Supporting creators is an important but not the only goal and certainly notsupport for commercial enterprises except in so far as they advance intellectual activity. This isthe vision of those supporting OER creation and use. The high cost of textbooks created a crisisfor students. Surveys show that over half of students report not buying textbooks for classes,almost half have taken fewer courses and many report earning lower grades or dropping becausethey did not have the textbook [11].To meet those goals, platforms for OER creation have been built in the last decade. UNESCOdefines OER as “teaching, learning or research materials

Platforms that are easy to implement are those that areadaptable to the wide range of laboratories, studios, or workspaces and have strong online and offlinetechnical support. Lastly, course/application relevance (CAR) is defined as how appropriate the systemis with respect to the goals of the course/application. This includes taking into account the HI and SIratings, ease-of-implementation (EI), and how well they are aligned with the nature of the problem-solving application.

The original goal ofthe freshman course was to teach students the early portions of the sophomore year DC circuitscourse at a relaxed pace. The course has evolved over the recent years to respond to students'lack of informal technical and tooling backgrounds by adding more project-based labexperiences, including activities in the microcontroller and digital circuits areas. Students whoentered the program with such backgrounds, as was the case for the 2+2 structure, seemed to bealready motivated by their previous technical experiences.

of peer interaction when theinstructor is engaged with another student. Often, when a teacher in a computer lab stops to assist one student, thatteacher is totally engaged with helping that student address his/her issue. While the instructor is engaged in this way,other students can only wait for assistance or question their peers—this may or may not be encouraged in class andthat peer may not be the best student for the individual to query.To address the benefit of peer assistance, many computer science courses have seen a rise in the number ofeducators opting to use "pair programming" as a means of teaching students and staff [9].
