COURSE LIST

The seminars are aimed at junior and senior high school teachers and feature reports and question-and-answer sessions on the research results of ISS members. The aim is to help teachers deepen their understanding of the research being conducted at ISS and to have them apply what they learn to their teaching in junior and senior high schools.

In order to encourage researchers to make the best use of the survey data kept in the SSJ Data Archive, we conduct a short-term training program on the statistical analysis and the basic use of the statistical software package.
