Microcontroller/Motherboard analogy
use software to simulate
Motherboard represents a topic
world wide web represents all knowledge
| Concept | Microcontroller |
| is connected to all terms used for this concept | is connected to every single pin |
| is only understood when you understand the terms used to explain this concept | only works when the pins are connected |
| what is understood | what is supplied with voltage |
| a concept only gets useful when it is connected to the real world in a distant way | a microcontroller is only useful when the motherboard is connected to something else |
| many professors explain the formula without explaining what the terms in the formula mean and where they come from | you put the microcontroller onto the motherboard without powering the pins |
| how a whole lecture is useful ffor real world tasks | how the motherboard is useful for a real world machine to work |
| the teacher uses concepts to explain something the student doesnt know | the microcontroller is connected to pins that are not under voltage |
| each concepts is related to something, age requires a person of which you take the age | you put the microcontroller onto its socket |
| misunderstandings | incorrect wiring |
