Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims at clarifying the historical characteristics of the modern Japanese teachers' growing process of curriculum designing, by comparing their experiences of developing project-based curriculum in elementary schools with those of American teachers of the same period. At first, the study saw the theoretical background and the practical characters of the project-based curriculum which arouse in the States, and then investigated on how such kind of curriculum was introduced and was developed in Japan. After the comparison between the efforts done in both countries, some interesting Japanese tendencies were found; first, Japanese teachers had less freedom to design the educational contents at their discretion and therefore had little chance to develop their curriculum designing abilities after long. And secondly, Japanese teachers tended to make professional development efforts outside of their official work, rather personally.
