strengthen constructive concept-based learning and critical thinking for the students and support laboratory analysis. Besides, several online quizzes were developed using a pool of questions related to each topic. Assessments and survey results are used to evaluate the performance of the suggested teaching approach. In addition, students’ micro-lectures are used to improve lifelong learning skills and create an interactive teaching environment with the instructor and other students.

was composed of lecture periods (twice a week; one hour each) and a weekly labsession (once a week; two hours per week). The staffing included a graduate teaching assistantto assist students. Lecture periods were sprinkled with collaborative active exercises. Studentswere encouraged to work in teams on the lecture active exercises and on laboratory tasks. Theinstructor often had to expressly direct the collaborative effort as most students would choose towork alone if given the choice. The complexity of VHDL and the overhead of tool chain processeslargely prohibited the use of the synthesis tools in-class for the active exercises.In-class active exercises were mostly focused on the design approach for a particular problem, withstudents
