We analyzed various participatory technology assessment methods. Furthermore, we considered the capability that students needed in the methods. Based on above, we developed science curriculum(program, textbook and others). We tried them in real science classes and events. As the results of this study demonstrated, the science curriculum which we developed was effective. Additionally, we carried out the survey of citizens in Sagamihara. It was suggested that the civic participation in technology policy making and the science curriculum development got approval by citizens.
