We heavily rely on the FPGA4U board [1], specifically developed for this purpose. The board is introduced early in the first year of the Bachelor for the Digital Systems course. The students' knowledge is augmented over the years with computer architecture classes up to the Master level. Master classes on embedded systems use the platform for practical hands-on exercises in short projects with emphasis on either hardware, software, or hardware/software co-design. There are three critical elements in the value of our approach: firstly, the FPGA4U board is tailored to the students' needs (extreme portability, ease of use, cost); secondly, the practical advantage of using a single hardware resource across many courses makes more challenging projects possible in less time; finally, all the knowledge acquired is shared on a collaborative web platform. The project also fosters ideas by students who can thus develop practical skills in complex embedded systems beyond curricular requirements. Several other hardware projects (such as LCD, camera, and flash memory extensions) have been pursued to expand the platform.","PeriodicalId":121254,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Embedded and Cyber-Physical Systems Education","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131009779","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The lack of experience with relevant tools and programming languages tends to limit the amount material that can be included in courses on this area. This, combined with limited familiarity and theoretical background within the field, makes motivating the students a serious issue.\u0000 In this paper we describe our effort to change one of the embedded systems courses at the University of Twente in a way that enables students, without additional prior knowledge, to obtain a broad experience on the field of Wireless Sensor Networks and possibly motivate them to follow a further specialization in Embedded Systems. To achieve this goal we moved away from the traditional course where students first had to practice with all the tools and languages needed to program embedded systems, after which they could work on the real challenges, to a course where students could work on the final challenges from the start.\u0000 Reversing this order eliminated the amount of time and effort students had to spent on learning tools and languages of which they did not yet understand the final purpose. This reversal led to a course that was received with great enthusiasm. Furthermore, given the progress the students showed during the course, this new approach proved to be highly effective. Hopefully the effects of this course can be seen in the following years in the form of a higher number of students choosing a specialization in Embedded Systems.","PeriodicalId":121254,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Embedded and Cyber-Physical Systems Education","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115323542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
