Outline of Final Research Achievements

Digital material and education design were developed in order that students were able to learn specialized subjects comprehensively using the same material for a long-term. Digital materials are a robotic car and a robotic train developed for this research, and both of them show the results of consumption energy and traveling data after executing a relatively simple program.
Some educational activities using the robotic car and the robotic train were designed to improve students’ multiple abilities. Evaluating activities with other students’ data were conducted after the learning activities were carried out in specialized subjects. Educational results were scrutinized. Students’ willingness regarding studying specialized subjects and their consciousness regarding making plans were improved through the educational activities. It was also found that the educational design and digital material developed for this research were able to be applied to educational institutions abroad.
