Robot programming has been discussed in detail during the recent years. Numerous studies in particular presented relevance, solution concepts and implementation of off-line programming. In this paper a new user-friendly robot programming method is introduced, which permits the implicit description and programming of assembly process. On the functional level of programming, the assembly processes are described in terms of their operational functions. On the language level, the individual functions are then translated into commands for the robots.

We describe about the graphic simulation system which supports the determination of efficient multi-robot motions during cooperation. For the construction of the simulation software for multi-robot motions, two problems are presented. First problem is that all the robot motions must be determinded using both the desired object motions and the holonomic constraints with the object. To find the robot motions combined with the various object motion path, the robot motions are derived from the desired object path instead of a master robot path. Therefore robot motions can be easily modifiable with the various object motions. This type of motion determination is different from that of the master-slaves method using the master robot motions. The other is that the developments of robot application softwares need a heavy cost when the participated robots or the tasks given to the robots are changed. Based on object-oriented programming paradigm, we present useful software objects describing robot application programming environment. The object-oriented programming paradigm increases the software reusability, reliability, and extensibility, and also provides the structual concepts to cope with the various demands of robot application programming.

Current computer education is moving its focus from using oriented education to improving students' creativity and problem solving ability by computer science education. Robot programming education is becoming a major research issue of computer education in the context of creativity education. One of the mainstream ideas of prior research about robot programming is the effect of robot programming. Another is curriculum development of robot programming. But, the focus of current research is moving toward teaching methods of robot programming. The theme of this research is to use examples in robot programming. Example programs are considered the most useful type of material both by the students and the teachers. Example programs play a important role in learning to program. They work as templates, guidelines, and hints for learners when developing their own programs. In this study, I developed a example-based robot programming support system. Due to the trends of smart learning, I developed this system as a mobile web application.

The effect of existing programming education has shown a limitation coming from its methodology. Thus, the researcher developed a Web-based robot programming support system and explored its possibility for overcoming problems in existing programming education and ultimately for enhancing creativity and problem-solving abilities of students. The developed system let students learn robot programming just with a PC or PDA connected to the Internet without additional hardware and software. Different types of robots linked with a server computer can be controlled by using different programming languages. It is possible to use Korean keywords for programming as well. Specially, this system was evaluated positively by the groups whose computer abilities are excellent and student of introductory or intermediate level programming course. Furthermore, the programming education that uses robot and the Hangul programming technology were given very positive reception by elementary school students.

Scratch-based programming has come to be known as an effective programming tool because of its graphic instruction modules, which are designed to be assembled like the famous LEGO building blocks. These building block-like structures allow users to more easily program applications without using other more difficult programming languages such as C or Java, which are text-based. Therefore, it poses a good opportunity for application in educational settings, especially in primary schools. This paper presents an effective approach to developing an educational robot for use in elementary schools. Furthermore, we present the method for scratch programming based on the external modules need for the implementation of robot motion. Lastly, we design a systematic curriculum, titled "Play with a Robot," and propose guidelines to using the educational programming language Scratch.

Nowadays, most shop floors using industrial robots have many problems such as constructing robot workcell, generating robot arm moving trajectory, etc.. In the case of programming robot-arms for a specific task, shop operator commonly use the teach pendant to record the target position and determine the moving trajectory. However, such a teaching process may result in an inefficient trajectory in the sense of moving distance and joint angle fluctuation. Moreover, shop operators who have little knowledge about robot programming process need a lot of learning time and cost. The purpose of this paper is to propose a user friendly robot programming method to program robot-arms easily and efficiently for shop operator so that the programming time is reduced and a short and stable trajectory is obtained.

Many works have been reported in various fields on the subject of controlling a robot with high-level robot languages. This paper presents one such effort and explains the development of an automatic robot programming system which utilizes the concept of the task level language. This system is expected to act as an intelligent supporting tool in robot programming and be put into practical use. Emphasis is placed on the role of the programming system as a tool that generates the executable robot program according to the user specified tasks. Several task level commands are used in the developed system, and the resulting inflexibility is complemented by the motion level commands of the motion level robot languages. Thus, the advantages of both task and motion level languages are utilized, and no knowledge of specific language grammer is needed even when using motion level commands. To increase the usability of the developed system, various methods are provided for supplementing the programming system using taught data.

In this paper, to instruct elementary programming concepts based on flowchart programming for elementary school students, we proposed sensor-based elementary robot programming PBL problems using line-tracer robots. Proposed PBL problems are designed to have various correct-answer algorithms. For this purpose, we present PBL-based robot programming instruction steps. Through applying the proposed sensor-based PBL problems using line-tracer robots, experimental results are analyzed in views of the problem-solving ability and suitability of allocating degrees of difficulties to the proposed elementary robot programming problems.

A robot assisted education has advantages to increase the students' flow degree. Especially, when we teach programming with robots we take advantages that the students can easily understand the programs because they are interested in the robots and they can see the movement of the robots. However, it is difficult to teach programming to meet our purposes because the students have reluctances to the robot programming with sensors and they take a lot of time building the robots. Therefore, in this paper I analysed the patterns of the robot programming and propose new robot programming education methods that the students need not to care to the sensors. According to this methods, we can teach the robot programming efficiently because we reduce the time to build and programming the robots.

We survey the effects of robot programming education using web 2.0 on improving problem solving ability. For this, we constructed a robot programming education system using springnote based web 2.0 and taught computer gifted students of D region. Furthermore, we investigated about the problem solving ability when the robot programming education using web 2.0 is executed. In conclusion, the robot programming education using web 2.0 stimulate problem solving ability for learners.
