智能小车主题简介

Introduction of the Intelligent Vehicle Subject

玩转智能小车系列课程以编程为核心,以计算思维和创新思维培养为目标,以真实的生活情境作为课程导入,明确具体的问题和小组挑战任务,在任务驱动下实现知识的理解、技能的掌握和问题的创新解决。任务活动涵盖广泛,具体包括以图形化编程的方式控制开源主控板的输入元件(如按钮、传感器等)和输出元件(如蜂鸣器、LED点阵屏等),从而设计开发创新智能作品,通过复杂程序的编写实现小车的前进、后退、转弯、巡线、跟随与避障等多种功能。本课程以不同国家的青少年科技人文交流为契机,致力于让学生在多元的文化背景下,通过丰富的创新实践对所学知识进行内化与个性化的建构,发展创新思维、问题解决能力和信息社会责任,提升科技人文素养,从而能够更好地理解和适应现代化社会。

This course "Learn Coding by Smart Car" is composed of smart car technology activities which mainly focus on programming. These activities aim to cultivate students’ computational thinking and innovative thinking. The learning activities are introduced by authentic contexts, driven by explicit tasks, and cover the use of the open-source development board and the control of the smart car. Through challenging tasks, students can write programs and manipulate the main control board by manipulating input components (such as buttons, sensors, etc.) and output components (such as buzzers, LED matrix screens, etc.). And through achieving cars' functions of forwarding, backwarding, turning, line tracking, following, and avoiding obstacles, students can learn more complex loop and branch structures. As an opportunity of augmenting the communication of science and technology between different countries’ adolescents, this course devotes efforts to creating a multi-cultures environment, aiming to cultivate students’ innovative thinking, problem-solving skills, and information social responsibility, enhance their scientific literacy and cultural literacy, so as to better understand and adapt to the modern society.
