The overall goalof this study is to turn an introduction to engineering technology course into a first-yearengineering technology (FYET) program. A first-year program is being described as acurriculum that requires a majority of the students to take the same college specific course(s)within the first year of their college career regardless of what their major is.Literature ReviewFYE programs are common in engineering schools across the United States with a large portionof universities restructuring their
, concerns related to security continue to grow.Since the early 2000’s, the number of cyberattacks against deployed software systems has significantlygrown. In 2014, recognizing this concern, a modification to the ABET EAC program accreditation criteriafor software engineering was made, explicitly requiring topical coverage of security for accreditedprograms. Since taking effect in 2016, all programs in software engineering have been required todemonstrate appropriate coverage of the topic as part of the accreditation process. While the criteriarequires that the topic of security be covered, the implementation has been left open to individualprograms.This article serves two purposes. First and foremost, it provides an updated status on the
,frequent feedback and regular interactions between students and teachers [4]. Assessment andfeedback are crucial components in teaching and learning in engineering education [5]. Therefore,the impact of assessments on students can be significantly influenced by the quality of feedbackthey receive.Feedback serves various purposes including notifying students about their current performance,their achievement of course objectives, and bridging the gap between students’ currentperformance and desired performance [6]. Furthermore, good feedback practices encourage self-assessment, provides clarification on what is good performance, motivates and fosters self-esteemand informs the instructor’s teaching [7].According to Subheesh, N.

In order to expose students to computer architecture development andorganization skills, the course, also, concentrates on teaching a typical internal architecture, the8051’s smaller subset, Weekend Instructional Microprocessor (WIMP51), which is rudimentaryin design and has a small instruction set. The recreated WIMP51, built using Altera’s Quartus IIdesign software’s schematic capture, in Block Diagram Files (BDF), provides bettervisualization of its internal hardware. The processor can be downloaded, onto the FPGA board,and tested using multiple programs, which helps students understand its internal functioning.This platform
