“…The course, outlined below, will address the ways of reducing the deficiencies in the existing curriculum [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. When developing and delivering the computer architecture subject matter for computer science majors, we believe that the prime factor to be focused on in any step is processor performance in implementing programming language constructs.…”

“…To address the deficiencies in traditional curriculum [4][5][6][7][8][9][10] and to satisfy the current needs, we redesigned our computer architecture course sequence with fundamentals to incorporate rapidly changing computer related technologies so that our graduates will be current with the technologies before they graduate. It is hypothesized that the learning rate can be increased if both the instructor and the student are active at the same time.…”

Most computer science, information systems and engineering programs have two or more computer architecture courses but lack suitable active learning and design experience in the classroom. Computer architecture at the intermediate level should focus on the implementation of basic programming constructs in different instruction set architectures. To accommodate such features we developed an undergraduate computer architecture course with hands-on classroom activities, laboratories and web based assignments. To assess the course we distributed the course modules among 200 computer architecture instructors. This paper describes our experience in developing active learning course modules.
