Abstract

Cyber-physical systems and the Internet of things (IoT) will trigger disruptive changes that affect all areas of society. The heart of the future beats in the algorithm only those who understand the language of digital systems can shape the future and protect themselves from manipulation. A total of 30years after commercialization of the internet, the language of digital systems must find its way into everyday school life. The presented IoT-Workshop concept provides a turn-key blueprint for implementation. It shows that the IoT tools developed are intrinsically motivated, encouraging pupils to deal with networked systems and at the same time training algorithmic thinking. Programming is not an end in itself, but a tool to implement own ideas. The core of the workshop concept is an open platform based on the ESP8266 microcontroller and the Arduino ecosystem. Open-source leverages synergies, lowers costs, enables crowd learning and integrates the existing maker scene.
