We report on the engineering design class "Engineering Practice 2" in 2014 that opened a course in the department of electrical engineering, Shibaura Institute of Technology. The strategy of this class is to design and develop an autonomous inverted pendulum robot by oneself to improve the engineering design ability. After conducting Engineering Practice 2 in 2013, the programming of educational material was improved to raise the balance success rate of the inverted pendulum robot using a photo sensor. By comparing the questionnaire's result of Engineering Practice 2 in 2014 and the one in 2013, we indicate whether the improved programming of educational material is effective for improving programming ability of students.
