    A questionnaire was carried out for 600 university female students to clarify the images of homemaking as viewed from the learners' side and to thereby obtain a possible guide for the improvement of homemaking education. The results are summarized as follows: 1. Learners do not particularly like or dislike homemaking given in the elementary school as well as in the junior and senior high schools. 2. Differing from the case of other subjects, a large number of learners who dislike homemaking also dislike the teacher of the subject. 3. Likes and dislikes for homemaking apparently parallel the likes and dislikes for sewing and cooking. 4. Inferiority complex which often arises from severe evaluation of the individual's ability for the practice seriously influences likes and dislikes for homemaking.

    The state of teaching homemaking and the images of the teacher were summarized according to the replies of the questionnaire in this report. The results were as follows: 1 Lessons in homemaking that the learners took in their school days were taught mainly by textbooks and conformed to the old contents. 2 Many learners disliked learning homemaking and disliked the practice about clothing. 3 Images toward their homemaking teacher were negative ones such as meticulous, faultfinding and hysteric. 4 It is obvious that the teacher having gifted humanity should teach homemaking including the present contents by practical methods.

    To enrich the contents of co-educational homemaking education, we conducted a research on parents about their concepts of the subject, who have children of school age from elementary school to senior high school in Yamaguchi Prefecture. The results are as follows: 1. More than 70% of parents support the idea that boys study homemaking education for a longer term than that required in the present course of study. 2. For the contents of co-educational homemaking education they ask that children develop social manners and understand the meaning of family relationship. Other important elements to be cultivated are homemaking skills and willingness to share chores. But many do not think much of scientific and cultural aspects of homemaking. 3. "Science and culture" and "daily life" are determining factors of the co-educational homemaking education. Generally, fathers, not mothers, those who have only sons, and supporters of the co-educational homemaking education at senior high school are inclined towards the "daily life" factor rather than the "science and culture" factor.

Parents recognized that the participation of household work is important for the growth and development of their children. However, the parents had negative opinion towards their children doing responsible household work, because the children seemed unwilling to do household work.

    The technical test system are taken in homemaking education for senior high school girls and are said to be effective for the leveling up of sewing skills. The test must be made not only for the inspection of the total training acquired but also for the scientific analysis of the sewing procedures of the teaching materials. So the working procedures and the needed time for the work was carried out and the suitability of the above mentioned sewing items was reexamined. The findings are as follows: l. The ratio of the length of the main work is 1:2 for the 1st and 2nd grades, respectively. 2. In regard to the time needed for each working element, the greater part of the time is naturally spent on handsewing and machine sewing in every grade. 3. The sequence of sewing procedures is the same for each subject in the 2nd grade. But some of them started from the sleeves in the 1st grade certification.

    The results of the investigation on the consciousness and working behavior of junior high school students about food preparation are as follows: 1. As for cooking experience, boys are inferior to girls toward interest and eagerness for cooking. 2. The subject matters learned already are more often practiced at home than the unlearned matters, with no difference between boys and girls. 3. When food preparation is conducted in groups made up of only boys or only girls, the work amount makes no difference according to the sexes. But in the mixed groups, the boys' working amount is less than the girls'. We have reached the conclusion that in order that each student experience as much cooking as possible, groups should be made up of only boys or only girls and that each individual should be given a role in the process of cooking.

    This study has objectives to look up actual conditions and characteristics on the way to proceed cooking exercises between students of M-school and H-school. This report showed results as follows, after analyzing relations between hours and learning experiences during cooking lessons and information collections with cooking behaviors. 1. The needed hours at cooking exercises of M-school is shorter than H-school, and were about three-fourth of H-school. 2. The difference of the needed hours of both schools showed that it was closely related with "the indirect experiences" and "other experiences" which were stronger than "the direct experiences." 3. It was recognized in H-school rather than in M-school that they needed more information-collecting hours before "direct experiences. " For both schools, in the case of with complicate learning contents and new contents, it became clear that information-collecting hours increased. 4. With contents on information-collecting, it became clear at H-school that twice the time on information be haviors "to recognize" such as textbook, planning papers and so on, as compared with the M-school.

    As in Report l, it was recognized that there were clearly differences of the needed hours to cook between M-school and H-school. In this report, students' movement during cooking and contents of working were analyzed with results as follows: 1. Compared with M-school on motion times during cooking, H-school showed one and a half times more. 2. In regard to process of motions, H-school showed more on "to move for information-collecting," and were about three times more than M-school. In M-school, "useless motions without objective" were not found, but were l.6% of the whole motion times for the H-school. 3. One of the reasons why the need-hours of cooking for H-school prolonged may be due to motions for information-collecting and for useless motions without objective. 4. It may be suggested that the length of overlapping hours for the two working is concerned with the length of whole needed-hours of cooking exercises.
