Statement of Inquiry: Scientific and Technical Innovation can be used to create products and systems that
can be used to make life better.

Assessed Criteria: Criterion A (Inquiring and Analyzing), Criterion B Developing Idea),

Criterion C (Creating Solutions); Criterion D (Evaluation)

Description of Assessment:
Most of our daily life electric types of equipment are based on sensor-based devices. The Arduino Integrated
Development Environment (IDE) is a cross-platform application (for Microsoft Windows, macOS, and Linux)
that is written in the Java programming language. Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on
easy-to-use hardware and software.

Task: To design and program a functioning “System” with Arduino using at least three actuators.

Minimum success criteria:

a) Can be completed in pairs or individually
b) Create a system of three components, LEDs, switch, speaker, sensor, etc.
c) Map/drawing of your physical setup (final design)
d) Be able to explain your code (plan/process journal)

Inquiry questions:

Factual questions:
• What coding language does Arduino use? What is an IDE?
Conceptual questions:
• Can coding and coding devices be incorporated into everyday items such as clothing?
Debatable question:
• Should I be able to code in order to be successful in life?
