抄録

In a previous paper (Sato et al., 2002), we introduced three physical models which we had constructed to help pupils in understanding general earthquake concepts such as (1) the three-dimensional plate configuration around Japan and its connection with earthquake occurrence, (2) the mechanism of earthquakes along the interface between oceanic and continental plates, and (3) the three-dimensional distribution of earthquakes in and around Japan. These models were respectively named (1) "Why Do Earthquakes Occur?", (2) "The True Character of Earthquakes" and (3) "Where Do Earthquakes Occur?". In the present study, we examine in detail the significance of these physical models by conducting several practical science classes with and without them at a junior high school. Based on a questionnaire conducted after the classes, the pupils seem to feel that each of these models, especially the second one, is very interesting and useful to them. It is also clearly indicated, through statistical tests of examinations given to the pupils after the classes, that teaching about earthquakes with these models is more effective than that without them.
