It seldom snows in south Kyushu. Therefore, it is very effective to show unique artificial snow crystals for Junior High School Students. It's prsumable that they should have a greater interest in Science from seeing ephemeral artificial snow crystals and this extension course should contribute to increased nummbers of students preparing for an entrance examination to Miyakonojo National College of Technology, though the population of applicants has been decreasing recently. The experiment certainly cultivates creativity or originality, and gives not simple knowledge but intellectual theory. This extention course was operated by a teacher of high school physics. The project team is most important not only for industry, but for education as well. It shall be expected that this experience of forming artificial snow crystals shall be usefull for students in the future of the natural sciences or humanities.
