碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 資訊教育研究所 === 92 === The purpose of this study was to investigate the learning effectiveness of Digital Logic Lab course with digital circuit computer-simulation software and CPLD experimental modules for vocational high school students in Division of Electrical Engineering. Quasi-experimental design and two-way analysis of variance were used for the study. The instruments consisted of two post-tests and an attitude questionnaire toward the computer-simulation teaching method. Two groups of senior students, the control group and experimental group, participated in this study. Both groups were instructed on the same topics covered in this study for sixteen weeks, and received post-tests. The experimental group also filled out the attitude questionnaire toward the computer-simulation teaching method. The findings and conclusions were listed as follows: A. The results of this study revealed that after sixteen weeks of learning, the learning effectiveness of the computer-simulation teaching method was significantly better than that of the traditional practice teaching method. B. The attitude questionnaire toward the computer-simulation teaching method revealed that most students of the experimental group held positive attitudes. Key words: computer-simulation software, Digital Logic Lab course, CPLD, learning effectiveness.
