The objectives of this research as follows:(1) We studied on the educational effect when science teachers developed the curricula on Earth Systems Education(ESE) and practiced them by using the personnel and facilities out of school.(2) We studied on the educational effect when science teachers and students communicated with local people by exhibiting their research works in the public hall and etc.The Research Result:We developed many curricula on ESE, some teaching materials, teaching methods, new assessment methods, programs for teachers' education, learning networks, etc for three years.We showed the educational effects when science teachers established the learning network with their school at its center in order that students willing to learn, and clarified some issues and tasks about its establishment.In The Misaki Junior High School, the Lab school of ESE, the innovative science curricula on ESE were nominated as good curriculum examples by the Kanagawa Board Of Education and enlisted on the Webpage of the National Institute for Educational Policy Research. Some students at that school were awarded the Prime Minister Prize in the Students' Science Research Competition. It was shown that the Earth Systems Education was a good philosophy to integrate science and organize the inquiry-based learning and the science education system at the age of life-long learning and internationalization.
