In n each frame, the specificpins for the subsystem are read. The GUI iss then updated to reflect the new data as read from the seensors.

And even those that discuss the general microcontroller structure, they do so very spar-ingly without planting the necessary seeds to make the topic understandable to students. This ineffect is reflected in how the class ends up being taught in many schools, see for example 7–12 . Assuch students are forced to learn on type of microcontroller as if it is the only one in the market.These student tend to get stuck when required to decide for themselves which microcontroller touse in a particular design, or when required to work with a different type of a microcontroller.Their knowledge tend to

The quizzes 1) helped clarify what a good performance was, 2)facilitated the development of self-assessment (reflection) in learning, 3) delivered high qualityinformation to student about their learning, 4) encouraged teacher and peer dialogue aroundlearning, and 5) provided information that we could use to modify our teaching. The studioformat and flipped nature of the course were key to supporting these basic feedback principles.Experiment ResultsThe most significant effect of the latest method of flexible assessment was seen in its impact onthe final overall course grade and one of the final exams.

Because many students takemore units than that are required for a degree program, ‘seniors’ are disproportionately representedusing this classification system.

Anderson identified a few indicators of ELT instruction: • Students engaged in EBL are involved through their senses, feelings, and intellect, at varying levels. • Students can recognize and relate lessons to personal learning experiences. • Students can reflect upon earlier experiences and transform them into deeper understanding.20Therefore, given the complex nature of sustainability problems and the PBL and ELT pedagogy,realistic problems that draw on students’ past experiences may be an effective way to meet theASCE and ABET goals as it pertains to teaching
