RFID Reader with Customizable Cards

Typology
Technological
Resource description
This system consists of an RFID reader and tags/cards that can trigger predefined outputs (such as audio or visual instructions) when scanned. Cards can be customized with symbols or photos to represent steps or commands.
Sample of use in education with students with IDD
In a robotics lesson, students can scan a sequence of RFID cards to trigger instructions that guide them through the process of building a circuit or writing a code. This scaffolds learning for students who benefit from structured, sequential, and repetitive formats.
