As a problem related to the education of students in primary and secondary education stage, it has been pointed out that they lack interest in science and engineering. From this kind of circumstance, Kanazawa Institute of Technology holds science experiment courses for high school students during summer vacation. As one of the scientific experiment courses, we have developed the experimental course to suppress the shaking of a building model due to earthquake with dynamic damper, and held the contest-style experimental course. As a result, it was suggested that the hands-on scientific experiment course conducted this time on the subject of familiar phenomena is effective for raising students’ awareness of the engineering field.
