1 1 Embedded Systems – Shape the World What is it? – Education – Transformational ° Substantial lab component – Global, outreach – Based on a freshman class – Peer to peer learning What isn’t it? – For college credit – Profitable – Qualitative Valvano, Yerraballi, Fulton, and Dattathri 41,329 students, 8% finished ½ 1

2 2 Substantial Lab Component (90% grade) Necessary Components – A sandbox for students to discover – Controllable by the virtual TA – Observable/gradable by the virtual TA Lab Kit – Low cost ($35) – Readily available Peer-to-peer interaction – Supports learning (see, do, teach) – Provides scaling Valvano, Yerraballi, Fulton, and Dattathri We graded function not style 2

16 16 My Thoughts MOOC Lab needs ability to control, observe, assess –Needs more creativity and open ended –Needs more qualitative assessments Peer interactions are critical –Teams of 2 or 3 –Helping each other in forums –Cohort of 20 to provide qualitative feedback Industry collaboration is essential Can’t do enough beta-testing It’s education but not ready for college credit It takes a village Valvano, Yerraballi, Fulton, and Dattathri Can you be lonely in a class of 40,000? 16
