This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education through the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) program (CFDA 47.076) provides $400,000 to the University of Florida to develop a gamified curriculum focused on computing hardware fundamentals. Over a three-year period ending January 2025, the University of Florida will collaborate with the University of Kansas to design engaging and collaborative game modules targeting key hardware concepts. These modules will be played on an electronic hardware platform to provide students a systems-level perspective of modern electronic systems. The curriculum seeks to stimulate interest and learning of hardware among diverse groups of students. Evaluation at two universities and high schools will assess the curriculum's ability to address workforce needs in the semiconductor industry through situated and experiential learning approaches. Outcomes will be shared industry-wide to help students adopt emerging technologies.
