The purpose of this study is to develop a systematic and effective PBL-based robot education program for improving creativity, and to analyze its effect on improving creativity of students in a science high school.The programs for 22 classes, designed to be used in a science high school, were developed and implemented. 8 teams got the abilities to independently build their own robots throughout all the process. The resultant improvement in creativity was analyzed in terms of gender and academic achievements. In the TTCT test, there was a significant improvement in creativity, especially the greatest in a subcategory originality. While there was no significant difference in creativity by gender, there was a little difference in creativity by academic achievement.
Especially the lowest group (Ha) showed the greatest improvement in creativity. This robot education program is expected to be used as an introductory one for the college of engineering.
