In this class students learn the building blocks of digitalsystems and how to put them together to reach larger systems. For implementation purposes,students additionally learn a hardware description language such as VHDL to model theircircuits, and then use FPGA chips, cutting-edge technology, to physically build and test theircircuits described in VHDL. In this paper we address the challenges faced in teaching VHDLmodeling and FPGA synthesis in such an introductory course, and then share our

considerablysimilar to the Web environment of today3. The concept of hypertext, presented by Ted Nelson in1965, brought forth the possibilities of using the computer to form documents of arbitrarystructure4. With the advent of the personal computer and the development of hypertext systemsin the mid-1980s, it was a simple jump for educators to promote the use of electronic portfolios.This eliminated the “at most one” problem as it is easy to provide multiple copies of anelectronic document. Hypertext also allows a better structural representation of the thoughtprocess involved in the learning process, as it can better show how a portfolio entry was theproduct of the synthesis of a variety of ideas.With the rise of the World Wide Web there has been increased
