Direct linkGarcia-Carballeira, Felix; Calderon-Mateos, Alejandro; Alonso-Monsalve, Saul; Prieto-Cepeda, Javier – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2020
Our educational project has three primary goals. First, we want to provide a robust vision of how hardware and software interplay, by integrating the design of an instruction set (through microprogramming) and using that instruction set for assembly programming. Second, we wish to offer a versatile and interactive tool where the previous…

Jerše, Gregor; Lokar, Matija – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2017
The emphasis in several courses at technical faculties is on using a computer to perform numerical methods. Instead of focusing on mathematical rigorousness such courses usually concentrate on demonstrating the practical usage of numerical mathematical methods to the students. The practical usage of numerical methods is best learned by exposing…

Xia, Belle Selene; Liitiäinen, Elia – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
The benefits of using online exercises have been analysed in terms of distance learning, automatic assessment and self-regulated learning. In this study, we have not found a direct proportional relationship between student performance in the course exercises that use online technologies and the exam grades. We see that the average submission rate…
