In recent years, many educators adopt computer simulation technology in the teaching of some topics or courses which include dy- namic interactions between components. For years, many concepts of networking have been taught based on

The costadvantage held by discrete logic devices for the last several decades has evaporated. The advantagesCPLDs have are in production costs, board area savings, operating performance, reliability, time tomarket, programmability, electromagnetic interference, and design security [3]. Over the last decade,the rapid acceleration of adopting CPLDs has left a pedagogical mess.The typical engineering and engineering technology fundamental digital electronics course, up untilrecently, has reflected the history of digital design.

Environmental Engineering, 1947 N. 12th Street,Philadelphia, PA 19122ABSTRACT It is a known fact that most engineering problems are complex and challenging, therebyrequiring the collective skills, experiences, and knowledge of several engineers to tackle them. Asa result, many potential engineering employers consider the ability to work in teams an essentialand sought-after skill when hiring new talents. In cognizance of the afore-stated fact, theAccreditation Board of Engineering and Technology emphasizes, as one of its criteria, thepreparation of students to function in high performing teams upon completion of their studies.Consequently, this survey study seeks to explore the effectiveness of teamwork and team-basedlearning as perceived by
