Yumekobo: An Effective Educational System for RoboCup

Recently, student teams in Yumekobo, the factory for dreams and ideas, in Kanazawa Institute of Technology obtain remarkable results in various domestic and world championships. As an example, the WinKIT team in the middle-size league won the vice champion at the RoboCup 2002, 2003, and 2004 world championship. The educational system in Yumekobo attracts attention very much among people who engage in the educational system reform in many universities in Japan. Yumekobo is not also the place that only learns knowledge and skill but the place of character building. Students develop their good character, which include independence, creativity, morals, teamwork, international nature and so on.
