Chip design has traditionallybeen offered at the graduate or senior level. It is one of the marvels of modern technology thathas revolutionized our world and appears completely unapproachable to the uninitiated.However, the subject has proven to be quite accessible to freshmen.

As might be expected, the students performing the best on the in-class testsconsistently completed their assignments within a few days while the other students usually tookmore than a week. Since our system time stamps the code submissions, it would be possible tofactor into the grade the length of time required to complete an assignment in order to reward thestudents who turn in their solutions

The study shows that students taught via games performed just as high asthose subject to a traditional lecture. However, students showed an overwhelming preference forlearning via games rather than a traditional lecture.As demonstrated by these studies, there is much room in the education sphere for gamified learningprograms that can spur an interest in students.
