Development of a microcontroller course using PIC16F1829

Research output: Chapter in Book / Conference PaperConference Paperpeer-review

Abstract

This paper presents our experience in developing a microcontroller course using the PICkit 3 starter kit based on the PIC16F1829 microcontroller, taught in six-week duration, at the Western Sydney University. The starter kit was released by Microchip in 2012. The paper elaborates challenges, new course structure, delivery mode, incorporation of active learning and student feedback results. The new contents were taught in 2014-2016. Possible improvement to enhance students experience is also proposed.
