Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study I practiced education program of science communication for science and engineering students, and explored the evaluation method. The Fields of this study were Tokyo Institute of Technology (FYH2011, 2012) and Hokkaido University (FY2013, 2014). While slightly changed the framework by changing the field, I conducted the following practices and research. 1) The design of communication and learning program in collaboration with university students and graduate students and civil such as school teachers and working adults. 2) A development of the evaluation method of science communication program. For the evaluation method, it were examined visualization by the awareness of science communication used network analysis, and rubric for the formative evaluation.
