Scenarios for student-centered learning: RFiD Pocket Lab and IoT Platform as teaching tools

This paper contributes to the realization of learner-centered learning scenarios. It is developing an IoT learning platform for different educational levels. On the other hand, the use of "Pocket Labs" is proposed as an effective tool in the meaningful learning of emerging technologies. The fact that these tools can guide the student towards the realization of projects using a set of technologies that are on the rise generate as advantages: an increase in personnel familiar with the IoT, which has an economic impact on the industry, or that the learning is long term, as students develop and improve their understanding. Furthermore, the intention is to develop Information and Communication Tools (ICT) disciplinary competencies, which aligns with the spirit of the Tecnologico de Monterrey's educational model. Both strategies are a relatively new teaching concept that supports students' creativity and initiative, allowing them to wear and experiment with actual equipment at any time and place of their choice. Both experiences result in significant long-term learning in fundamental technologies for Education 4.0 and Industry 4.0. These include IoT, RFID (Radio Frequency Identification), NFC (Near Field Communications), Cloud Services, Etc.
