Giáo dục STEM thông qua dự án “Đèn ngủ thông minh” bằng ngôn ngữ lập trình mBlock 5

Tóm tắt

Vietnamese education is undergoing fundamental and comprehensive transformations in terms of the quality and effectiveness of general education; shifting from a knowledge-transfer education system to one that develops comprehensive attributes and competences. The development of STEM education will equip students with scientific knowledge closely linked to its practical application. Students are organized to participate actively and proactively in learning, and they can apply the knowledge they have acquired to solve problems; thereby contributing to the formation and development of their qualities and competences. This article introduces the advantages of STEM education, the visual programming language mBlock 5, the Arduino UNO circuit board, and the process (with illustrations) of building smart electronic devices. The research results have served as a valuable reference, enabling middle school students to create learning projects using visual programming languages that are not as complex as languages like C or Python, which they have not yet studied at the secondary school level.
