Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, the classes on composition and decomposition of force were held for elementary school, lower secondary school and upper secondary school using digital teaching contents synthesized mathematics and science. The teaching plans of these classes were brushed up with school teachers and a university teacher. In elementary school and lower secondary school, the demonstration of a tug-of- war was held, and have showed the balanced forces also. Learners in elementary school and lower secondary school have got the image of balance and have tried to get exact data from their experiments. In upper secondary school, digital contents have showed the procedures of experiments on composition and decomposition of force, learners in upper secondary school have tried to use the knowledge of mathematics, for example trigonometric ratio and vector, for understanding of balanced forces.
