Learning Goals & Products

Learning Goals

1

Students will be able to investigate real user needs for a school or community problem by conducting interviews, observations, and notes that inform an Arduino R4 WiFi design.

2

Students will be able to synthesize user research into a clear problem statement that defines the target user, context, and design constraints for an Arduino R4 WiFi solution.

3

Students will be able to design and code Arduino R4 WiFi programs using events, sensors, outputs, procedures, modules, and libraries to create a working prototype.

4

Students will be able to compare the Arduino R4 WiFi and Arduino R3 to justify feature choices such as Wi-Fi connectivity, app-based control, and processing capability.

5

Students will be able to prototype, test, and revise a device based on sensor data, usability feedback, and debugging evidence.

6

Students will be able to communicate design decisions and tradeoffs through code snapshots, wiring diagrams, reflections, and an evidence-based presentation.

Arduino R4 WiFi User Research and Prototype Portfolio

Each student submits a portfolio that includes firsthand user research, a clarified problem statement, a simple prototype concept, and evidence of testing and revision. The portfolio shows how user needs informed an individual Arduino R4 WiFi design idea.

team

Team Arduino R4 WiFi Community Solution Demo with Tested Prototype

Teams present a collaboratively developed Arduino R4 WiFi solution that addresses a real school or community need and demonstrate a working higher-fidelity prototype. Their presentation explains the shared problem definition, the user evidence behind design choices, and the iterations that improved the final build.
