Assembly Language Programming

In the Spring of 2008 I taught Wichita State University’s Assembly Language Programming for Engineers course. As explained in the syllabus, the course used the Z80 microprocessor and the GameBoy platform to introduce general concepts of computer architecture, machine and assembly language programming. Students practiced the ideas and concepts introduced in the course with programming projects on the GameBoy. For their final project students in the course wrote a game. We then held a celebratory public event where kids of all ages could play all the games.
