Abstract
Assembly language programming of the Motorola MC68000 microprocessor is taught to post-graduate students in the department of Computer Science at Queens University of Belfast in a course entitled "Microcomputer Architecture and Programming". Due to the large number and complexity of the 68000's instructions an interactive tutorial system was developed, using HyperCard and HyperTalk, to enhance existing teaching methods. The system, although aimed at courses teaching MC68000 programming, would be a useful introduction to low level programming theory on courses teaching computer architecture or assembly language programming.
