andpreparation for the course. The results are summarized in Table 1. A majority of the studentswere from the Computer Engineering (CE) major; this is not surprising since the course isrequired in the CE curriculum and most of them are interested in the topic. There were also afew Electrical Engineering (EE) majors who could take it as an elective. There were noComputer Science (CS) majors who could also take the course as an elective. In terms ofprerequisites, most of the students can program in C/C++ and assembly language but they are notnecessarily proficient. Most have also taken courses in digital logic design, computerorganization, and operating systems. The survey also indicated that a majority of students hadlittle prior knowledge or experience

There is a need to conduct objective longitudinalstudies that prevent attrition as opposed to the subjective retrospective studies done in the past.This study demonstrates a methodology that will begin to fulfill this need.
