JOURNAL FREE ACCESSTextbooks are thought recently as learning materials which help students to understand science and stimulate them to learn science. Science textbooks include the topics related with science, technology and society in foreign countries. Japanese students have not many opportunities to learn the relation between science and jobs and real lives. And they do not appreciate the intelligibility, interest and usefulness in chemistry lessons so much. Science education is requested to promote it.View full abstractDownload PDF (2888K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSI carried out the questionnaire of feeling for science to high school students whom I am belonging to. As a result, it displayed that most of students who dislike science want me to devise my teaching metyod. There were many requests for my teaching, for example, gunderstandable explanationh and gincrease of experiment and observationh.
From these results, I considered desirable direction of effective science education.View full abstractDownload PDF (1158K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSTohoku Association of Chemical Education has been organized since 1993 by several college and high school teachers working in and around Sendai. We have been reading some foreign chemistry textbooks. In the meetings of the association, we have been discussing the differences between Japanese and foreign textbooks, on several critical issues on science education in Japan and on green chemistry education.View full abstractDownload PDF (1236K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSOur school was designated as a Super Science High School (SSH) by the Ministryof Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan in 2002. Since that time, we have developed our curriculum and teaching materials especially in the natural science fields for the first three years, and then initiated Super Science Club (SSC) so that the students' voluntary activities would develop further. We are confident that SSH has revitalized our school and will continue to do so.View full abstractDownload PDF (2430K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSFor training of hopeful young scientists, Super Science High school (research and development school specified by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan) can be received a budget exceeding 10 million yen. At the department of chemistry of our school, apparatuses, such as Ultraviolet Visible spectrometer; UV-VIS, and Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometer; FT-IR, were introduced for various student experiments and club activities. In the experiments about macromolecular compounds, infrared spectra of synthesized polymethyl methacrylate and nylon 6, 6 and established synthetic fiber and plastic were obtained by using FT-IR. Characteristic adsorptions of functional groups in obtained spectra peculiar to each compound were identified with a database for FT-IR analysis. Through above measurements and processing of results, considerations, we were able to utilize it for advanced learning about organic compounds and macromolecular compounds.View full abstractDownload PDF (2866K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSAn effective method to promote science education is the promotion of research activities by the students in the high school chemistry club. In these activities, the students learn about how to search for the answer to their question scientifically. This method gives them valuable experience. A science teacher can help the students reach their goal by guiding their research activities adequately. As a result, it is expected that students will be much more interested in science and the aim of the science education will be becoming easier to achieve. In addition, it leads to bringing up a valuable future technologist.View full abstractDownload PDF (2118K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSAs more interest in environmental problems arose, “biodegradable plastic” began to be treated in the textbooks of the senior high school as a major theme and students showed more interest in the new materials. I supposed it might be possible to give the students some incentive for the chemistry through such new materials. Therefore I decided to do research about the teaching materials of polylactic acid and put them into practice in classes. This practice contained very simple experiments, but by using new materials, students gained successful scientific understanding and logical reasoning of the processes involved. In addition, I could make sure that this method is very useful to increase the students' interest in chemistry.View full abstractDownload PDF (2013K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe high school chemistry education in Japan provides quite limited knowledge useful for daily life. And what is worse, though being infected by superfluous pedantry, it is almost utterly disconnected from university chemistry. Accordingly, even a youngster who has got a perfect score for chemistry in an entrance exam, has to reset his/her brain during the initial stages of university education. Here the author examines how Japanese high school education is “closed, ” what have caused the closure, and what measures could “open” it. The main culprit for the devastation of high school education may be university chemistry professors/researchers who involuntarily take charge of the entrance exam, with complete lack of interest in the real situation of primary/secondary education.View full abstractDownload PDF (2618K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSKanto Branch Division of the SPSJ provides several events for public. The science seminar for high school and junior high school students is one of important events as one of our social activities. Every summer, the executive committee members organize the seminar and invite up to 100 students to get familiar with polymer science through lectures and experiments. Three lectures have delivered by professors of the committee members in the morning, and the invited students were classified into three groups to participate three different experiments after lunch. All the participants really enjoy the experiments, and return to home with better understanding on polymer science.View full abstractDownload PDF (1862K) -
