Summary:This paper demonstrates the suitability and the practicality of using the advanced open source tools such as the Raspberry Pi and the Node-RED for teaching and learning in the Internet of Things (IOT) subject within a newly created major of Data Engineering in the Faculty of Engineering and IT at University of Technology, Sydney. Understanding and practicing of the Internet of Things largely depend on the high availability of tools, their low cost, and ease of use that can accelerate learning processes. This paper demonstrates relatively uncomplicated practical lab exercises involving the Raspberry Pi hardware, firmware and the Node-RED programming environment that students can execute to stimulate their learning, understanding of the Internet of Things technology and acquire fundamental data engineering skills.
