Recently, eclipse-based development tools have been employed by increasing number ofsoftware projects in both academy and industry. Many eclipse-based software tools supportMBD, which is an emerging development methodology for complex embedded software. Thenovelty of our work is to introduce students the MBD process in combination with eclipse-basedtools. The goal is to equip engineering students with the knowledge of using real-world softwaretools and cost-efficient software development methods. Our primary observations show that thiscombination could help students understand advanced software development technologies
