The Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-usehardware and software. The “motor shield” is an add-on (daughterboard) to the Arduino thatfurther enables control of dc motors. This paper explains a method and hardware to connect anArduino to a separately-powered dc-motor unit. Matlab and Simulink provide full support of theArduino board for feedback-controller design. The Arduino board is powered by, andcommunicates with Simulink, through a standard USB connection. Keywords — computers in education, controls education, controls laboratory

The problems become much moretractable the more specific their domains are. They become adapted to their local environment, so tospeak. There is also a relationship between hardware and software that is ignored in the education weprovided engineering students, where some are seen as “software types” and some as “hardware types”.What we lose is an appreciation for the way one can influence the other, that real advances in parallel orvector processing or other truly different machine architectures from the first envisioned by

Although there is much literature on capstone projects in engineering education, fewstudies focus on students’ professional identity development. Dunlap 21 investigated a 16-weekfinal semester computer science capstone project in a university that used problem-basedlearning as a pedagogical method. The findings indicated that students not only experienced apositive change in their perceptions of their ability and preparedness for being a softwaredevelopment engineer, but they also experienced a change in their professional identities aftercompleting the project; they described themselves as software engineers, not

The author usually givesa quiz every week that covers one chapter. He then compared students’ performance with andwithout mind mapping. Early maps were produced manually but later maps were produced usingthe MindManager software (www.mindject.com).
