Research on applying Raspberry Pi 5 in the IoT and STEM education: an introductory study
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study focuses on exploiting the potential of Raspberry Pi 5 in enhancing STEM and IoT education capacity in high schools in Vietnam. The study focuses on building effective application models, suitable for the Vietnamese educational context, using Raspberry Pi 5 in teaching and learning activities. The study also qualitatively assesses the challenges and opportunities in implementing this technology in education in general and high school education in particular. This study was carried out carefully and systematically in technical aspects. Thereby, the study proposes solutions to develop STEM education integrating IoT based on Raspberry Pi 5 in training high-quality human resources, meeting the requirements of the fourth industrial revolution.
