In the next general policies regarding curriculum formulation by MEXT, high school students are expected to foster information utilization abilities based on the scientific understanding of information. Simulation is a good teaching material that fosters abilities of modeling, finding problems, evaluating models, and solving problems. However, knowledge about teaching materials and educational methods that can be practiced effectively is not sufficient. We introduce a practice using pedestrian simulation in a high school class and report preliminary results on educational effect.
