Abstract

The education for students who aim to become space engineers will become more and more important in the future, and its education have to be conducted for a wide range of age groups. We had an opportunity to hold a Model Rocket Self-Production Course and Model Rocket Contest for KOSEN students. Using a Model Rocket kit developed by NASA in USA, students made Rocket using black powder during the production course and competed with each other at the Model Rocket contest. Although most students did not have any such experiences, they succeeded producing rockets and experimenting with them. Students were engaged in rocket development and attained new space technology skills. The successive production course and contest for Model Rocket is promising theme for project based learning.
