抄録

This paper proposes and discusses the effects of robot edutainment class for bachelor students by using robot kit. The aim of the class is to improve their understanding and ability about robot development. This class enhances their skill by exerting "imagination and creativity" and "thinking and attempting" through robot development with other students and robot contests. We have been practising the class for four years. For several years, we have changed curriculum of the class to enhance the quality of the education. We discuss and evaluate the effects of the class by comparing the developed robots by the students with changing the curriculum.
