Outline of Final Research Achievements

Mobile playground equipment is the creation of a play environment with playground equipment that is not fixed, and therefore is not fixed to a specific use in a public place. This means that the attributes of the place can be changed according to the way the users utilize it, and furthermore, by changing the attributes of the place, the way the users utilize it can also be changed. In order for middle and upper elementary school students to obtain their own playgrounds in a modern society where time and space are densely planned and there are no gaps, it is necessary for the environment to respond flexibly, but the practice using mobile playground equipment showed that children in the middle and upper elementary school grades are more involved than ever, and many results were demonstrated. The mobile playground equipment has shown that children in the middle and upper grades of elementary school are more involved than ever.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

市民運動として1970年代から徐々に日本に広がってきたプレーパークは、通常の公園遊具で実現する遊び環境に比較して極めて革新的な取組であり、公共的な場におけるこどもの遊び環境の可能性を大きく広げた。しかし、日本全国でプレイパークとして活動をしている公園は、2016年度で406団体であるが、都市公園は2014年度で105,744箇所の数と比較すると極めて少数であり、必ずしも広く展開できている状況となっていない。公園に基礎で固定する通常の遊具は安全基準による制約から革新的取組は期待できない。移動式遊具の可能性を年公園において3年間にわたり実践検証したことは大きな社会的意義があると考えられる。
