Arduino Explore IOT Kit Rev2 AKX00044

The Arduino Explore IoT Kit Rev2 is a great tool for high school and college students who want to learn about creating connected devices, or IoT. It helps them quickly get started with easy activities and work on 10 hands-on projects focused on important issues like sustainability.

These projects let students solve real-world problems related to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, such as improving urban farming, health monitoring, and managing water and waste. They’ll use design thinking to come up with their own solutions.

This kit not only teaches technology but also helps students understand and address important challenges, preparing them to make a positive impact on the world.

Learning Outcomes:

• Gain a solid understanding of how Internet-connected devices work and communicate.
• Explore and solve global sustainability challenges related to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.
• Learn to manage and analyze data using real-world sensors.
• Develop skills in computational thinking through data handling and device control.
• Use the Cloud to remotely control actuators like LEDs, buzzers, and displays based on sensor data.

• Moisture sensor
• PIR sensor
• Plug-and-play cables for the external sensors
• Plastic enclosure to attach and protect the hardware
• Access to the demo version of Arduino Cloud for Education, which includes a complete IoT getting started experience and three introductory activities and lessons.
• For a more comprehensive educational journey into the Internet of Things, access to 10 more step-by-step, hands-on projects, each linked to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals and covering the fundamentals of IoT, and to connect with Google Classroom, educators can subscribe to  the Arduino Cloud for Education School Plan.
  • Each of the 10 projects takes between 15-25 hours to complete, and can be completed over the course of a couple of weeks or a whole term or year.
  • Each project contains five modules which can be completed in an order that makes sense for your classroom.
  • To complete a project, students ideally need good programming skills and to have worked with sensor technologies.
  • However, if your students are at more of a basic level, the kit also includes additional technical activities and lessons for beginners.
