Outline of Final Research Achievements

The expectation of citizens in education is to improve students’ educational skill. In evidence of that, most of us focus on the result of the Ministry of Education sponsored nationwide academic achievement survey. Especially in science, improvement of academic ability of children is an urgent issue in order to aim to make nation that has high sense of science and technology. In this study, I utilized museums, schools, private educational resources and local residents. Furthermore, instead of just science, I introduced subjective, interactive and deep learning to nurture useful forms of academic ability. As a result, out of motivation for learning .I could strengthen the usefulness and willingness to cooperate to solve problems. In terms of educational skill, I could improve utilizing academic ability of children. Therefore, in this research, I infer that there is a great possibility of improving students’ motivation and academic ability by collaborating with related organization.
