“…Although there were several contributions on the inclusion of IoT into the education domain [27,28], there is still a lack of consolidated and coherent view on this topic [21], and there are several socio-technological challenges associated with it [29]. There is also a minimal number of educational applications that take advantage of IoT's potential in the learning process and are appropriate for lower grades of formal education, as the majority of applications targets higher education [27,30,31] or secondary education [32]. Despite opportunities for data collection, processing and visualization made possible with IoT devices for STEM activities [21,27,30], very few studies have focused on how the potential of IoT can be realized in primary education [27].…”

Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation is linked to skin cancer. Children are more vulnerable to UV harmful effects compared to adults. Children’s active involvement in using Internet of Things (IoT) devices to collect and analyze real-time UV radiation data is suggested to increase their awareness of UV protection. This quasi-experimental pre-test post-test control group study implemented light sensors in a STEM inquiry-based learning environment focusing on UV radiation and protection in primary education. This exploratory, small-scale study investigated the effect of a STEM environment implementing IoT devices on 6th graders’ knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors about UV radiation and protection. Participants were 31 primary school students. Experimental group participants (n = 15) attended four eighty-minute inquiry-based lessons on UV radiation and protection and used sensors to measure and analyze UV radiation in their school. Data sources included questionnaires on UV knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors administered pre- and post-intervention. Statistically significant learning gains were found only for the experimental group (t14 = −3.64, p = 0.003). A statistically significant positive behavioral change was reported for experimental group participants six weeks post-intervention. The study adds empirical evidence suggesting the value of real-time data-driven approaches implementing IoT devices to positively influence students’ knowledge and behaviors related to socio-scientific problems affecting their health.

“…By offering communication between devices, SLEs provide quick and easy access to learning materials and activities even when students are away from the classroom [30]. Many studies have shown that integration of IoT and mobile technologies in the learning process increases the level of students' knowledge, their motivation, productivity, and satisfaction [3,37,64,67].…”

“…The questionnaire was based on the standard USE (usefulness, satisfaction, and ease of use) questionnaire with four groups of 5-point Likert scale questions (usefulness, ease of use, ease of learning, satisfaction) [46], but also included open questions for describing problems and giving suggestions. A similar questionnaire has been successfully used for the assessment of the application of IoT and mobile technologies in different contexts [64]. The reliability and the validity were assessed using Cronbach's alpha [12,13], which was 0.950.…”

“…Additionally, with the development of SLEs, new forms of teaching approaches and aids have evolved, game-based learning being one of them [2,39,64]. As a form of entertainment created for stimulating the learning process, game-based learning relies on visual materials, didactics, and less formal styles of presentation to present knowledge in the form of a game [60,65].…”

This article presents a game-based learning model implemented in a smart learning environment. The goal is to determine students' interest, willingness to participate, and impressions about game-based learning, which takes place in interaction with the smart classroom. The educational game was designed and implemented by harnessing advanced web, mobile, Internet of Things (IoTs) technologies, and augmented reality and integrated into an e-learning ecosystem based on Moodle platform. The game aimed to test students' knowledge in the field of IoT. For the evaluation, an experiment was conducted within the IoT-related courses at the Faculty of Organizational Sciences, University of Belgrade. The results show that the proposed approach has a positive impact on the learning process and that the integration of educational games into common learning management systems is a good practice for extending common formal learning models. The proposed approach is expected to contribute to introducing smart learning environments into the learning process in higher education.

“…Technology, such as digital tablet, is critical to assisting students in learning (Billman et al, 2018;Ibrahim et al, 2016). The rapid development of technology requires the realization of technology using smart internet or mobile internet as technological progress (Dalkilic et al, 2017;Stojanović et al, 2020;J.

Student’s perception is the student's assessment of something or information. The objective of this study was to discover how students' general perceptions and gender differences in electronic modules of mathematical physics. The research type is survey-based research with quantitative approach. The research population consists of physics education students from Universitas Jambi with the sample of 80 students from class A and class B. The data analysis techniques used in the study are descriptive statistics analysis and inferential data analysis using t-tests. The results showed that, overall, students have a positive perception with a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.011 < 0.005, which means that there is a significant difference in students’ perception. The perception of class A students with gender differences has a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.003, while the grade B students have a Sig. (2 tailed) values of 0.020 and 0.013. This means that class A and classs B students have a discernible difference of perception. Student’s perception may be used as a determining factor in the choice of learning materials. This research can be used as a guideline for the development of student perception assessment in the electronic module of Mathematical Physics in the future. The update of this study aims to compare students' perceptions of the overall online module of mathematics and gender differences.
