    Though regrettable, Okinawa Prefecture is known as lowest area of academic ability. The purpose of this research is to cancel the gap of main island and a detached island through the measures which make a lifestyle establish the academic ability of the elementary and junior high school students (I include a detached island) of the lowest Okinawa. I let investigation pass and the following became clear. (1) The children of main island have the lifestyle. (2) The children of main island have a clear target.(3) The children of main island have a college student close. However, the following also became clear in one side.(4) There are many supplementary lessons of after school, spring vacation, etc. among the children of main island. (5) The mental fear of insecurity of the children of main island is high. (6) The children of main island have a high truancy tendency. (7) The children of main island have a high feeling of school maladaptation.

  • Organizational Development for Active Learning-Based Undergraduate Education Reform

    Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research(B)

    Project Year: 2015.04  -  2019.03 

    Investigator(s): FUJITSUKA Tomokazu 

    Direct: 13,100,000 (YEN)  Overheads: 17,030,000 (YEN)  Total: 3,930,000 (YEN)

    　View Summary

    The result of analysis of a student survey indicates that the implementation of active learning strategies, such as individual tutelage and problem-solving skill instruction, is a determining factor in the development of student attitudes toward self-directed learning. In the field of engineering, lecture-style courses for freshmen and sophomores and experiment-style courses for juniors and seniors have a positive impact on the development of such attitudes. From this, we can assume that coherent coordination of various types of active learning strategies from entrance to exit of a four-year university education can play a significant role in providing effective educational curricula. Furthermore, the result of analysis of an on-site survey of liberal arts colleges in the U.S. indicates that U.S. colleges provide strong support for teaching staff by facilitating frequent meetings to discuss the effects of active learning beyond their specialties.
