This project is a partnership between Michigan Technical University and the College of Lake County to develop course materials and curricula for two-year and four-year technology programs in logic design and hardware modeling using VHDL and FPGAs. The curriculum is being designed to enable these programs to better meet the technician needs of industry and re-configurable computing labs are being established at each institution to support the curriculum. The labs are also being used as part of a collaborative undergraduate research program between the two institutions. To further support the curriculum, principal investigators from both Michigan Technical University and the College of Lake County are co-leading faculty development workshops covering both content and pedagogical knowledge. The materials developed by the project are being disseminated without charge through a project website while the results on student learning and professional development are being disseminated through conference and journal publications. The project includes rigorous formative and summative evaluation plans with both qualitative and quantitative components coordinated by an independent evaluator. The project includes an outreach effort to high school students from underrepresented groups.

该项目是密歇根技术大学和湖县学院之间的合作伙伴关系，旨在为使用VHDL和FPGA的逻辑设计和硬件建模的两年制和四年制技术课程开发课程材料和课程。 该课程的设计是为了使这些计划能够更好地满足行业的技术需求，并在每个机构建立可重新配置的计算实验室，以支持课程。 这些实验室也被用作两个机构之间合作的本科生研究计划的一部分。 为了进一步支持课程，来自密歇根技术大学和湖县学院的主要研究人员共同领导涵盖内容和教学知识的教师发展研讨会。 该项目编写的材料通过一个项目网站免费传播，而学生学习和专业发展的成果则通过会议和期刊出版物传播。 该项目包括严格的形成性和总结性评价计划，由一名独立评价员协调质量和数量两个组成部分。该项目包括向代表性不足群体的高中生开展外展工作。
