Figure 1 shows the conceptual design of the proposedsystem. The overall design of the system was changed very little from the beginning phase of the projectto the finish. There are three main sections listed as the Brain Box, the water reservoir, and the connectedplant(s). Each of these parts consists of smaller components that allow the system to function properly.

With the help of this new curriculum and the common hardware platform, CPET studentsat PVAMU had the opportunity to practice embedded system hands-on experiments withoutundue stress in connecting basic peripheral interfacing circuits. The problem that we perceivedwas that it was difficult for students to write C program code for the ARM microcontrollerbecause of the complexity of ARM technology. It will be helpful to introduce simplemicrocontroller, such as PIC16FXXX, in both ASM and C coding in some previous

Of the 20-30 high schools in the region,there were four PLTW schools, so he started there. His first contact at each school was generallywith the principal, then with the PLTW teacher(s).He built a recruiting presentation, and started visiting the schools. At one school, the largest inthe region, the PLTW instructors set up large assemblies of students (PLTW classes, physicsclasses, etc.) so he could speak to hundreds of students in a single visit. At the other schools henormally spoke to one or two PLTW classes.Although it has a recruiting component, the presentation itself
