Arduino makes it easy to connect objects and computers. As a result, programming learning using physical computing has been proposed as an effective alternative to SW training for beginners. In this paper, we propose an Arduino-based physical computing education method that can be applied to basic programming subjects. To this end, we propose a basic programming training method based on Arduino analog signals. Currently, physical computing courses focus on digital control when connecting input sensors and output devices in Arduino. However, the contents of programming education using analog signals of Arduino boards are insufficient. In this paper, we proposed and tested the teaching method used for programming education using low-cost materials used for Arduino analog signal-based computing.

In this paper, we implemented the pattern matching with the Arduino and App Inventor platform under the bluetooth mobile environment between Android phone and Arduino Platform. The combination between Arduino and App Inventor makes the feasibility of Android programming easy by wireless communications and provides the opportunity to broaden the functionality for mobile device. We used the softwares which were Arduino IDE, VC++, OpenCV, Processing and App Inventor. And also compared the performance of mobile Arduino platform with LabView GUI programming, we reduced the usage of libraries that compiled and executed the pattern matching programming. We experimented the mobile embedded platform performance under bluetooth communication and verified the functionality of the mobile Arduino platform design for identifying the pattern matching.

In this paper, we proposed a method for digital logic circuit control, through arduino device programming with digital outputs, to design a curriculum for basic digital logic circuit practices. Curricula for arduino device programming and digital logic circuit are essentially practiced in engineering departments of colleges or high schools in South Korea. However, actual practice course lacks the experimental examples of digital logic circuit combined with arduino device programming. Furthermore, actual practice course lacks the curriculum in that students design and test their own digital logic circuits with the less cost than the oscilloscope. Therefore, to solve these problems in this paper, we proposed a curriculum for basic digital logic circuit practices during one semester. In this curriculum, students control and experiment their own digital logic circuits through arduino device programming with digital outputs.

In this paper, we have selected physical computing as the focused learning elements with the PBL-based programming instruction method. Students experienced physical computing by using Arduino. Development of robot using Arduino can create an effective educational environment and also provide solutions for lack of environmental conditions, such as time or spatial factor restrictions and excessive expense issues; these are major obstacles to developing robot programming education. Finally, we analyzed the effects on growth of student's logical thinking and problem solving abilities by demonstrating the Arduino application courseware to the field of education.

In this paper, I propose a presentation examples of the development of teaching materials using Arduino. For this purpose, a six-step low-cost microcontroller teaching-learning development model was used, the steps being topic selection, exploration of implementation methods, experimentation, production of teaching and learning materials, implementing lesson plans, and improvement. After analyzing the composition of the source code and circuits introduced in the existing Arduino book, this content was reconstructed to fit the programming education context. A simple method of constructing a circuit using materials such as Arduino and a piezo buzzer is proposed to save time on circuit composition. Using this circuit, examples of use in teaching-learning activities for various programming content elements are presented. The core concept of this study is that it provides a direct experience of the content of C language programming exercises that can only be found on existing screens.

We propose an practical embodiment-based programming training course for middle school students using Arduino and conduct survey before and after the curriculum. Arduino is an open source physical computing platform that integrates the IDE used in processing language. It is a low-cost, relatively simple I/O interface compared to other platforms, and because of its practical formability, it is educational material suitable for programming. Subsequent surveys will provide feedback on changes in cognition of programming needs and improvement in thinking skills. In this study, the program based on embody-based programming using Arduino was conducted for 8 weeks for each first grade, and 112 middle school students for two years from '16 to '17. Based on the theoretical and practical training, the training was based on the application of the ultrasonic sensor to the RC car and the preparation of the adduction quadrotor drone. The purpose of this study is to prove that the recognition, necessity, and programming education of middle school students are effective for the improvement of thinking ability through the program based on embody-based programming using Arduino.

Engineers increasingly rely on computers and their computer programming skills for their works. As a result, most engineering curricula have introduced a computer programming courses. However, students consider the subject to be unrelated to their core interests and often feel uncomfortable when learning to program for the first time. To overcome these difficulties, several studies have proposed the use of physical computing paradigm. This paradigm takes the computational concepts out of the PC screen and into the real world so that the student can interact with them. This paper proposes Arduino platform as a tool for attracting interest of the programming and reports the results of questionnaire survey analysis.

This study analyzed the influencing factors of learning engagement and teaching presence in online programming practice classes. The subjects of this study were students enrolled in an industrial specialized high school, who practiced creating Arduino circuits and programming using a web-based virtual practice tool called Tinkercad. This research adopted a tool that can measure task value, learning flow, learning engagement, and teaching presence. Based on this analysis, learning flow had a mediating effect between task value and online learning engagement, as well as between task value and teaching presence. Increasing learning engagement in online classes requires sensitizing the learners about task value, using hands-on platforms available online, and expanding interaction with instructors to increase learning flow of students. Furthermore, using virtual hands-on tools in online programming classes is relevant in increasing learning engagement. Future research tasks include: confirming the effectiveness of online learning engagement and teaching presence through pre- and post-tests, and conducting research on various practical subjects.

In this paper, we present a 5W1H programming model for IT non-experienced people who are not familiar with computer programming and those who need programming education. Based on this model, we can design a development tool that can be easily programmed by beginners. This development tool is a programming method applying the 5W1H concept and constructs a sentence to satisfy the control condition of 'Who, When, Where, What, and How', which is the sentence element of 5W1H. Therefore, the user can easily develop the target system as if constructing the sentence without learning the programming language of the target system. In this paper, to verify the effectiveness of the 5W1H programming model proposed in this paper, we applied the concept of 5W1H programming to Arduino and developed the development tool and performed the first verification and applied the second verification to the speech recognition smart home development platform.
