Re Engineering Traditional Learning Model with Outcome Based Learning Curve using Embedded Training Laboratory

This paper presents the design and implementation of an indigenous outcome based 8051 microcontroller training kit. Most of the existing microcontroller training kits available do not have local content, and also have problems with maintenance and repair when they develop faults. Users usually dump these kits when they develop faults due to a lack of trained technical maintenance personnel. This project used components that are locally available to implement an outcome based 8051 microcontroller training kit that is modular and easy to use. In the methodology, the bottom top approach was used to design the individual modules of the kit before fabricating them on a printed circuit board PCB . The user manual was then developed and experiments in it were tested using the developed training kit. The result of the work is an outcome based 8051 microcontroller training kit that meets the National Universities Commission NUC and Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria COREN standards. It has various modules for the user to practice several 8051 microcontroller programming experiments. The work can be deployed in university laboratories for microcontrollers and embedded systems training. Specifically, there are courses in Mechatronics engineering, FUTO, that can be taught using this kit.
