Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A program to help high school students understand the process of inquiry-based learning was developed. In this program, the task was to investigate "why enteric-coated aspirin does not dissolve in the stomach but dissolves in the intestines." Students were guided to explore the process on their own and validate their formulated hypotheses. Classroom implementation was conducted based on the completed program and analyzed the results. Students were able to understand that there are diverse ideas and approaches to problem-solving, as well as the iterative nature of inquiry-based learning, where new hypotheses are formulated based on experimental results and further experiments are conducted. They also experienced the joy of inquiry. However, a teacher's guide for this program was not accomplished.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
現行の学習指導要領では,「主体的・対話的で深い学びの実現」にむけて探究的な学習活動の充実が求められている.探究的な学習の進め方に関しては,成書が出版されているが体験的にそれを学ぶことができる授業プログラムは少ない.本プログラムは2時間程度で一連の探究の過程をたどることができ,生徒が本格的な探究活動を始める前に,探究学習の重要なポイントについて,実感を持って学ぶことができる教材であるといえる.
