About
Toshihiro Hayashi is a researcher focused on educational technology and programming education, with a particular emphasis on problem-solving learning through robotics. His major contributions lie in developing innovative approaches to teaching programming by integrating LEGO robots into the curriculum, making abstract concepts tangible and engaging for students. Hayashi’s work on "LEGO Robot Programming Exercise Support for Problem Solving Learning with Game Strategy Planning Tools" (2007) and "Exercise Analysis and Lesson Plan with Robot Behavior in LEGO Programming Contest for Problem Solving Learning" (2006) has garnered 4 citations each, demonstrating foundational impact in the field. Notably, he has pioneered the use of game strategy planning tools to enhance algorithmic thinking and motivation in college-level C programming exercises. His research highlights how robot behavior analysis can inform lesson design, bridging the gap between theoretical programming skills and practical problem-solving. Hayashi’s contributions are particularly valuable for educators seeking to inspire students through hands-on, interactive learning experiences that foster both interest and competence in computer science.
