strengths of developingprograms that foster critical thinking, problem-solving, and analyticalreasoning skills using strategies like the engineering design process (EDP) [1],[2]. By engaging in these programs, students learn to apply conceptualknowledge from science and related subjects, including engineering, to solveopen-ended and ill-defined problems creatively [3], [4]. These skills can alsoprepare autistic students to succeed in real-world contexts [5]. We createdengineering maker clubs in public schools across New York City to provideinclusive spaces for elementary, middle, and high school students. We aimedto enhance co-designing and develop technological knowledge andengineering skills in autistic and non-autistic students. These clubs are

well.IntroductionDigital logic design is a topic required by most ECE programs, based on curricularecommendations of IEEE and ABET. In such courses, students are taught how to design digitalcircuits to produce a set of output signals from a set of inputs through use of logic gates,registers, multiplexers, and other fundamental components. Students are also taughtfundamentals such as Boolean algebra, sequential logic, finite state machines, and combinationallogic. These skills are required to learn more complex concepts, for example, computerarchitecture, networking, and electronic systems. Thus, an early exposure to digital logic isnecessary for engineering students.As technology advances, universities and colleges struggle to prepare students for the tools
