“…Also, students suggested that simulator studies were useful to observe the behavior of the circuit, in response to different input combinations, and made it easier to comprehend theoretical concepts. This finding is supported by the studies of Alsadoon et al (2017), Roy et al (2015) and Stanisavljevic et al (2013).…”

“…Most of the related studies about logic design focus on tool development such as simulators and web-based platforms by using deterministic approaches (Alsadoon et al, 2017;Baneres et al, 2014;El-Din & Krad, 2011;Roy et al, 2015;Shoufan et al, 2015;Stanisavljevic et al, 2013). However, this study follows an instrumentalist perspective and offers a course design based on the acquisitions aimed to be made by the students.…”

“…When literature regarding usage of technology-enhanced learning approaches in Logic Design course is examined, simulator design and usage (Alsadoon et al, 2017;El-Din & Krad, 2011;Nikolic et al, 2009;Roy et al, 2015;Stanisavljevic et al, 2013), web-based platform development (Baneres et al, 2014;Shoufan et al, 2015;Yilmaz et al, 2011) and multimedia enriched applications (Elrazig & Suliman, 2015;Kafes, 2014;Şeker, 2016;Zirve, 2014) have been observed as the main research fields. Roy et al (2015) developed a virtual laboratory for Computer Organization and Logic Design courses to simulate experiments. Shoufan et al (2015) proposed a web-based platform for visualization and animation of logic circuits that provides an environment for lecturers to create lecture notes, assignments and examples, and for students to practice circuit designs.…”

Logic Design is one of the core courses of many engineering programs and provides a foundation for the following hardware courses in the curriculum. In this study, a course design supported by digital open courseware for Logic Design is presented. In this regard, syllabus, slides, laboratory manual handbook including experiment sheets and simulations, experiment videos, assignments and examples were prepared. The aim of this research is to determine the effect of supporting Logic Design course with digital open courseware on student achievement. It also aims to determine students’ opinions regarding this approach. The study follows a mixed methods approach with the pretest-posttest control group experimental research design. The study was conducted at a university in Turkey in spring semester of 2017-2018 academic year with 68 computer engineering students. While the students of experiment group took the course supported with digital open courseware, only regular instruction was used in the control group. The quantitative data were collected from an achievement test including open-ended questions and surveys. The qualitative data were gathered by semi-structured focus group interviews. The findings were meticulously analyzed to provide suggestions for revision of the course. Finally, future work directions were discussed.Key words: Achievement; course design; digital open courseware; engineering education; logic design.

It is not hard to find that the forms of traditional education have limitations. The Virtual Laboratory is to provide a virtual experimental environment to the users via computers in controlling engineering by resorting to the virtual reality technology. It was famous for helping students study the complex process of experiments as well as saving time and cost. Therefore, in the new century, it has become more popular as a means of education. In this paper, we present a virtual geophysical laboratory system (VGLS) based on C#, Viustools, and database technology which can make geophysical education more efficient and effective. Besides, practice has proved that VGLS is a kind of flexible, convenient, and interactive system which can help the users understand and master the laboratory equipment and experimental procedures as well as enhance the efficiency of teaching and learning. In general, it was a practical platform that can be an alternative means of traditional experiments in education which can also meet the requirements of geophysical education. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
