抄録

The objectives of this study were to ascertain and identify issues regarding the current state of education related to energy conservation, and to suggest specific courses of action. Based on a comparison of approved textbooks and curriculum guidelines from Japan’s Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT), and actual cases of educational activities for people, evidence indicated that the principle issue is the absence of a systematic relationship between policies and practices. Successful models from foreign countries suggest the need for the systematic dissemination of materials, and the systematic development of materials and teacher training.
