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.

Cooperation between High Schools andUniversities project electromagnetic induction andsuperconduction. On Thursday, November 8, Science coursestudents (first graders) had a class with a professor of Ehime University in thephysics second laboratory. We invited Mr. Kamimori Tatsuo, a professorof Ehime University graduate school of science and engineering.  Students had a lecture and did an experiment. The professor explained phenomenon causedby electromagnetic induction and eddy current.  He also explained principles of electromagneticinduction by Faraday.  After thatstudents examined the condition of the turn of an aluminum board by eddycurrent and falls of magnets. Next, the professor explained a superconductingphenomenon and cooled a superconducting substance with liquid nitrogen.  When students confirmed a superconductingcondition, shouts of surprise broke out everywhere. After the lecture they asked Prof. Kamimorimany questions.  It seemed that they feltgreat interest in his lecture. Thank you for Prof. Kamimori.  (O.H.)
