The architecture is modelled in VHDL and can be simulated usingXilinx design tools to demonstrate operation of the processor. A basic microcontroller is thencreated by adding memory-mapped input/output (I/O). The system can be synthesized andimplemented in hardware on a field programmable gate array (FPGA). The goal of this projectwas to add serial communication capabilities to the Instructional Processor via software andhardware. The enhanced microcontroller can then be

Currently door slam requirements are a subjective test looking for buzz, squeaks,rattles. The development of a laboratory fixture would allow a more repeatable method to controldoor acceleration and potentially make a more quantifiable method.” Students are currentlyworking on an inertia simulator for door handles.

Howwould you say the two balance out?ResultsStudying vs. Completing AssignmentsStudents divided the idea of studying into two categories. The first was completion ofassignments, ranging from homework assignments to laboratory reports. The second wasstudying for the purpose of understanding the knowledge discussed in class in order to be readyfor tests and examinations.Some of the students’ comments give a sense of how the idea of completing an assignment is notnecessarily considered ‘studying’: “[In] my Math class, I

This causes a significant difference in the incomingstudent’s ability and self confidence related to this course.Teaching and Learning PhilosophyCentral to the teaching and learning philosophy of this course was that a significant componentof the course would be learned and experienced through computer laboratory sessions. With thisin mind, the typically 12-week duration course was set to have 1.5 hours per week of lecturesand 3 hours per week of computer lab sessions. The lectures would be undertaken in a singlesection and would typically have an enrolment of approximately 100 students. Each of the labswould have a maximum size of 45 students, typically requiring three lab sections, which

task conflict tended to have negative effects ongroups with routine tasks and positive impacts on teams with non-routine work [5]. Taskconflict’s impact on performance has also been found to be dependent upon how the conflict isaddressed and the levels of trust and cooperation within a group [16], [17]. The team’s purposeand the length of its lifetime can affect conflict and productivity’s relationship as well. In theirmeta-analysis, O’Neill and colleagues found relationship and process conflict to be mostdetrimental for organizational teams and least detrimental for laboratory teams; they also foundthat teams which have a larger lifetime are more negatively impacted by these forms of conflict[8].
