Abstract:	The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) has been promoting cross-curricular learning including STEAM education in its educational policy for 2021. The purpose of this study is to have students experience not only control engineering but also basic programming techniques, and to have them become interested in mathematical subjects in general, which are the basis for control engineering. The educational design and accompanying software were designed using Beauto Balancer2 (Vstone) educational robot and Scratch, a visual programming editor developed by the Scratch Foundation. In addition, workshops were conducted, and the lesson design was evaluated by a questionnaire.
