Abstract
The closed-lab environment has been used successfully in the Computer Science curriculum. This paper proposes a set of laboratories, that combine the use of hands-on techniques and logic simulation. During a semester, students in Computer Systems Organization classes design and implement a working model of a complete system: OBC.

Effective closed labs in early CS courses: lessons from eight terms of action research
SIGCSE '12: Proceedings of the 43rd ACM technical symposium on Computer Science EducationWe report on best practices we have established to teach first-year computer science students in closed laboratories, founded on over three years of action research in a large introductory discrete mathematics and digital logic course. Our practices ...
