the classroom more interactive. This helps studentssee right away if they're doing things right or wrong so they can fix mistakes as they go.In the early 1900s, a researcher named Jean Piaget found that kids understand things better whenthey do hands-on activities instead of just hearing facts [1]. And other experts like Meyers andJones agree that learning is more effective when students are actively involved, like reading,writing, talking, solving problems, or answering questions in a thoughtful way [2].Also, many studies have shown that technology and hands-on activities can help studentsunderstand how theory connects to real-life situations in engineering projects. This kind oflearning, called experimental-centric-based instructional

The above-mentioned topics will be sufficient tointroduce the fundamentals of digital electronics and establish the reason behind the digital revolutionbut not to discuss computer engineering yet. There are many books addressing these topics, so theseare not the subject of this paper.After the first phase of learning, students can build digital systems with discrete logic ICs or PLD devices.The second phase of teaching or

After observing high school STEM teachers facilitate the designed learningunit, we will interview them about their perceptions on this teaching framework and
