LogiCraft is an interactive digital logic circuit simulator that helps students, educators, and instructional designers build, test, and analyze logic circuits through a visual canvas interface. It supports hands-on learning in digital logic, computer architecture, and electronics by combining drag-and-drop design, real-time simulation.
To make the best use of this resource, educators should align activities with specific learning outcomes, such as understanding Boolean algebra, combinational logic, sequential circuits, or debugging circuit behavior. Instructors can start with guided templates, then ask students to modify or extend circuits to explore how changes affect outputs. Academic developers and instructional designers can integrate the tool into labs, flipped classrooms, or assessments by creating project-based tasks that require students to design, simulate, and explain their work. For example, a digital logic course could use LogiCraft for a lab on multiplexers or flip-flops, while a computer architecture course could use it to model adders and control logic. The tool is especially effective when paired with reflection questions, collaborative design tasks, or short exercises that require students to justify their circuit choices.
In academic practice, LogiCraft can be used to support accessibility by offering a visual and interactive alternative to static diagrams, making concepts easier to understand for diverse learners. It can also support collaboration when students share circuits, compare designs, and troubleshoot together. For instructional designers, the platform offers a flexible environment for building scaffolded learning activities across beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels. By combining hands-on experimentation with guided instruction,

This Open Educational Resource (OER) provides educators with a practical checklist for designing gamified learning experiences in Canvas. Grounded in Self-Determination Theory, it offers actionable strategies to enhance student motivation, engagement, and participation by supporting autonomy, competence, and relatedness within an inclusive, student
The AI Integration Review (AIR), developed by GenAI:N3, is a reflective resource designed to support educators in reviewing and developing their use of generative AI in teaching and learning. It encourages critical reflection, informed decision-making and thoughtful integration of AI into academic practice.
The final report of UCC’s SATLE-funded Smart Support? AI-assisted school placement project. It examines how Professional Master of Education student teachers use generative AI during school placement, how their AI literacy and professional judgement develop, and the implications for teacher education and placement partnerships.
