Information subject in the revision educational curriculum actually devoted a good deal of space to increase problem-solving ability through programming learning. However, it is not easy for learners to be immersed in the programming teaching by using only computers, which leads to the heavy logical burden in learning. Therefore, many studies are being carried out on the programming teaching by using robots. Moreover, smartphones have been rapidly widespread in the past few years; as a result, the present immersion situation in smartphones and the side effect problems are on the rise. This study tried to develop a programming teaching model to have a significant synergy effect in programming teaching by using robots with the immersion effect in smartphones. This paper attempts to improve programming teaching effectively by introducing the special feature of smartphones: the immersion greatly needed to programming teaching.

In this paper an omni-directional mobile robot is suggested for educational robot platform. Comparing to other robots, a mobile robot can be easily designed and manufactured due to its simple geometric structure. Moreover, since it is required to have low DOF motion on planar space, fabrication of control system is also simple. In this research, omni-directional wheels were adopted to remove the non-holonomic characteristic of conventional wheels and facilitate control system design. Firstly, geometric structure of a Mecanum wheel which is a most frequently used omni-directional wheel was demonstrated. Then, the organization of the mobile platform was suggested in aspects of mechanism manufacturing and electronic hardware design. Finally, a methodology of control system development was introduced for educational purpose. Due to an intuitive motion generating ability, simple hardware composition, and convenient control algorithm applicability, the omni-directional mobile robot suggested in this research is expected to be a promising educational platform.

To solve the digital divide of the elderly, various institutions are educating how to use various smart devices for the elderly. However, it cannot be expected to have a great effect due to the disadvantages of instructor-to-face education and the learning characteristics of the elderly. Accordingly, educational contents using digital devices using robots for the elderly were developed. In this study, Evaluation Indicators were developed to evaluate the usability of digital education using robots. Also, by using usability evaluation based on the developed Evaluation Indicators, we tried to verify the usability of education using robots and to confirm the possibility of expanding the application area. In order to successfully apply the developing robot technology to various fields, it is essential to verify the usability of contents using robots, and this study on Evaluation Indicators and Evaluation methods is expected to serve as a foundation.

Many countries and international organizations have carried out rover missions to explore planetary surfaces. Accordingly, the demand for mechatronics education, which is closely related to building exploratory robots, is also steadily increasing. However, due to the complexity in understanding the background information needed for mechatronics, it is hard for pre-college students to study such process. In this study, we suggest an educational platform for mechatronics using a combined robot kit with a spherical robot and a smartphone application. To provide a visual understanding, the dynamic model of the robot is constructed while analyzing the error between actual driving and a simulation, and the educational algorithm of the game and a feedback method are proposed to improve the learning efficacy by considering the user's level of knowledge of mechatronics. We use this educational spherical robot to develop a curling game platform that can impart engineering education even when students lack significant knowledge.

This study was aimed to understand the recognition of care robots which would enhance the medical quality of life under the 4^th industrial revolution in the university students majoring in health and engineering who would lead the development of the future medical industry and to find out the differences of their digital literacy and empathic ability. This was a descriptive correlation study to analyze the recognition of university students on care robots, their digital literacy and empathic ability. Both students majoring in health and engineering recognized the needs of care robots, while their education experiences were not sufficient. Moreover, statistically fewer university students majoring in health heard about care robots than those in engineering, and their need of taking classes was lower, too. No statistically significant differences were found in digital literacy and empathic ability between the two majors, while significant difference was found in the relationship bundling capability out of behavioral empathy, a sub-domain of empathic ability. The study results are anticipated to suggest the future educational direction in the medical field according to the 4^th industrial revolution and to be the fundamental data for understanding and preparation of the students depending on the majors.

본 연구는 초등학교에서 로봇 활용 SW 교육을 실시하고 사전 수준 및 성별에 따라 효과에 차이가 있는지 규명하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 경기도의 A 초등학교 5, 6학년 학생 155명을 대상으로 로봇 활용 SW 교육을 실시하였으며, 수집된 자료는 대응 표본 t 검정, 일원분산분석, 공분산분석을 통해 평균의 차이를 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 로봇 활용 SW 교육을 실시한 후 학생들의 컴퓨팅사고력과 창의성이 유의하게 향상되었으나, 컴퓨팅사고력 수준이 상 집단인 학생들은 유의한 향상을 나타내지 않았다. 또한 학생들의 컴퓨팅사고력은 성별의 차이가 없었으나, 창의성은 성별에 따른 차이가 유의한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 사전 수준과 성별에 따른 로봇 활용 SW 교육의 효과를 규명하여 로봇 활용 SW 교육에 대한 이해를 확장시켰다는 점에서 연구의 의의가 있다.

With the development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, discussions on the use of artificial intelligence are actively taking place in many fields, and various policies for nurturing artificial intelligence talents are being promoted in the field of education. In this study, we propose a robot programming framework using artificial intelligence technology, and based on this, we use Python, which is used frequently in the machine learning field, and an educational robot that is highly utilized in the field of education to provide artificial intelligence. (AI) education program was proposed. The level of autonomous driving (levels 0-5) suggested by the International Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) is simplified to four levels, and based on this, the camera attached to the robot recognizes and detects lines (objects). The goal was to make a line detector that can move by itself. The developed program is not a standardized form of solving a given problem by simply using a specific programming language, but has the experience of defining complex and unstructured problems in life autonomously and solving them based on artificial intelligence (AI) technology. It is meaningful.

Educational tools for infants and younger students are becoming smarter as ICT-based digital technology convergence extends according to the development of technology. As the digital interaction function of smart education tools gives students greater immersion and fun, a learning might become a play to the students. The technologies used in the implementation of smart education tools come from the disciplines of robotics, computer engineering, programming, and engineering and mathematical foundations and these can be integrated into the field of education itself. This paper designs and implements a product based on optimized physical computing for R&D and education in consideration of the characteristics of educational tool robots used in the field education. It was developed to enable physical education for sensing information processing, software design and programming practice training that is the basis of robot system.
