[Overview]
In this class, the students will build systems with a microcomputer. In the first half of the class, the students will implement and operate a basic system with a microcomputer as an individual task. In the latter half of the class, as a group task, the students will combine the basic system with a microcomputer for each group to propose and realize a complex system. In the latter half of the group task, each group discusses their system to be realized. The students propose their composite system from their discussed ideas. In the process of developing the system, the students can understand basic elements of the system and system integration.

Achievement Goal 1 is evaluated by the working reports of every time.
Achievement Goal 2 is evaluated by the submitted materials (C programming practice, report and video).
Achievement Goal 3 is evaluated by the evaluation of group presentation (pre-presentation and final presentation).
The final score depends on the working reports of every time (20 %), the submitted materials (C programming practice, report and video) (20%), the evaluation of group presentation (pre-presentation and final presentation) (30%), and the evaluation of final report (30%). At last the final score is limited 100 points. Students who get 60 % or over 60 % are passed.
60 percent (minimum) level is described as follows.
(1). Students can use some basic functions of a microcomputer.
(2). Students can develop their hardware and software almost as you designed.
(3). Students can make some basic functions by using microcomputer.
