mechanism for ensuring course consistency was the course andsubordinate lesson objectives, as approved by the department program director. In all cases, theseobjectives were not altered, either to increase or reduce content.Using lesson objectives as the guiding parameter, lesson restructuring followed a generallyconsistent pattern. First, any lessons under the 40 class format that were “drop periods” (used toprovide students with compensatory time) were eliminated from the schedule. Additionally,lessons used as working group sessions for larger projects and laboratories were rolled intoadjacent lessons that presented new material. It should be noted that this action reduced workinggroup session time from 55 minutes to a shortened period as allowed

A focus on the networking aspect of the RTOS kernel wasexplained by teaching the CAN bus. The emphasis was to make clear the networking part of theRTOS [9]. Laboratories were developed for teaching RTOS. For example, a virtual machineenvironment was introduced to reduce the setup time [10]. A commercial grade open sourceRTOS, FreeRTOS, was taught to show the deployment of RTOS. The emphasis was on using theFreeRTOS but not designing an RTOS [11]. The approach in [11] is a “top-down

Another advantage is the freedom of time which isavailable whenever a computer is available. In addition, the time to achieve the task is alwaysreduced when working with computers [9]. Moreover, one of the predominant advantages ofcomputer modeling is allowing for fast modification swiftly and economically. This fast and easymanipulation of the parameters is very helpful to show the students how little compromises inone’s lifestyle may lead to significant sustainable merits.
