Research Abstract |
This research clarified present status of articulation from comprehensive high school and vocational high school to university of science education in Japan as described below. 1.We conducted a survey of students' going to university by questionnaire to 809 technical high schools, commercial high schools and comprehensive high schools in Japan (collection rate was 45.6 percent). The result was that students in both technical and commercial high schools who go to university tend to increase, and a difference was recognized in its degree among these high schools. The rate where students in comprehensive high school go to university is high compared to that of vocational high school, but its rate was divided into two kinds. In the meanwhile, in all high schools, most students go to university by special screening, and few students go to university by achievement test even in high school where more than 100 students go to university. For example, few vocational high schools set general subj

ect such as mathematics III and physics II, which is tested in individual entrance examination, to regular subject. The rate where supplementary lesson is held is high, but the rate of setting a regular course and class of entering to university is low. 2.We conducted a survey by listening to principals of 11 technical high schools and comprehensive high schools, which work on students' going to university actively. As a result, it was clarified that these high schools planned to grow students premised on continuing education in university. In addition, by its planning, it was divided into 4 categories. A) School reorganized into specialized high school with new concept B) School reorganized by focusing on subject with characteristics C) School reorganized into comprehensive school D) School working on students' going to university actively without changing fundamentals of school. These 4 types are assumed to be decided by being influenced by needs in area, tradition, achievement and personnel changes of teachers. 3.In survey by questionnaire and pursuit research, a firm evidence where a difference of number of subjects students take and credits taken by them arising out of department such as general and technical department in high school they came from influences study of students after entrance was not recognized. An example, however, was found that, by whatever screening method students enter a university, incomplete understanding of science and mathematics in high school gives ill influence upon study after entrance.
