Interactive approach to Digital Logic

Digital systems are designed to store, process, and communicate information in digital form, widely used in different spheres both of everyday life and science, including education, process control, digital instruments, computer science, robotics, telecommunications etc. In order to understand how digital systems are operated, basic knowledge of digital circuits and their logical function is required. Digital Logic is the topic shared between three courses taught at the Virovitica College (Mathematics I, Digital electronics, Computer Architecture) as a part of the Undergraduate Professional Study of Electrical Engineering. In this paper interactive approach to the topic of Digital Logic is presented. This is achieved in few steps: students are introduced to the theoretical background of the topic and computational simulation of digital circuits are performed. Based on the theory and simulations, practical exercises at the Laboratory for Electrical Engineering have been done.
