Abstract:The purpose of this paper is to shed light on one aspect of the introduction of the melodica into elementaryschool education in Japan, by clarifying the improvements that took place in the manufacturing process of melodicasduring the 1960s and 1970s, focusing on articles and advertisements in music education magazines. After melodicas werefirst imported from Germany around 1961, musical instrument manufacturers in Japan also began to manufacture andimprove them. Educators in elementary and junior high schools soon began using the melodica experimentally, praisingits musical possibilities but demanding improvements in quality.Musical instrument manufacturers immediately set out to improve the quality of the instrument in collaboration withelementary schools. As a result, in 1967, the melodica was approved as an educational tool by the Ministry of Education.Further, with an increase in the number of school children and the corresponding shortage of music rooms andequipment in elementary schools, when the Ministry revised its national curriculum guidelines in 1968 and stipulated thescope of“ basic” education, the melodica was considered a useful instrument for the attainment of this basic education,and elementary school students throughout Japan were soon carrying their personal melodicas. This paper shows thatmusical instrument manufacturers played a large role in the process leading up to the widespread introduction of themelodica into elementary school education.

Abstract:Instead of having the students only memorize and use the usual method of dividing fractions by reversingthe fraction (turning the fractions upside down), the teacher should take advantage of what the students have alreadylearned. The teacher should encourage the students to use what they have learned to think of different ideas andmethods while they discover and gain an understanding about how to divide fractions. Allowing students to learnfrom each other will not only help raise the students' awareness but also their way of thinking about how to do thecalculations to divide fractions. This method of using what they have already learned as well as learning from otherstudents' ideas and methods will also give the students a sense of fulfillment through their active participation

Abstract:As for school education, equality in education should be guaranteed.However, in penmanship education wefind much difference between right-handed students and left-handed students. The main reason is that we often applythe teaching method of right-handed students to the teaching method of left-handed students by turning over simply. Iwould like to point out that we can't solve the problem by just reversing the method of right-handed person. Because,the movement characteristics of fingers differ greatly to a right-handed person and a left-handed person. Moreover I amgoing to argue about the direction of the future of the penmanship education to a left-handed person.
