Considerable debate in the57 literature has grappled with the criteria which truly cons tutes a PBL experience. Thomas [28] proposed58 five criteria for a PBL experience: “Centrality”, “Driving Ques on”, “Construc ve Inves ga ons”,59 “Autonomy”, and “Realism”. Based on these criteria, projects need to be the essen al part of the60 curriculum and students need to achieve the course learning objec ves by doing the projects.

research makes the case that curriculum improvements andfirsthand learning in the classroom can raise retention rates [2].One of the core subjects in most scientific degrees and all electrical engineering programs is digitalelectronics [3]. Digital electronics forms the foundation of modern technology, enabling the designand function of computers, smartphones, and countless other devices. Issues arising from thecomplexity of concepts, teaching methods, and course structure contribute to challenges faced bystudents. Resources and approaches are available to ease learning in this area. The study of digitalelectronics involves electronic circuits used to process and control digital signals, with a focus onthe design process of combinational and

The innovative idea of this paper is to develop students with skills that is to utilize a commercialμC or μP to complete application design in the second phase. Furthermore, utilizing a HDL to model thelearned μC or μP so as to shorten the learning curve of designing a custom processor or digitalperipheral circuits in the third phase. The benefit of including the use of a specific μC or μP in the secondphase is to let the students immerse in the delicate design process such as programming in assemblylanguage, so students can accomplish project development in the middle of the program.

engineering programs house writing orcommunication programs or centers to support engineering instructors in writing pedagogies [5,6]. Communication experts often oversee these institutional organizations to incorporate writing-intensive curricula within engineering programs. These models are robust approaches tointegrating writing into the curriculum [7] and/or training engineering faculty in writingpedagogies [8,9]. Nevertheless, not all engineering programs possess the financial resources ortime to allocate support for such extensive and customized writing instruction. According to asurvey result (n = 190) conducted by Buswell et al. [10], numerous engineering instructorshighlight significant challenges in incorporating more writing into their

The laboratory curriculum included twodissection labs, three Design-Build-Test (DBT) labs and a semester-long BeetleBot project, toprovide practical exposure to mechanical engineering concepts. We sought to understand howengineering students drew connections between the lab content and engineering design. Thecourse was assessed in Fall 2022 at the end of the semester through a voluntary, anonymousGoogle form survey that included questions about student impressions of the lab course. Thesurvey recorded which labs were perceived by students as being most integrated with engineeringdesign and which key aspects of engineering design (derived from the

Researchers effectively argue the casefor incorporating practical components into engineering classes, emphasizing the value ofproblem-based or project-based learning (PBL) which aims to bridge theoretical knowledge withreal-world applications [6].Numerous literatures present some innovative designs of hands-on laboratory practice under theengineering course curriculum.

among faculty on the actual purpose oflaboratory [7] [8]. At present, most students have access to laboratory equipment only duringscheduled lab times for 2-3 hours per week and laboratory experiments are one-off procedure“cook-book” modules rather than extended projects [8]. Increases in computing power haveenabled new types of remote-control laboratory equipment accessed from home, smallinexpensive kits that can be shipped to students, and advanced simulation software rather thanhardware experimentation [8] [6].Laboratories have been relatively less studied in the literature than other parts of the engineeringcurriculum and what results exist suggest a potentially negative impact of laboratories on studentepistemology.
