IntroductionDigital hardware design has been considered as core education contents for ElectricalEngineering Technology (EET) programs for more than two decades. As a result, a whole set ofmethodologies, such as truth table, canonical sum-of-products expressions, and Karnaugh mapsfor combinational circuit, and finite state machine, state diagram, state table, and stateassignment for sequential circuit, have been well-developed to analyze and design digitalcircuits1.

It takes some courage to go back and review and criticize one’s ownactivities. The After Action Reports give students the extra courage and incentive to go back andrevisit and analyze their exam errors.Most students appear to appreciate this educational and useful experience. Some do not find itnecessarily pleasant because it reminds them of their mistakes. In addition, After Action Reports(AAR) require more work for students because they are required to review, search, analyze, and
