Decreasing interest in science is one of the serious problems of high school education. The aim of this research is to develop teaching materials by which high school students realize characteristics of celestial objects and cosmic scales through practical analysis of real data of observation, and to promote their scientific interests, ability of logical thinking, and creativity.In the first year, we developed teaching materials, "Hubble's law", "Supernova and distance of a galaxy" for high school, and "Let's measure brightness of stars", 'Let's find the minor planet" for elementary school. The observational data are selected from authentic images obtained at National Astronomical Observatory of Japan, etc The curricula are developed with collaborating teachers. Along with the teaching materials, we developed software for the image analysis The next year, we developed "Stellar magnitude and brightness", "Rotation period of the Sun", and "H-R diagram of stars" for high school. We have also revised "Nature of light and color of stars", and the teachers' guide of "Hubble's law". In the last year, we developed "Temperature of sunspot", revised "Supernova and distance of a galaxy" and "Stellar magnitude and brightness" based on the practice, and also examined educational effect of the teaching materials with the questionnaires before/after practice and with the student's worksheets on the practice.In order to make our fruits spread, we have held workshops for the staffs of schools, museums, science centers, public astronomical observatories, etc., and the proceedings are widely distributed to the interests.

对科学的兴趣下降是高中教育的严重问题之一。本研究的目的是开发教材，让高中生通过对实际观测数据的实际分析，认识天体和宇宙尺度的特征，提高他们的科学兴趣、逻辑思维能力和创新能力。在第一年，我们开发了高中教材《哈勃定律》、《超新星与星系距离》和小学教材《让我们测量恒星的亮度》、《让我们寻找小行星》。观测数据选自日本国家天文台等获得的真实图像。课程是与合作教师共同开发的。与教材一起，我们开发了图像分析软件，第二年，我们开发了高中阶段的《恒星等与亮度》、《太阳自转周期》和《恒星H-R图》。我们还修订了《恒星的光与色的性质》和《哈勃定律》的教师指南。在过去的一年里，我们开发了《太阳黑子温度》，在实践的基础上修订了《超新星与星系距离》和《恒星等与亮度》，并通过实践前后的问卷和学生关于实践的工作表来检验教材的教育效果。为了使我们的成果得到传播，我们为学校、博物馆、科学中心、公共天文台等的工作人员举办了研讨会，会议记录被广泛分发给感兴趣的人。请查看我们的万维网网站http://paofits.nao.ac.jp/.您也可以在URL中找到我们的教材和相关内容。
