本日のASⅢでは、E1（提案を創造する）、E2（地域を創造する）の２つの本評価を実施しました。生徒たちはパソコン室でまず自己評価（評価シートに記入）をし、それぞれの担当者が待つ部屋に向かいます。先行研究を活かすことができたか、地域にどのような提案ができたか、地域と連携して研究を進めることができたかなど、合わせて１１の評価項目について、しっかり自分の言葉で説明することができていました。

　面談が終わった生徒たちは、論文のリライトに取り組みます。先日提出した論文に加えるのは、「継続研究する後輩へのアドバイス」と「天草市に対して貢献できること」の２項目です。AS（天草サイエンス）の総まとめのASⅢ。ASⅠ～ASⅢの３年間、地域に密着した研究をしてきた人も、そうでない人も、何らかの形で研究の成果を天草市 に還元し、地域とつながりつづけていってほしいと思っています。

    Today in AS III, we conducted two evaluations, E1 (Creating a proposal) and E2 (Creating a community). The students first completed their self-evaluation by filling out the evaluation sheet in the computer room and then went to the rooms where their respective supervisors were waiting for them. In the interview, the students were able to explain in their own words, including whether they were able to make use of their previous research, what proposals they were able to make to the community, and whether they were able to promote their research in cooperation with the community.

　After the interviews were over, the students worked on rewriting their paper as a summary of AS (Amakusa Science) classes. We hope everyone can return the results of their research to Amakusa City in some way and continue to be connected with the local community.

 

　今日のASⅢでは、まず、８月に行われるスーパーサイエンス生徒研究発表会への参加を希望している三班への、選考に関する説明が行われました。この発表会へ参加する学校代表を決定するために、来週5月9日のこの時間に選考会が予定されています。この選考会に向けて、各班、班で協力しながら準備を進めているところです。残り少ない時間ではありますが、三つの班ともそれぞれベストを尽くしてくれることと思います。発表が楽しみです。

　今年度になり、ASの授業も週１回、１時間のみとなっています。外に出てデータを集めたり、じっくり実験を行うことがなかなか難しい中、どの班も限られた時間を有効に使って研究を進めています。物理室と地学室の２箇所で研究を進めていますが、下の写真で分かるように、地学室は前に２年生ASクラス、後ろに３年生ASクラスがおり、何ともにぎやかです。２年生の研究テーマが決まると、２年生が物理室にも進出（？）し、異学年間で交流しながら研究を進めていく予定になっています。継続研究の班が出てくるか？　それとも、今までになかった超ユニークな研究が始まるか？　乞うご期待です！

　

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 　Today's AS III session began with an explanation for the three groups that are hoping to participate in the SSH Research Presentation in Kobe in August. A presentation is scheduled for this time next week, on May 9, to choose the school representative who will go to Kobe. All three groups are now working hard to prepare for next week. Even with a limited time left, we’re sure that everyone will give their best. We have high expectations for them!

　Although they used to have two hours’ research time a week, this year they have only one hour instead. While it is becoming more difficult for them to go outside to collect data or conduct time-taking experiments, all the groups are making effective use of the limited time to conduct their research. They have been working in two classrooms: the Physics and the Earth Science rooms. As you can see in the photos, in the Earth Science room, all the 2nd graders are working in the space in front, while some 3rd graders are working in the back. Later this term, some second graders will join them in the physics room, which will make all the 2nd and 3rd graders in AS class working in the same room.  It will make it easier for them to ask questions or make suggestions to each other, and hopefully that will make each research even more interesting. Would you like to see what would happen? Please wait for our next article!
