Engineering Technology (58)This project links two community colleges and a four-year university in a collaborative practice to design and develop a specific PIC microcontroller training system with custom designed software and curriculum materials for related engineering technology courses. The functions of the hardware and software cover different areas of engineering technology courses and majors to maximize the use of the system. This project includes the design and development of the training system with appropriate curriculum (year one) testing and assessment of the effectiveness of the designed digital, microprocessor curriculum package for two-year community college courses (year two). The evaluation portion of this project is to compare the students' evaluation scores for those who used this training system and students who did not use the system in their microcontroller courses. A survey of the students and teachers at the end of the semester and external evaluation is used for the assessment of this project. Sharing of this training system with other institutions will occur at the end of project. This project is an attempt to improve student learning and overcome obstacles in teaching digital, microprocessor/microcontroller related courses that are delivered through distance learning formats. Implementing this project provides opportunities to students in rural and urban areas to learn current technology concepts and become prepared to qualify for high-tech jobs. The institutions involved in this project currently serve diverse, under-represented students in the geographic areas they reach.

工程技术（58）该项目将两所社区学院和一所四年制大学联系在一起，共同设计和开发一个特定的PIC微控制器培训系统，并为相关的工程技术课程提供定制设计的软件和课程材料。 硬件和软件的功能覆盖了工程技术课程和专业的不同领域，最大限度地发挥了系统的作用。 该项目包括设计和开发培训系统，提供适当的课程（第一年），测试和评估两年制社区学院课程（第二年）设计的数字微处理器课程包的有效性。 该项目的评估部分是比较在微控制器课程中使用该培训系统的学生和未使用该系统的学生的评估分数。 本项目的评估采用了学期末对学生和教师的问卷调查和外部评估的方法。 在项目结束时，将与其他机构分享这一培训系统。 该项目是一个尝试，以改善学生的学习和克服障碍，在教学数字，微处理器/微控制器相关的课程，通过远程学习格式提供。 该项目的实施为农村和城市地区的学生提供了学习当前技术概念的机会，并为获得高技术工作资格做好准备。 参与这一项目的机构目前为他们所到达的地理区域的多样化，代表性不足的学生提供服务。
