Outline of Final Research Achievements

Course of study indicates that it is necessary to enable students to notice characteristics of woods, metals and plastics based on scientific evidence by measurement of hardness, strength and specific gravity, and by experiment and observation with heat, electricity, light, sound and water, etc.
Simple testing machines which junior high school teachers can produce by themselves, and have implemented, at junior high schools, in effect of metallic materials, cross-sectional size and configurations on bending strength of bars have been developed. As the result, understanding and interest of students on technology and metallic materials increased. The machines were lent out to junior high school teachers in Fukuoka prefecture.
