Abstract
Recently, the importance of the internet of things (IoT) education has been emphasized due to the progress of research on IoT technology. Therefore, universities require an efficient IoT course. In this paper, we propose an undergraduate IoT course using the Bluetooth function of smartphone and Arduino kit. The proposed embedded IoT class uses the Bluetooth capabilities of the smartphone to connect Arduino and activate various sensors to encourage students to become interested in the class. According to students' midterm and final exam scores, students programming skills have been improved since students' projects were in progress during the course. Further, according to students' survey, the proposed IoT class is very effective in understanding the embedded IoT and 75% of the students satisfied with the proposed course.
