INTERNET OF THINGS IN EDUCATION: CASE STUDY AND PERSPECTIVES

Abstract

With the presence of the Internet in people's lives there was a significant behavioral change. People communicate, work, relate and learn in a totally different way. Technological innovation ends up facilitating access to information through an increasing number of devices, as well as bringing with it an ever increasing demand by people with good educational background, able to generate skills and abilities of a professional with a more critical profile, flexible, dynamic and in continuous lifelong learning. The most diverse pedagogical models try to adapt to this diversity of information, devices and technologies known as Internet of Things (IoT) in order to establish new forms of knowledge and learning. This paper presents a learning experience that integrates the BYOD method into the IoT scenario. The results obtained evidenced a clear acceptance of IoT technology within the teaching process.
