Abstract
Observation is an important method in learning science. By means of observation, it can ehnnce individual’s motivation, find the difference among observations. The article tried to propose a integrated framework “Framework of Authentic Big data Retrived from Internet of things and Clouds, FABRIC” and apply to design of science curriculum. The FABRIC integrates the mobile technologies includes internet of things, big data and cloud computing, wearable devices and environmental monitors. The FABRIC focus on the collection of authentic data gathered from individual’s observation. Moreover the interpretation of collected data retrives from big data storage.
The science currirulum tried to apply wearable devices and environmental monitors to the unit plants which topic crosses from 3rd graders to 6th graders. The topic of curriculum is plants. The 3rd graders have to use these device to observe and collect relevant data. The 4th graders will apply previous experience and find the difference between terresestial species and aquatic species. The 5th graders have to observe the floral structure in plant reporduction unit. During the 6th grader, students have to complete a case study about environmental issues, including water or solid pollution.
