“…Also, several different types of kits, such as the Thames & Cosmos Microcontroller Computer System Engineering Kit, the PICDEM Lab Development Kit, the Nerdkits Microcontroller Kit, and the BeagleBone Black Kit, have been designed to help students become experts in the field of microcontrollers . As a result, the concept of creative learning emerged as increased use and application of microcontroller technology across all educational sectors (robotics), Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education typically as a method of teaching students how to use hardware and software (Sell, 2012). Moreover, the accessibility of microcontrollers to the study of physics, arithmetic, engineering, design, and control system analysis makes it a key topic for electrical and electronic learning strategies (Garca et al, 2018;Mabbott, 2014;Barak, 2013;Sell, 2012).…”

The goal of this study was to determine the level of smart electronic device microcontroller development boards were used as teaching tools (BBM) in Penang secondary schools for the teaching and learning of the subject of design and technology (RBT). The effectiveness of using microcontroller development boards as instructional aids and tools (BBM) based on digital technology might enhance the quality of instruction and learning in electronic design provided by RBT teachers. As a result, this article describes the conclusions of the attitudes of RBT teachers towards fuel usage that were based on a microcontroller development board. To conduct the study, 128 RBT teachers who teach electronic design to Form 2 and Form 3 students in secondary schools were given questionnaires. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 26 software was used to perform a descriptive analysis of the data to determine the frequency distribution, percentage, and mean comparison. T-tests were also run to determine whether there was a gender difference. With an average score of 3.93, the results demonstrate that Form 2 and Form 3 RBT teachers had a moderate attitude regarding the employment of microcontroller boards. The t-test results, however, revealed no gender differences between the RBT teachers' use of the microcontroller board. The same research topics were recommended to be broadened to include students in the future and explore the relationship between teachers' attitudes and the use of microcontrollers from a behavioral perspective in Malaysian classrooms.

“…Besides the mentioned work, Sell et al [13] introduced a methodology with its technical concept that helps students to use mechatronics platforms to support coursework and hands-on experiments through the Internet independent of physical place. The developed platform was demonstrated in Estonia and Germany, and the reflections of the experience were reported by Grover et al [14].…”

Mechatronics: Experiential Learning and the Stimulation of Thinking Skills

The development of experiential learning methodologies is gaining attention, due to its contributions to enhancing education quality. It focuses on developing competencies, and build-up added values, such as creative and critical thinking skills, with the aim of improving the quality of learning. The interdisciplinary mechatronics field accommodates a coherent interactive concurrent design process that facilitates innovation and develops the desired skills by adopting experiential learning approaches. This educational learning process is motivated by implementation, assessment, and reflections. This requires synergizing cognition, perception, and behavior with experience sharing and evaluation. Furthermore, it is supported by knowledge accumulation. The learning process with active student’s engagement (participation and investigation) is integrated with experimental systems that are developed to facilitate experiential learning supported by properly designed lectures, laboratory experiments, and integrated with course projects. This paper aims to enhance education, learning quality, and contribute to the learning process, while stimulating creative and critical thinking skills. The paper has adopted a student-centered learning approach and focuses on developing training tools to improve the hands-on experience and integrate it with project-based learning. The developed experimental systems have their learning indicators where students acquire knowledge and learn the target skills through involvement in the process. This is inspired by collaborative knowledge sharing, brainstorming, and interactive discussions. The learning outcomes from lectures and laboratory experiments are synergized with the project-based learning approach to yield the desired promising results and exhibit the value of learning. The effectiveness of the developed experimental systems along with the adopted project-based learning approach is demonstrated and evaluated during laboratory sessions supporting different courses at Sanyo-Onoda City University, Yamaguchi, Japan, and at the American University in Cairo.
