On 14th June 2019, an educational program with 38 participants of 8th Fully Residential School International Symposium (FRSIS) 2019 from selected boarding schools in Malaysia (33), Japan (1), Vietnam (1) and Philippines (3) was successfully conducted by Kulliyyah of Engineering in collaboration with IEEE EDS Malaysia. Officiated by Dean of Kulliyah of Engineering IIUM, Prof Ahmad Faris Ismail, the program is divided into two sessions: Arduino Coding and EDS-ETC Electronics. In Arduino Coding session, the students went through series of tutorials in understanding basic coding to control Line-Follower robot. In EDS-ETC Electronics session, they were introduced to Electronics concepts through hands-on activities at 4 stations: FM Radio, Automatic Street Lamp, Solar Battery and Sand Water Detector. This session certainly has helped them in seeing the real application of electronics and how it is related with IoT and smart technologies. It is hoped this program will stimulate their interests in this field and encourage
them to join KOE in their near future.
