| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to develop the effective curriculum on the base of the results of brain sciences on child development.
First, on the development of children from the age of zero to t hat of twelve the classical Piaget's theory might be mostly restressed by Professor K Fischer, Harvard University, and in addition, Professor Nakagaki discovered the'jump or stage'around the age of 9 in'change of phase'whether children can distinguish the real world from the possible world, based on the change which we can make a more'general developmental stages'that has been wondered so fat Moreover, Dr. J.Giedd (NIB) and his group found that new neurons should be produced to make the neuron network renewal around the age of 9, the early adolescence.
Second, Dr. Sakatsume is eager to invent a good method of assessment of developmental disorder children from the viewpoint of higher brain functions, in terms of neuropsychology and clinical psychology. He developed a manual of assessment method and instructional method in practices.
Third, Professor Mio tried to collect a lot of data from his experimental lessons for teachers who had 10 years experience, and he got a temporal system of Immersive VR which could make us show a better instruction in terms of the result of brain sciences than before.
Finally, Abiko could make sure that his theory' Shifting interest and need center theory(SINCT)'and his development of curriculum through school years had an appropriate theoretical basis from those results of his colleagues research above, and he has more confidence that the 6-3 school system should be reformed to 4-2-3 system which must be more effective to develop children's abilities in education.
