Workshop

Measurement tools are a key part of scientific inquiry for obtaining evidence to support scientific claims.

Inquiry-based science education emphasizes student-led scientific inquiry, but the lack of diverse scientific measurement tools in schools makes it difficult for students to investigate a wide range of topics.

Gaduino is a solution that uses Arduino and mBlock to create low-cost, easy-to-make measurement tools for scientific inquiry.

By connecting low-cost sensors to the Arduino development board, hardware can be made at a low cost, and by using mBlock, software to upload to the Arduino can be developed using block coding without the need for specialized text coding.

In this workshop, you will learn how to use Gaduino to make measurement devices for scientific inquiry.

In addition, technical information on related development boards and sensors will be provided so that teachers can use them in their classrooms.
