Students use an MSP432P401R board and educational booster pack in thiscourse [3].For the advanced embedded system education, the ESET program offers a graduate level course.The course title is Embedded Intelligent System Design. It was offered in Fall of 2019, and it isplanned to be offered again. Students can learn about Linux based embedded systems andartificial intelligence system applications in this course. © American Society for Engineering Education, 2020 2020 ASEE Annual Conference & ExpositionFor effective teaching, it is important to provide good learning environments.

Larrondo-Petrie, Florida Atlantic University Dr. Larrondo Petrie has a Ph.D. in Computer Engineering and is a Professor and Associate Dean of In- ternational Affairs in the College of Engineering and Computer Science of Florida Atlantic University. She is the Executive Director of LACCEI (Latin American and Caribbean Consortium of Engineering Institutions) and served in the past as an officer of the International Division of ASEE (American Society of Engineering Institutions). She is Editor-in-Chief of the Latin American and Caribbean Journal of Engi- neering Education, forms part of the
Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering (2013) as well as his BS in Computer Engineering (2007) from the University of Cincinnati. His research focused on detection and prevention of information leakage from hardware side channels. His current research interests include investigating the safety, resilience, and security of decentralized components, devices, and system architectures from theoretical modeling, to simulation and practical implementations. He is also involved in K-20 CS/cybersecurity education research and was the 2019 RMS ASEE conference co-chair. Mike also has over a decade of industry and research experience – mostly revolving around the semicon- ductor and bioinformatics industries – with
from those in years 2 and 3. This is due first, to a University-widechange in learning management systems which moved all courses from Blackboard™ toCanvas ™ in 2018, and a corresponding move from the video capture system TechSmith Relayto VidGrid. The free online whiteboard, Stoodle, that was used for group collaboration in 2016was eliminated and left an essential gap in the course design. To fill this gap, in 2018 and 2019,Microsoft One Note was used because it was free on campus and mimicked much of the samefunctionality, albeit with intermittent lags in performance.

Computer Applications) and afollow-on course, ME 106 Fundamentals of Mechatronics, from C to Python. Both courses makeextensive use of a microcontroller to teach the fundamentals in both subjects, and heretoforehave used the C language and the Arduino platform, but now both courses have moved to Pythonand to the Adafruit Feather M4 Express board, which can run Python natively on its associatedmicrocontroller. Prior to the transition to Python, ME 30 had a relatively high failure ratebetween about 10 - 35%. Since transitioning to Python, the failure rate dropped dramatically toabout 3% in the fall of 2019. The paper will outline the previous structure of the courses, explainthe motivation for transitioning from C to Python, and discuss the pros and

offered the MMC program every summersince 2016, while Kuwait offered the program one time in 2019. Each country was a group(i.e., USA and KW), and the tasks were identical for both groups. The research was carriedout over four 3-hour sessions for three weeks, excluding daily break time. On the first day,before any material was taught, students completed a survey about CT, and students playedKahoot after each session to test their knowledge about the material. Students retook the CTsurvey on the last day of the program. The workshops were identical to MMC lessons, withonly minor changes and translations for the KW group. Parents were asked to share theirchildren’s impressions and feedback about the lessons. Additional information is included inthe
