Two students didexpress concerns in the cost and in some of their professors’ abilities to use the technology necessaryto effectively present material through video games. Most comments were similar to this student’s:“Using video games simulations would be very helpful in understanding some of the IE concepts as alot of these concepts are very analytical and complex; some form of visual representation would makeit more interesting and easier to comprehend.” Many students mentioned being visual learners, suchthat the Factorio videos helped them immensely. A few students also mentioned Virtual Reality (VR)games as a possibility for even more realistic visualizations.Question

The directed design approach is used as a prelude to the senior design projects. Whilethe circuit is straightforward, it serves to reinforce the students’ knowledge of linear and digitalcircuits, their ability to analyze and design simple state machines, and their schematic captureand laboratory skills.IntroductionA key tenet for engineering technology is hands-on experiential learning.
