Research Abstract |
In this study, we set up a purpose to develop new teaching materials under new Japanese national curriculum framework, the Course of Study (CS) for secondary schools, especially in molecular biology and evolutionary biology. As results, we could have developed some effective biology teaching materials, such as improved “Origami bird” protocol (OB), activity to teach molecular phylogeny (MP), which link micro-biology to macro-biology. These two teaching materials, OB and MP were published in one of Biology textbooks for Japanese high school students.
