Outline of Final Research Achievements |
1. I made clear that importance of the scientific communication increased by the result of sociological studies about science. 2. I examined the idea of "the 21st century science" course in England and pointed out that the understanding about science and scientists was made much of. 3. I researched it whether the self-perception of high school science teachers had any influences on their science education purpose view. I examined it on this occasion from 4 points of view: everyday life person, scientific careerist, member of democratic society and the cultured person. As a result, the next points became clear. ①In them, there are few people having an identity that I am a person near a scientist. ②They are engaged in science education for the purpose of contributing to the future everyday life of students.
