　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.

Hands-on Programming Class

2023年7月21日 17時00分

On Friday, July 21, a hands-on programming class was held at the Media Hall in Ehime University's Comprehensive Information and Media Center. 　Twenty-five elementary school students from Matsuyama City participated in the class and experienced programming using LEGO Education SPIKE Prime.

The school's ICT education support staff and STEAM education support staff served as instructors, and two Ehime University students, who work as school supporters , and 16 first- and second-year students from the school supported the elementary school students as teaching assistants. 　First, the students created their own robot cars with LEGO bricks, programmed them using the SPIKE software, and gave them a test drive. 　Next, they improved the robot car by using gear parts to make it run faster, and finally, everyone competed in a robot car race.

Thank you to all the students who participated in the event. We hope that this event will spark your interest in programming and robot.

 　All of the children in this hands-on class were interested in programming, and they immediately put into practice what we taught them, such as how to move forward and how to make it faster, which we enjoyed.
