Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this research was to develop teaching-materials to enhance reasoning skills of non-continuous text for integrated studies.
We developed a test of logical thinking and teaching-materials for integrated studies. And furthermore, we introduced logic and "Philosophy for Children" to teaching design. Using the materials we designed practical learning at the attached junior high school of Hyogo University of Teacher Education. It was proved some materials were able to practice in elementary schools. The materials were useful to enhance reasoning skills of non-continuous text for integrated studies.
