"Teaching and learning computer engineering laboratory has many challenges simulation and visualization can greatly help students learn to design digital logic. The proposed model includes; simulation software, and instructional videos of lab equipment, tools, and lab assignments. The simulation software includes MultiSim and open source circuit simulation software, module activities, and virtual environment for student to work out circuit designs before building actual circuits. To facilitate student learning, initial logic circuit layouts are done by students in simulation and then students build actual logic circuits. This way they can experience the labs in simulation before the actual lab. The videos will help students “see” how to use the tools and equipment, and experience the lab activity before the actual design. Final the students can then compare results from calculations, simulations, and actual circuitry.
