In the Seeds of Research seminar, real researchers will share with you in a workshop format the knowledge and ideas necessary to begin research, such as finding a research theme and the philosophy of research.

[theme.

The "Rolodex of Research!" to be acquired through PET bottle rocket research.

~Learn the basic flow and concept of research while conducting research for one month.

Contents

PET bottle rockets are known as a familiar and easy-to-create research subject, and are suitable as teaching materials for physical phenomena such as "action-reaction". In addition, since there are many actual researchers and examples of their work at other schools, it is easy to conduct a literature search, which is important for research, and to formulate hypotheses.

This time, we will actually conduct a month-long research on this PET bottle rocket theme. The participants will be able to experience a series of flow (investigate the contents, formulate a hypothesis, verify the hypothesis, and formulate a new hypothesis). Since the students will be able to experience the series of steps (investigate the contents, formulate a hypothesis, verify the hypothesis, and formulate a new hypothesis), they will be able to continue their experiments at school after the seminar, and they will also be able to pursue their original research themes based on the research know-how they have gained.

The seminar will include the following
