Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to present the use of Arduino in engineering design-based STEM activities at the secondary school level in K-12 education. Examples of the use of Arduino and the free Arduino Science Journal mobile application are also presented along with different stages of the design process in engineering design-based thematic activities (e.g., greenhouse design, noise pollution, etc.). The widespread use of the user-friendly Arduino Science Journal App in STEM education activities will contribute to the development of students' scientific process skills (e.g., observation, measurement, data recording, reading graphics, and interpreting data). This chapter presents examples of using Arduino in engineering design-based activities for science teacher educators.
