Abstract

<p>The challenge study is a project based learning curriculum at Technical High School aimed at the construction ofawireless communication system. The first period was engineering issues in the construction of an artificial satellite and the second period was apositional locating system based on the general purpose wire-less device—ZigBee device. The effectiveness of the program was evaluated on the basis of participants’ satisfaction and a metamorphosis in the learning and understanding of wire-less telecommunication technology.</p>

Highlights

  • Project-Based Learning (PBL) at technical high schools showsanabundance of variety

  • Arduinos were programmed by standalone mode and the mBed was programmed by a computer connected to cloud programming environment, copying library programs descriptions for the ZigBee. These results suggest that this program is suitable for the execution of the Project Based Learning at technical high schools

  • The application of the wireless telecommunication was examined as a theme for the project based learning at technical high school

Summary

Introduction

Project-Based Learning (PBL) at technical high schools showsanabundance of variety. It is hard to acquire the skill in wireless telecommunication in the early stage of the curriculum for the students at electronics and electrical engineering program. Technical high school and technical institute carry the part of the education of youngest population of electronics engineers. Two types of project-based learning have been realized: development of an artificial satellite and and a wireless locating system using general purpose communication device. The enhanced learning on the wireless-transmission system and integrated program of microcomputers are proposed.Significant part of students was stimulated to acquire the programming as well as the wireless communication skills, which was proved in the acquirement of official licence of telecommunication and programming
