Abstract :
In this study, an ongoing Project named FPGA Based Digital Electronics Education (FPGA_b_DEEP) is introduced and the advantages of FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Arrays) technology which brought to digital design area are dealt with by using a case study. The Project aims to develop instructive and attractive examples to teach Digital Electronics efficiently and faster. In addition to this, PBL(Project Based Learning) method and Micro Learning method are dealt with at the study separately. PBL method has been used partially at the Project and the studies on Micro Learning for association with the Project are going on recently.
