Explore the Internet of Things with Arduino Education

Innovate, create, transform: take your first step in building internet-connected objects

Arduino Explore IoT Kit allows you to build your next smart project. Ever wanted an automated house? Or a smart garden? Well, now it’s easy with the Arduino IoT Cloud compatible boards. It means: you can connect devices, visualize data, control and share your projects from anywhere in the world.
 

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a giant network of connected devices that collect and share data from all over the world, and it’s changing the way we live, work, and study. Learning about the IoT requires students to understand and use different tools, technologies, and programming languages.

 

 

 

The IT skills gap is growing. Topping employers’ list of concerns is a lack of IT skills in emerging technologies, such as the Internet of Things. Learning IoT skills now, using advanced industry- standard technology, tools, and processes, will help students succeed in their future careers. They’ll gain the knowledge they need to tackle the demands of the IT industry - and the more relevant their learning, the more likely they are to secure better, higher-paying jobs.

With the Arduino Explore IoT Kit, you can get advanced high school and college students started with creating connected devices quickly and easily. They’ll learn how to build internet-connected objects by following the content with step-by-step tutorials for ten different activities - fun, creative experiments with real-life components. 

Teach students to innovate, investigate, and explore with connected devices that use sensors, automation, protocols, and graphing to collect data they can analyze and learn from. Students will also learn to control objects remotely using a digital IoT dashboard, called the Arduino IoT Cloud, which stores and displays real-time data through an intuitive plug-and-play connection that simplifies their projects. They’ll learn how to use the online Web IDE, or code editor, a web server on a microcontroller, CSS,HTML, as well as PIR, moisture, gyro, capacitive touch sensors, and much more.

Create connections, decompose complex problems into simpler parts, allow students to innovate, and enhance their understanding of real-world technology with Arduino Explore IoT Kit

 

The MKR IoT Carrier

The Arduino Explore IoT Kit includes a MKR IoT Carrier, which was specially developed for this kit. 

The MKR IoT Carrier is an extension of your board and it has been thought to help students and teachers  to focus more on prototyping  ideas and programming, and less on the wiring and troubleshooting  by making it easier to build your circuits  using plug-and play connections. 

With the Arduino Explore IoT Kit, you can get advanced high school and college students started with creating connected devices quickly and easily. They’ll learn how to build internet-connected objects by following the content with step-by-step tutorials for ten different activities - fun, creative experiments with real-life components.

The activities in the kit teach students to write, deploy, and interact with code through a web- based integrated development environment (IDE) and cloud-based dashboards. Students learn how to collect and present data while getting an introduction to network safety and security issues. With each activity, students gain more tools to design and make their own projects or tweak existing ones.

All the activities adopt a learning-by-doing approach, through which students acquire knowledge step-by-step by constructing fully functional solutions, including experiments, challenges and building meaningful applications. The activities are linked to everyday life, providing students with an invaluable understanding of advanced technology and how it works in the world around them.
