Engineering Education, 2023Integration of VHDL Simulations and Written Reflections to Improve StudentUnderstanding of Sequential Logic Circuits1. IntroductionReflection is known to be a valuable tool that can enhance student learning. Although thebenefits of self-reflection are well-known, it is under-utilized in engineering education. Thus,there is a growing body of research on how to promote and deploy reflective activities in theengineering classroom (Benson).One recent development is the integration of computer-aided simulation tools and writtenreflections (Dickerson). Computer-aided simulation tools provide students with the ability topredict the behaviors of complex systems without having to concern themselves with everysingle detail of the
