Ten SSH-designated schools from the Shikoku area gathered online over zoom, and third-year students presented the results of their research along with a question and answer session. Schools took turns to give presentations, with ten in total online over zoom. From our school, the "vitamin C" group presented on the theme of "Establishment of a quantitative method for measuring β carotene contained in pea sprouts". During the course of the research, the experimental results were not reproducible, and when we suggested that we consider the cause, the lecturer agreed, and told us all that that attitude is important. Furthermore, all second and third-year students of the science and mathematics course attended and actively participated in the question and answer session.
