While it is the details of themethod used that will be presented, the lessons readers should learn are straightfoward. It is notnecessary to implement the exact process described in this paper to teach and assess teamworkand life-long learning. If you want to teach and assess the ability for life-long learning, givestudents an assignment in which they have to demonstrate that they can learn new things on theirown, and then assess their ability to do so.

Thus, the job of the educators isto enhance the curriculum by including in it those techniques and tools of real-time softwaredevelopment that are currently used in industry. Based on their experiences with real-time dataacquisition and control projects in avionics and high-energy physics, the authors developed andpreviously published a suite of experiments for teaching implementation and testing ofdistributed software, including topics such as semaphores, message queues, scheduling, priorityinversion, device drivers and real-time kernels2,3).
