The lab project (Bruce, Harden, and Reese 2004;Bruce 2004; Bruce and Goulder 2005) would be difficult to complete in a normal academicsemester if students were expected to design, write, and test all hardware and softwarecomponents of the project themselves. Furthermore, an industrial project of this magnitudewould likely rely on existing designs or software libraries. To this end, the authors wrote asimple real-time multitasking operating system named the Embedded Systems Operating System(ESOS) based on the very clever protothreads library (Dunkels 2017) by Adam Dunkels.

engineering students spendnumerous hours per week reading popular science-based Internet comics, such as xkcd.com andphdcomics.com, for example. Thus, it makes sense that comics can be leveraged as a learningmodality for engineering students. The use of comics in STEM education is not new, however,they have yet to be utilized extensively in higher education to teach engineering. Having taught asenior level mass transport course numerous times, a common challenge for students that persistsis applying mathematical concepts to describe binary diffusion.
