In online education, it is critical for the quality of education to evaluate and grade the assignments or examinations that students upload to the system. However, it is time-consuming to determine how well the circuit drawings prepared for the digital logic course, which is a fundamental course in computer engineering and similar disciplines, are not only correct but also compatible with the truth table. Content-addressable memory (CAM), also known as associative memory, is a data storage and retrieval unit. Typically, it is used instead of the conventional memories in fast-paced and time-sensitive applications such as address lookup in Internet routers, databases, and pattern recognition. CAMs implement the search process by comparing the content itself with a key instead of finding the address like the conventional memories. To see the effect of using binary content-addressable memory-based memory on the time spent scoring hand or digital-drawn logic circuits, it is compared with various data structures commonly used in logic simulation programs. I found a significant relationship (O(1)), indicating that the proposed architecture reduces the time complexity in the search process. This expression is the same as time complexity in hash tables.

As a student-centered learning model, flipped classroom has been increasingly preferred among educators since it has changed the traditional teacher-centered learning model. This study conducted experiments and observations on the flipped classroom for digital logic courses for first-year students in the electrical engineering department of a junior college in Taiwan. Before each class, these students were required to watch the prescribed lecture video units. In class, students discussed with group members after thinking and completed the teacher's requirements by collaboration. In addition to conducting the activities of thinking, discussion, collaboration and observation, these students also got to exercise their expression skills through interactive activities during class time. Analyzing the learning effectiveness with the Panel Data Method (PDM), this study, by comparing and statistically analyzing the data collected during the four years between 2016 and 2019, found that students reaped better learning performance with the flipped classroom model, as shown by a rise in both their average grade and the pass rate.
