A robotics instruction program, named “Adventures in Robotics,” for robotics beginners implemented for freshmen at the Department of Advanced Robotics, Chiba Institute of Technology is described. The main characteristics of this course is that every beginner student takes experiences of soldering, managing machine tools, programming and creating their own unique robot during 15 weeks. Here, we explain the lecture contents, procedures of the exercises and evaluations of the lecture by students. Crash courses with reorganized contents from this course that are provided as parts of curriculums at Super Science High Schools (SSH) and Science Partnership Projects (SPP) are also described. We summarize the findings based on questionnaire survey results and interactions with the students over 6 years of lectures.
