Abstract: The presented research study is focused on building conceptual knowledge of pupils in the field of data representation and tools for their processing using the inquiry-based methodology (the 5E model was applied). We have chosen geolocation data as a less traditional type of data, which also provides an opportunity for a non-traditional form of teaching computer science outdoors using mobile technology. Pupils’ task is to determine suitable tools for processing geolocation data. They analyze a GPX file’s contents and formulate questions that can be answered from the available data. During the outdoor phase of the learning scenario, pupils produce an original GPS drawing and share it in a common digital map. Data collected from teachers who implemented the proposed methodology in several primary schools confirmed that our methodology based on the IBL principles was successful in achieving educational goals at higher levels of Bloom’s taxonomy. The teachers were also confirming that co mbining the inquiry approach with using mobile technology stimulates pupils' interest in the subject of teaching significantly. (More)
