Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is said that a great number of the terms in the high school biology textbooks makes students choose the subject physics or chemistry rather than biology. In one among five textbooks of the basic biology (standard, 1st ed.) 827 terms were found, while only 572 in the other. Recently revised textbooks contained from 700 to 799 terms. The latest textbooks both the standard and the large format, used a few unique terms, and became rather moderate. Five textbooks of the biology (1st ed.) contained roughly twice as many terms as in the basic biology. And the Jitukyo's one contained only 35 unique terms. The collected terms were evaluated and classified into the most essential, the essential terms and the rest. There is considerable variation in the spelling with kanji, and each of the textbooks uses different spellings. Such synonyms of many terms were also evaluated and suitable terms were selected. It is advisable to use the most and the essential terms in the textbooks.
