| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The decline in the learning ability of high school students in Japan has presented concerns among science educators and Japanese scientific communities. In 2012, a new national curriculum framework, the Course of Study (CS) for secondary schools, was introduced in Japanese high school education. To solve the problem described above under new CS, here we have developed several new teaching materials, which can be used in biology course of Japanese high school. Developed teaching materials include those for learning DNA, molecular biology, agarose gel electrophoresis, manual PCR, symbiotic hypothesis, immunity, and also viruses. A teaching material for learning viruses can be used not only for Basic Biology but also learning Modern Society or Health and Physical Education. Furthermore, we have developed new applications, which are useful to learning biology with cooperation between biology and other subjects, such as geography.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
「生物基礎」ならびに「生物」において分子生物学や進化生物学を中心とする分野が拡充されたことにより、高校生物で生徒が学習すべき内容は大幅に深化したが、これらの内容を体験できる生徒実験・生物教材は不足していた。本研究では、特にこれらが不足している分野（分子生物学、進化生物学、生物系統学、免疫学、ウイルス学）で用いることができる簡便な生徒実験・生物教材を新たに作ることに成功し、そのうちいくつかについて授業実践による教育効果が確かめられた。本研究で開発した新しい生徒実験・生物教材は、現状における不足を補い、生命科学の時代と呼ばれる今世紀に活躍する人材育成に、大きく貢献できることが期待できる。
