underrepresented groups[7, 9, 14, 15, 16].To mitigate student stress, some works address its symptoms by using stress-reduction/copingtechniques during and/or outside of the classroom. Some of these techniques involve mindfulnessactivities, changing students perception of stress, interventions, sending students encouragingemails before exams, etc. [2, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23]. Other works even redesign their wholecurriculum to reduce student stress [24]. It is important to note that most of stress-related researchis focused on medical students and rarely addresses engineering students.In this work, we address the direct causes of student stress in an Electrical and ComputerEngineering (ECE) course at our institution – the Digital Systems course – and

It is asummative assessment used to evaluate students learning outcomes and is often directly related totheir grades. It also can be treated as a formative assessment that provides students feedback tocorrect their misconceptions and improve their future learning.

It usually introduces students to important continuous and discrete time system conceptsand develops and applies Laplace, Fourier and z-transforms. These courses usually do not have laboratories orhands-on activity associated with them. However, these courses are very important because they provide thefoundation for important areas of electrical engineering including circuits, systems, communications, control andsignal processing. Unfortunately, many students do not recognize the relevance of the material at this point in their careersand have difficulty because it appears to be "only math and theory.” The resulting low motivation often
