Abstract

Today, there is a huge demand for technical talents such as artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things. Students’ information literacy, especially their ability to program, is increasingly like English and math. It has become the basic “literacy ability” of modern education. However, mechatronics is not an independent discipline for information education, but a combination of mechanical, electrical, electronic, information, creative and design. Mechatronics courses typically include the integration of scientific knowledge, information technology, mathematical operations, and technical tools. Collaborate to solve problems, analyze and make decisions in this process. It has also been shown to stimulate students’ interest in STEM and improve learning outcomes that connect classroom teaching and everyday life.
However, teaching tools are relatively important for mechatronics courses, because good teaching tools are not only greatly assisted by teachers, so this research tool chooses Micro:bit, Micro:bit is a good study of mechatronics today. tool. It enables students to learn how to use Micro:bit to develop electronic component knowledge, algorithms, data structures, program optimization, and more. Therefore, this study will develop a STEM mechatronics course with Micro:bit tools.
