Society for Engineering Education, 2015 Innovative Embedded Systems ProjectAbstractThe goal of an Embedded Design course is to teach programming, embedded circuits and softwarealgorithms. There are also related goals, such as learning to use development tools, lab equipmentand proper debugging techniques. There are tangential goals such as working in teams andpreparation for senior/capstone projects. And while there are a variety of approaches to teaching,the common theme is that you want the students to be successful and understand the material asthoroughly as possible.Each year, there are new peripherals, new processors and most engineering departments do not takea static approach to education and try to include more
