Research Abstract |
The purpose of the study is to develop a new program of science education to train students for future creative engineers who can contribute for solving global problems(including energy problems and environment problems). In the program, students can take a variety of experiential learning and discuss the global problems from various viewpoints to form their own opinions. We obtained the following results ;(1) we developed a new program of science education, in which students can take a variety of experiential learning ;(2) we applied the program to our students and succeeded to develop students' ability ;(3) we found methods to evaluate educational effects of the program ;(4) we demonstrated a large educational effect of the program ;(5) we published papers on this study in academic meetings of educational societies and in educational research journals.
