The number of operation keys is decreased, realizing cost reduction and miniaturization of a teaching device. Further, the working efficiency and operational safety are considerably improved. Also, the operations of the robot ranging from delicate positioning and high-speed continuous operation can be readily controlled by serial manipulations. The present invention includes (a) a plurality of operation keys to designate one out of a plurality of operation coordinates of the robot arm, and (b) a controller which controls the operation of the robot arm. The controller has a function to control the robot arm so that the robot arm is positioned on the designated operation coordinates and also a function to control the operation speed of the robot arm. The controller includes a jog dial disposed in a manner such that the jog dial can be rotated and pushed. When the jog dial is rotated in a state that the jog dial is not pushed, the position of the robot arm is controlled by the rotation of the jog dial, and when the jog dial is rotated in a state that the jog dial is pushed, the operation speed of the robot arm is controlled by the rotation of the jog dial.
