Guevara-Cedeno, J. Y.; Palma-Behnke, R.; Uribe, R. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2012
In the field of electricity markets, the development of training tools for engineers has been extremely useful. A novel experimental economics approach based on a computational Web platform of an electricity market is proposed here for the practical teaching of electrical engineering students. The approach is designed to diminish the gap that…

Hung, Y.-C. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2012
This paper investigates the impact of combining self explaining (SE) with computer architecture diagrams to help novice students learn assembly language programming. Pre- and post-test scores for the experimental and control groups were compared and subjected to covariance (ANCOVA) statistical analysis. Results indicate that the SE-plus-diagram…

Nikolic, B.; Radivojevic, Z.; Djordjevic, J.; Milutinovic, V. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2009
Courses in Computer Architecture and Organization are regularly included in Computer Engineering curricula. These courses are usually organized in such a way that students obtain not only a purely theoretical experience, but also a practical understanding of the topics lectured. This practical work is usually done in a laboratory using simulators…

Shih, Chien-Chou; Hwang, Lain-Jinn – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2011
The need for professional programmers in embedded applications has become critical for industry growth. This need has increased the popularity of embedded software design courses, which are resource-intensive and space-limited in traditional real lab-based instruction. To overcome geographic and time barriers in enhancing practical skills that…
