工業設計學生學習Arduino與App Inventor 2運用於設計課程之研究
A Study on the Use of Arduino and App Inventor 2 in Design Courses for Industrial Design Students
摘要
創客的開源平台，推出以視覺程式〈Visual Programming〉所開發的電子硬體與App軟體，提供非工程背景的學生，可以自行完成IoT（Internet of Things；物聯網產品）智慧產品原型製作，已經成為新趨勢。本研究主要目的是，規劃兩學期的產品開發課程與STEM相關課程，以兩階段上下學期產品開發課程，提供工業設計系學生學習並運用Arduino與App Inventor 2製作智慧產品原型。本研究的對象是工業設計學系大三生活科技組15位學生，研究方法採用行動研究方式進行。研究結果發現：學生透過Arduino教學與實作學習，有能力完成可以實際運作的寵物自動餵食器；學生學習App inventor 2設計互動遊戲App，需要協同課程教師的協助，才能完成課程App設計與上線運作；Arduino與App Inventor 2導入產品開發課程的規劃與學習，讓學生初步了解電子工程師與程式設計師的思維，對於IoT智慧產品的電子硬體與互動介面設計與運作有初步體驗，對於未來職場跨領域設計合作上有幫助。

The Maker's open source platform has launched electronic hardware and App software developed with a visual program, enabling non-engineering students to independently complete the prototype production of IoT smart products, which represents a new trend. The main objective of this study is to plan a two-semester product development course and STEM-related courses, and teach industrial design students how to use Arduino and App Inventor 2 to make smart product prototypes. The research involved 15 third-year students from the Department of Industrial Design using an action research method. The results revealed that through Arduino teaching and hands-on learning, students were able to create a practical pet automatic feeder. Additionally, students learned App Inventor 2 to design an interactive game app, necessitating the course teacher's assistance to complete App design and online operation. The study also introduced Arduino and App Inventor 2 into product development courses, providing students with a preliminary understanding of electronic engineers and programmers' thinking and an initial experience in designing and operating electronic hardware and interactive interfaces of IoT.
