Abstract:

Nowadays still more and more students "suffer" with problems when they are pushed to think creatively. Especially in the field of computer engineering, the students rather use the ready-made libraries, instead of creating something own. It is of course faster, but cutting-edge technologies rarely provide related files. Then the implementation solution lies on the mixture of creativity and experience. In our paper we focused on the IoT problematic. We are introducing the IoT system built on well-known, Arduino-friendly parts. The system serves as a perfect educational tool for experimental teaching of IoT principles. The system was successfully implemented in the teaching courses for Slovak high-school students as well as for the visiting students from the French university. In the paper, the system structure will be described in detail followed by the discussion about the results of experimental teaching .
