revisions and expansions to the lab environment. For instance, in the case of anotherelectronics course that utilizes different versions or manufacturers of instruments, developers caneasily extend the virtual lab to accommodate these new requirements with minimal changes. Thisprimarily involves updating the graphical model to reflect the different appearances of the newinstruments. Additionally, the physical model may be modified if there is a need to adjust thesimulation of the instruments’ physical behaviors, such as their interactions or movements withinthe virtual space. The functional model often remains unchanged, as the core functions of similarinstruments in electronics labs typically stay consistent. Figure 3 illustrates the three types

the explainedcontent, giving the option to repeat the video and the quiz if the student so wishes. In terms of thepractical part, after the students watch the video and take the quiz, they are ready to put intopractice the knowledge acquired using the workstation, the applications and the correspondingpractice board for the course. To support the students in this practical part, step-by-step tutorials(figure 9) have been developed for each practice, which are fully illustrative and realistic, givingthe students the appropriate accompaniment so that the level of confusion is minimum whencreating a circuit. Similarly, to the explanatory videos for the practices, reflective questions(figure 10) have been developed that guide the students in the

structure the meaning of the song. In the CS0 course, Python lists, dicts, and stringoperations are reviewed. In the CS1 course, we review the construction and freeing of memorywhen building singly and doubly linked lists in C++. And in the CS2 course, we review the lists,trees, queues, stacks, heaps, STL, and graph data structures covered in the class.The lyrics of Superstition also reflect the recursive case and base case of the groove flow. Whenhe is playing the “recursive case: groove, repetitive measures, he lists common superstitions.“Very superstitious, Writing's on the wall / Very superstitious, Ladders bout' to fall.” But whenhe plays the “base case” groove, he implores with the listener to not fall for superstitions. As hesings “when you

Next, we describethe building and usage of SAMCares. Finally, we provide potential challenges and limitations andend with concluding remarks.MethodsThe primary goal of this research is to investigate whether GenAI tools (especially text generationtools) can enhance students’ learning experience and consequently improve their academic perfor-mance. To create such a tool SAMCares that can address and adapt to the varied educational needsof students, reflecting our commitment to enhancing the quality and accessibility of learning ex-periences in higher

limitation is mostlikely due to the FPGA’s ability to connect two ALMs during the routing process, where a wirewith a width larger than 1120 cannot be connected between two ALMs. The data we report onlygoes up to a maximum bit-width of 1024, so this limitation is not reflected in our graphs. Also,the Goldschmidt divider has a smaller range than the other dividers because it was not able tosynthesize above a width of 244. This is due to the limited number of DSP blocks.4.1 AreaThe FPGA used in these tests is the 5CGXFC9E7F35C8 from the Cyclone V line. This FPGA ischosen due to its large amount of available ALMs and DSP blocks. The maximum ALMs that ourFPGA has in this study is 113,560. Very few dividers in this study approached this maximumnumber of
