reference to thedefinition of bits in timer 2’s control register which is provided in the microcontroller’s datasheet.Cognitive load theory predicts that when these elements are spatially or temporally separated,such as refer- ring to a textbook, a datasheet, and traditional source code, additional extraneousload is imposed to successfully integrate these elements. Because LP encourages including allthese elements as a part of the document, as shown in Figure 2(b), we hypothesize that the use ofliterate programs will reduce extraneous load, thereby improving students’ ability to master theseconcepts, which will lead to higher test scores.We investigated the impact of LP in a digital system design course because modern hardwaredescription languages
