“…4 In most cases programming languages like Pascal 5,6 or C, 7 and sometimes an object-oriented language like Java or C++ 8,9 are used as a syntax model for explaining algorithm design and data structure techniques. Higher languages are taught on system level, as a general computer programming tool.…”

The paper discusses whether (and how) to teach assembly coding as opposed to (or in conjunction with) higher programming languages as part of a modern electrical engineering curriculum. We describe the example of a very simple cooperative embedded real-time operating system, fi rst programmed in C and then in assembler. A few lines of C language code are compared with the slightly longer assembly code equivalent, and the advantages and drawbacks are discussed. The example affords students a much deeper understanding of computer architecture and operating systems. The course is linked to other courses in the curriculum, which all use the same hardware and software platform; this lowers prices, reduces overheads and encourages students to reuse parts of a written code in subsequent courses. A student learns that badly written and poorly documented code is very diffi cult to reuse.

“…The role of the environment has been noticed by other researchers/teachers as well. Depradine and Gay studied[7] active participation of integrated development environments. Their main results indicate that the software environment plays a pivotal role in understanding the link between the programming and the underlying technology.…”

Collaborative learning is studied, especially in light of the code camp approach, in this paper. Code camp means a short, intensive collaborative learning event in which participants work in groups. Two code camp settings and one traditional programming course are presented. Students of the courses completed questionnaires and the answers were analyzed to establish the value of the code camp approach. It seems that students like the code camp approach and the results seem to be better than with traditional approaches to learning of programming.
