An Online Game for the Digital Electronics Course for Vocational Education and Training (VET) Students

The officially instituted curriculum of the Specialties of Vocational Education Training (VET) in Greece involves a wide set of various teaching models. The aim of these models is to introduce technical and technological education to the students of VET. The learning models implemented in VET as well as their respective teaching scenarios are of many types and are constantly being improved through a loosely defined curriculum development process. In our work, we propose a micro-activity (mu-activity) based on both the inductive image-word model and the learning based on an online game. As a case study, we have implemented a teaching addendum to the chapter Digital Electronics from the lesson "Principles of Electronics" that can be used as a first didactic approach to the subject of Digital Gates.
