Forexample, research projects in robotics, computer networks, transportation, computer architecture,data mining, artificial intelligence, security, distributed systems, pattern recognition, and digitalimage processing have been included. The second unique aspect is that, based on the statisticspresented above, the commitment was to recruit the majority of the students from the Hispanicminority group, mainly from Florida and Puerto Rico. In addition, the University of SouthFlorida (USF) committed to bringing at least one student from a Latin American country eachyear.Most of the other aspects of the program are fairly standard

,engineering educators have been modifying engineering curricula by initiating coursesand projects that foster in their students advanced thinking skills and an understanding ofthe creative process. The educational modes in these "new engineering classrooms" areboth diverse and experimental, crossing disciplines, and involving processes oncereserved for artists and writers. The topography of progressive engineering programsvaries dramatically from university to university, as professors draw inspiration fromnon-traditional sources including the social sciences, philosophy, business, architecture,and art. The future of engineering education and practice is now largely the responsibilityof university programs that must respond flexibly to market

By following certainguidelines, many syntax errors can be avoided while at the same time programs becomemore readable and extensible. Students were taught to write reusable code. They weretaught to convert common operations into functions and group them into files so that theycould be included in other projects and be reused.The choice of microcontroller to teach in an embedded system course is also important.There are several microcontroller families with good development tools and demo boardssupport.

also reasons for teams to beused in a course: Teams are able to accomplish more than individuals, there is learning betweenmembers on a team, and teams are a way of developing and disseminating a culture. In theclassroom, the culture that should be developed among the students through the use of teams is aculture of collaboration and problem-solving. No amount of lecturing on the value of teams orthe value of collaborative problem solving can replace the learning or experiencing of actuallybeing a part of a team. It should be noted that teams can be formal or informal; for a largesemester project, teams may work together for weeks, but informal teams may develop duringsmall class discussions or class exercises.A potential hazard of using teams
