A lens is a custom view of the content in the repository. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see content through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

What is in a lens?

Who can create a lens?

Any individual member, a community, or a respected organization.

Teaching assy & C together using MSP430

Module by: Eric Freudenthal. E-mail the author

Summary: This is a course developed at UTEP for students who already know 'how to program' in a too-high level langauge like Java that hides pointers.

We developed this course which simultaneously introduces students to C and assembly language in response to:

  • The adoption of Java as a primary teaching language
  • Which meant that while sophomores attending our course in “computer organization” could program, they had little intuition about memory abstractions.
  • And seniors were graduating without the ability to easily learn to program in C.

Papers on this course:

The full course including lecture notes and labs are published online: http://sites.google.com/site/arch1utep .

Feel free to adapt or adopt as suits your needs.

Please be sure to send email to me (Eric Freudenthal) should you adopt or adapt the course. I would be thrilled to incorporate your ideas and also would like to know how our approach works out on your campus.
