A quantitative performance evaluation of a robot teaching method using a force/moment direction sensor is presented. The performance of the teaching method using the force/moment direction sensor is compared with the conventional teaching pendant method. Two types of teaching tasks were designed and the teaching times required to complete the teaching tasks were measured and compared. Task A requires a teaching motion that involves four degrees of freedom motion. Task B requires a teaching motion that involves six degrees of freedom motion. It was found that, by using the force/moment direction sensor method, the teaching times were reduced by 25% for Task A and 45% for Task B compared to the teaching pendant method.

Robots today have wider application fields than they ever have before. They need to work close to humans and fluid and compliable motions are expected of them. This requires redundant degrees of freedom for completing specific task. And conventional motion teaching method cannot be applied to redundant link structures. In this paper, the authors present a proficient, cost-effective and intuitive method for motion teaching. New software to apply this method to a humanoid is also presented. This new method utilizes current sensors to determine which joints to rotate. The experiment shown in this paper is a case of closed link where arms cannot move independently due to the restrictions in between the hands. After the input of several passing points of motion trajectory, the curve fitting is performed by the developed software. This software can insert new points, delete erroneous points and modify existing points. The developed motion teaching method is applied to the Kumdo robot, which is developed by the authors.

Whitehead proposed that the education proceed through the rhythmic cycle on the basis of his metaphysical philosophy and educational philosophy. 'The Rhythm of Education' means that the intellectual levels of learners are elevated through the rhythmic cycles of stages of romance, precision, and generalization over and over again. As a result of these cyclic repetitions, the learners become truly free of inner prejudice. This study is to seek a method to apply Whitehead's proposition to mathematics education. I devise the curriculum constructing methods to experience Whitehead's three stages meaningfully, the teaching methods interplaying freedom and discipline rhythmically, and the teaching examples which adopt all these.

This study was intended to explore the changes in teaching methods when freedom to choose curriculum, instruction, and evaluation methods is allowed and when 'free semesters' are free from entrance examination for high school. For this question, we analyzed free semester education plans of eight sample schools and interviewed 33 teachers and students respectively. The results were as follows. Firstly, all schools planned to use teaching methods for meaningful learning, although they are limited to those exemplified in guidelines for free semester. Secondarily, teaching methods adopted for free semester were characterized as activities enhancing student participation. Thirdly, teaching methods such as career exploration, scientific experimentation, cooperative learning, flipped learning, interdisciplinary learning were used only a couple of times in a semester. Changes in teaching methods were referred to enhance students' interest, confidence, self-regulation, creativity, problem-solving and cooperative learning.

In this paper, an inverse approach based on uniform load surface (ULS) is presented for structural damage localization and quantification. The ULS is excellent approximation for deformed configuration of a structure under distributed unit force applied on all degrees of freedom. The ULS make use of natural frequencies and mode shapes of structure and in mathematical point of view is a weighted average of mode shapes. An objective function presented to damage detection is discrepancy between the ULS of monitored structure and numerical model of structure. Solving this objective function to find minimum value yields damage's parameters detection. The teaching-learning based optimization algorithm has been employed to solve inverse problem. The efficiency of present damage detection method is demonstrated through three numerical examples. By comparison between proposed objective function and another objective function which make use of natural frequencies and mode shapes, it is revealed present objective function have faster convergence and is more sensitive to damage. The method has good robustness against measurement noise and could detect damage by using the first few mode shapes. The results indicate that the proposed method is reliable technique to damage detection in structures.

The purpose of this study is to examine the comparation Korean "-e(에), -eseo(에서)" with the Chinese "zai(在)," analyze the errors of using "-e(에), -eseo(에서)," and suggest the direction of teaching required for Chinese learners to reduce these errors. Referring to mean place, "-e(에)" and "-eseo(에서)" generally correspond to "zai(在)" in Chinese, but "zai(在)" in Chinese does not completely correspond to "-e(에)" and "-eseo(에서)" with the meaning of position or place. Chinese learners are often misunderstood when they use "-e(에)" and "-eseo(에서)."

The purpose of this study is to investigate American traditional values and American culture in English education. The understanding of American culture in English education requires the analysis of world changes in the global age. The history of American English, the formation of American society, and the background of natural environment are described in relation to the traditional American values of the earliest settlers, such as multi-culture, individual freedom, frontier heritage in the West, equality of opportunity and wealth and material abundance. Hence the case studies of students' project presentations on the American culture in English education exemplify the reflection of American traditional values in the current American life and society. It is concluded that project-based method with regard to cultural studies in English education reveals very positive learning effects by driving students' interests and active participation through the student-centered, creative, and cooperative project presentations.

This paper examines how democracy is being taught in secondary school level of Indonesian civic education. For this purpose, this study analyses the textbook contents concerning democracy. First, this study sets the freedom, the right, the unity and the stability as key words and analyzes the characteristic of describing democracy by looking at how each keyword is explained in the textbook. The result of analysis shows that democracy of Indonesia can be described as "Pancasila democracy" and textbooks have tendency to relatively emphasize 'the unity', and 'the stability' by differentiating themselves from "liberal democracy" and "liberalism." The freedom in textbook can be interpreted in the context of organic-statism that state and interests of state have the ascendancy over individuals. This viewpoint is based on the historical contexts of Indonesia. However, when textbook describes about Indonesian democracy and its values, they deal with contents of democratic principles, "the freedom of opposition", "the negative freedom", and natural rights. And the study interprets the existence of the two contrasting concepts - relative emphasis on the unity of state and the statement about the importance of individual rights and the freedom - in the textbook as a logical tension in transitional process of traditional organic-statism. Second, the study examines educational contents in accordance with the method of description in textbook. It has been found that there are logical tension and fallacy in describing the principle of fundamental concepts and applicate that concepts into Indonesia case. Also, when describing Marsinah and Munir case, there are some parts distorted and overlooked the facts. On the other hand, the gaps between the explanation in textbook and reality can be pointed out. This study which examined textbook and contents of the rights of the individual is an introductory study on textbook, education and democracy for development of Indonesia and their education.

There are increasing demands from the industry for intelligent robot-calibration solutions, which can be tightly integrated to the manufacturing process. A proposed solution can simplify conventional robot-calibration and teaching methods without tedious procedures and lengthy training time. iGPS(Indoor GPS) system is a laser based real-time dynamic tracking/measurement system. The key element is acquiring and reporting three-dimensional(3D) information, which can be accomplished as an integrated system or as manual contact based measurements by a user. A 3D probe is introduced as the user holds the probe in his hand and moves the probe tip over the object. The X, Y, and Z coordinates of the probe tip are measured in real-time with high accuracy. In this paper, a new approach of robot-calibration and teaching system is introduced by implementing a 3D measurement system for measuring and tracking an object with motions in up to six degrees of freedom. The general concept and kinematics of the metrology system as well as the derivations of an error budget for the general device are described. Several experimental results of geometry and its related error identification for an easy compensation / teaching method on an industrial robot will also be included.
