about Matsuyama Minami High School

 Ehime Prefectural Matsuyama Minami High School has been designated as a Super Science High School (SSH) by Japan's Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology since 2002. We have been researching and developing programs for science education in cooperation with universities and research institutes. We try to bring fascinating and inspiring science activities not only to our students but also to the local community.  Each of our students does a great deal of individual research, and because of their strenuous effort, they have won prizes in various kinds of science fairs.

about SSH

 The SSH project was started in 2002 as part of the "Scientific Literacy Enhancement Initiative" by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. It aims to develop student abilities and develop global leaders with great ambitions in the field of science. And technology. As of 2021, there are 218 high schools designated as SSH, including ours.

  Today's SS was the 5th time this fiscal year.
  Second graders summarized the results so far and created materials for the research plan presentation. Discovery and experience gained by announcing is also important. Let's prepare carefully so that you can get advice.

  First graders measured gravitational acceleration as an experiment in geoscience field. First, they learned the basic knowledge of the structure of the earth and gravity. Then they measured the period of the pendulum and calcurated the gravitational acceleration. They were able to learn how to precisely measure by using stopwatch, how to process data, and realize the wonder of the natural law.
