Outline of Final Research Achievements

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) equipment is powerful device that can determine the chemical structure of organic compounds, and are described as a development section on many chemistry textbooks for the high school students. In this research, we developed experimental teaching materials that can be used in the high school such as training of teachers and exploration activities using a small nuclear magnetic resonance device that can be measured and analyzed. In order to examine the effectiveness of the experimental teaching materials developed in this research, we created ICT teaching materials on how to use the equipment and how to analyze the data after the measurements, and evaluated the teaching materials by practicing them in experimental lectures on the educational university.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

高校化学では有機化合物について、化学構造とともに有機化合物の性質について学ぶ。有機化合物の構造を高校で知るためには、現在教科書記載の方法では、目視による物質の確認や、特徴的な化学反応性を調べる手段しか用いることが出来ず、今後発展すると考えられる有機化合物に関する課題解決型学習に制限が生じるものと考えられる。本研究では、学校現場でも測定可能な核磁気共鳴装置を用いた簡単に実験ができる教材を開発し、高校の生徒や生徒を指導する教師を対象にして、この装置でできることが理解できるような情報提示法に関する工夫を行った。
