| Research Abstract |
Realization of the existing state of recent progress of science and technology and its rapid diffusion not only in industry but into social and home life does not admit mutual isolation of science and technology to each other.
Present science and technology (industrial art) education in Japan was analyzed with respect to each field and territory, and investigated synthetically.
Logical reasons of science to function to technology and to practical applications, industry and life, were induced to following five courses ;
A. Substances and materials
B. Energy
C. Information and its applications (metrology and control)
D. Life and Environment (biology and biotechnology)
E. Systematic sense and thought
Japanese science education seems to be improved to emphasize systematic sense in new syllabi of every fields which were revised three years ago. However, curricula of technology education are still lacking in systematic composition.
Dr. Asai (head investigator) presented a series of paper to indicate the review of Japanese technology education with a view to reconstructing its curricula in the near future.
Dr. Joh (co-operator) published the same opinion from the view point of information education.
At the meeting of The Japan Society of Science Education, the president Dr. Ohki (co-operator) gave a basic lecture of the symposium to propose applied science education. At the same symposium, Dr. Asai spoke about the basis of the technology education in the future.
