Using Low-Code Development in Teaching Project Work Technology
摘要
Low-code programming has significantly increased software development efficiency, becoming an international trend amidst the rapid advancement of technology. Low-code development platforms (LCDPs) feature an intuitively understandable interface, enabling developers and non-technical users to quickly grasp their functionality and create programs. Implementing low-code development in engineering education is considered to be an effective way to foster engineering students’ ability to deal with the continuous improvement and adaptation of industrial and business processes. In addition, introducing LCDPs in learning practice can greatly enhance student engagement in teamwork and project management concepts, by overcoming their lack of programming experience. Thus, this article highlights the pedagogical approaches and advantages of integrating LCDPs into students’ team projects focused on creating digital solutions. We also aim to present our ongoing experience using Google Apps Script in teaching the “Project Work Technology” course for engineering students and their perception of low-code development.
