This study is intended to figure out how the 6th grade students carry out newly added standards regard to the problem solving in the revised mathematics curriculum in 2007 and 2009, which are 'finding useless information in a given problem', 'finding insufficient information in a given problem', and 'posing new problem by changing conditions of the given problem.' In order to achieve this goal, we examined the characteristics of 200 elementary students' problem posing. We constructed and used the survey sheet which consisted of 6 items relevant to 'finding useless information in a given problem', 'finding insufficient information in a given problem', and 'posing new problem by changing conditions of the given problem.'

To provide some suggestions on the setting of mathematics test in the College Scholastic Ability Test(CSAT), this paper analyses the result of mathematics test in the CSAT from 2005 to 2011, on which the 7th national mathematics curriculum has been applied. From the result, four suggestions are drawn out. First, the mathematics test needs to be easier to reduce the burden of test-taker. Accordingly, the number of items and their scores need to be adjusted. Second, the proportion of multiple-choice items has to be reduced whereas that of short-answer items has to be increased to enhance the function of the CSAT as a selection test. Third, the sub-item system needs to be adopted. Fourth, new item-types have to be developed.

The focus of this dissertation is on the comparative Analysis of Questions in the 'Matter Units of Elementary Science Textbook between the 7th Curriculum and the Revised Curriculum Year 2007. The results of the comparative Analysis in the dissertation are as follows: There were more closed questions than open questions in these elementary science textbooks both of the 7th Curriculum and the Revised Curriculum Year 2007. Cognitive-memory questions were the most frequently asked in all grade levels. In the Revised Curriculum Year 2007, Convergent thinking questions presented with higher rate than the 7th Curriculum. Divergent thinking questions and evaluative thinking questions was presented with a relatively lower rate than the 7th Curriculum. Question types were applied based on the characteristics of each unit rather than on children's developmental characteristics.

The Integrated Center for Early Childhood Education and Care established 595 centers in 2013 that are integrated kindergarten and nursery centers. The Japanese government revised the law for the Center for Early Childhood Education and Care in 2012 and published the standards for equipment, management, and curriculum for early childhood education and care in April 2014. Presently the standards for equipment and management for integrated centers for early childhood education and care is based on a higher level than kindergarten and nursery centers. Therefore, the quality of education and care that the kindergarten and nursery centers are currently providing can be expected to continue. However childhood education and care curriculum is excessively emphasized education. Because infants and toddlers of 0-5years are spending most of the day in integrated centers for early childhood education and care, the contents related to childcare should be strengthened.

From 2011, newly developed Information textbook will be given to high school students. This research investigates contents of the new Information textbook and attempts to offer improvement of the book, which were compiled according to the 2007 Revised Curriculum. This thesis aims to make a comparative analysis of the contents and structure of six Information textbook which passed the screening. The structures of six textbooks were examined under four sections, which are overall structure, relative importance in the textbook, development method, and evaluation type. Moreover, for analyzing the contents, the research investigated the number of the major concepts that are dealt in the textbooks. The results show that there are too many difficult concepts for high school students and reveals that there are big difference in the contents and construction among textbooks. This research suggests how the textbook should be revised in the light of the contents, construction, terminology, and practical training.

The Purpose of this study was to analyze STS contents in elementary school science textbooks according to 6th, 7th and revision 2007 national curriculum. The contents of STS were analyzed by the STS elements of Yager and the STS topics of Piel's standard. Major findings from the analyses are as follows: (1) The STS contents in the science textbooks of the 6th curriculum took up 13.7% and increased to 18.3% in the 7th and 19.0% in the revision 2007, which showed that the textbooks followed the goal of the national curriculum faithfully. (2) Based on the STS elements by Yager's standard, most of STS content is focused on 'Application of science', 'Social problems and issues' and 'Local and community relevance'. (3) Based on the STS topics by Piel's standard, most of STS contents are focused on 'Effect of technological development' and 'Society of science'. These results indicate that recent STS education trends are reflected on the 6th, 7th and revision 2007 textbooks well. However, it is suggested that some improvement is needed, such as diversification of topic.
