Abstract

The State Education Program does not prescribe use of any particular programming environment in Slovak schools. It is up to each school or teacher which programming language or environment he/she decides to choose. Nowadays the most preferred programming languages at Slovak secondary schools are Python and Lazarus (some schools also use C/C++ or Java). However, these programming languages do not bring enough motivated students. Our Department of Computer Science at FNS UMB offers motivational workshops for secondary schools in region of Banská Bystrica. We would like to motivate students to proceed with study of Computer science in the future, because Slovakia reports a lack of IT professionals (but problem is worldwide). Main idea of these workshops is to show practical usage of programming for the students to increase the interest of IT with respect to interdisciplinary applications to the STEM subjects. In this article, we present our experiences with workshops in three different secondary schools with programming microcontroller Arduino.
通过Arduino工作坊在中学教授编程
国家教育方案没有规定在斯洛伐克学校使用任何特定的编程环境。这取决于每个学校或老师决定选择哪种编程语言或环境。现在斯洛伐克中学最喜欢的编程语言是Python和Lazarus(一些学校也使用C/ c++或Java)。然而,这些编程语言并没有给学生带来足够的积极性。我们在FNS UMB的计算机科学系为bansk Bystrica地区的中学提供激励讲习班。我们希望鼓励学生在未来继续学习计算机科学,因为斯洛伐克报告缺乏IT专业人员(但问题是全球性的)。这些工作坊的主要目的是向学生展示编程的实际应用,以提高他们对STEM学科跨学科应用的兴趣。在本文中,我们介绍了我们在三所不同的中学使用Arduino编程微控制器的讲习班的经验。
