| Research Abstract |
Hands-on activity in science classroom education is very much important not only in developed countries but also in under developing countries, In under developing country, simplification of the method, adaptation for the environment which can be available in the local diverse situation are necessary for the development of hands-on activity. At the same time syllabus and textbook analysis are also important.
In this study some international cooperation projects which were carried out by Hiroshima University through Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) were historically and comparatively analyzed. Then international cooperation systems through JICA are analyzed especially in Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers JOCV system, and project type international cooperation.
The followings are revealed from this research: 1) In Philippine project, cascade model was introduced in the system and many teacher in-service programs and teaching materials in science education are developed. In Kenya project, the cascade model was inherited in the system, but the local in-service science teacher training was much more focused in the districts. In Bangladesh project, several pilot local districts were selected and special teaching packages are developed. In Zambia project, JOCV group dispatch was introduced. 2) Syllabus and text book analysis were carried out in Bangladesh science education, and some hands-on activities which can be used in in-service teacher program are trialed and evaluated.
