Summary/Abstract: The laboratory activities for an undergraduate course on digital design are normally developed around a physical platform. After the COVID19 prevention measures were established the activities had to move online, thus, the professors had to find some rapid solutions to preserve the initial goals of the laboratory. This article discusses the goals of such laboratory (in relation to the broad engineering domain), how are these goals fulfilled by a physical platform and what was the online solution that was developed to overcome the challenges. Furthermore, the opinions of students that were attending the both types of activities (physical and online) are presented.
