Abstract

CanSat is a can-sized satellite model, which includes the main functions of a real satellite. For students having prior experience with CanSat production, we developed a mission planning variation CanSat kit, which includes electronic devices, control programs, and documentation. A CanSat Production Course was held during KOSEN Space Camp in September 2016. KOSEN students produced distinctive CanSats with CanSat kits. The following day, students competed with each other for CanSat data acquisition. Based on the participants’ questionnaires, we evaluated the educational benefits of CanSat production. This CanSat kit enables groups of students to experience mission planning, production, experimentation, and analysis. This is a practical application of Project Based Learning (PBL).
