碩士 === 逢甲大學 === 資訊工程所 === 95 === With the development of embedded system technology, there are various applications such as mobile systems, personal digital assistant, and GPS location service. Therefore, a person who has the ability of embedded system design becomes completing in the ICT industry. The education of embedded system plays a significant role in training people who get the ability of embedded system software/hardware integration and application programming. Especially, the ability of application is an important scale in the embedded system development domain and it assesses students’ comprehension of software/hardware integration concept exactly. The current learning of embedded software porting lacks a systemized ways and sometimes porting experience is difficult to be preserved and shared. In this work, we design and implement a learning platform that can be used to assist students in leaning embedded system porting by using a step-by-step and modulized management model. Student may have the ability to realize the concept of porting flow and implement the real case individually. Two models in this work include “learning by example” which can enhance a student’s learning outcomes by using examples and “learning by doing” which can improve student’s implement experiences and operation capability. We also provided an assessment module in our learning platform. By using the platform, a teacher gets the comprehend status of student’s. Experiments are conducted to evaluate our system and the results show that the proposed learning platform is effective for students’ in the learning embedded software porting individually.
