First-class teaching—planning and updatinglessons, creating appropriately challenging but fair homework assignments and examinations,learning about, importing, and implementing new instructional methods and materials, doingclassroom research and curriculum development and presenting and publishing the results, anddealing with the myriad of problems that students routinely present (classroom management,cheating, emotional problems, etc.)—is also a full-time job. There is a limit to how many full-time jobs one individual can hold down. Faculty members find different ways of dealing with this dilemma.1. The superhuman professors.

To teach students about teamwork and to help them to function effectively in teams.This last goal is an important part of the course because the students will be working extensivelyin teams in future courses of the curriculum. One of the course modules covers the generalattributes of effective teams1 and the personal skills and attitudes that students need to be excel-lent team members.

junior colleges have long played an important role in providing students accessto higher education, especially non-traditional and underrepresented student groups. Whenstudents who have completed a pre-engineering program at a two-year college begin study at afour-year institution, equivalent preparation is crucial for their academic success. In recognitionof this fact, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board has established a Field of StudyCurriculum for Engineering which allows a specific set of pre-engineering courses to transferfreely among two-year and four-year public institutions in Texas. This paper presents a strategyto develop faculty workshops to enhance the implementation of the field of study curriculum,providing students the

embedded system design.1.1. The Lab EnvironmentTraditionally, the use of FPGAs in the undergraduate curriculum has been pretty much limited tothe design and testing of digital circuits instead of the development of more advanced embeddedsystems6. There are two reasons for this: insufficient hardware capability and lack of anappropriate embedded system design environment. Earlier generations of FPGA devices werequite limited in terms of the available hardware programmable resources such as control logicblocks and they could not accommodate complex components such as processors—which are themost critical component in embedded systems. However, thanks to advances in IC technology

The goal of these PD workshops was toincrease teacher’s confidence and capability in integrating culturally relevant computing andcoding experiences within their curriculum and instruction. Here, we set our focus on the impactof the PD. Through the PD, teachers were engaged in computing and coding professionaldevelopment via Code.org. The teachers were then asked to apply what they learned aboutcoding by developing and implementing culturally relevant computing and coding experiencesfor their students.

In implementing the approach, the instructor identifies the topic orproblem to be proposed as a senior design project.
