Abstract-This paper presents the online conduction of the System Design with DSPs laboratory sessions through the R-DSP Lab (Remote Digital Signal Processor Laboratory). This interactive RL (Remote Laboratory) supports the verification of DSP applications which are written offline by the students in C and/or assembly programming language, through an internet accessible and user friendly control environment. The latest and most important feature of the R-DSP Lab which is also proposed in this paper, is the remote control of student's DSP applications through GUIs (Graphical User Interfaces) developed by them. In order to demonstrate the above feature, the implementation and verification processes of one laboratory session are presented. The assessment and evaluation results of both the System Design with DSPs laboratory sessions and the R-DSP Lab, are also discussed.

“…However, the majority of times their true usage are rarely evaluated following a scientific procedure (Toral et al, 2009). Even when they are evaluated, use evaluation is limited to one-dimensional post-training perceptions of learners (Abdel-Qader et al, 2003), and these perceptions are too often measured using ''happy sheets'', which ask learners about their satisfaction with the overall learning experience.…”

a b s t r a c tThe widespread availability of digital learning resources in a variety of media formats has promoted the proliferation of eLearning systems as an integral part of teaching across all sectors of education. However, these systems are rarely planned in advance taking into account its final usefulness. At most, they are validated through learner experience using the final implemented system. In this paper, a scientific technique called concept mapping is proposed to identify the external variables that should be kept in mind while designing an eLearning tool. As a result, improvements can be programmed to increase its utility in the teaching activities prior to its use. The method has been tested in the development of a eLearning system used for advanced microprocessor teaching. Results are shown through two-dimensional maps, in which variables can be seen as clusters or groups of ideas. These variables can be used as a guide for developing an eLearning tool. The reliability of the results is also analyzed to check the correct application of the proposed technique.
