Outlines of centenary history on science education in Japan of which effects contributed on culture modernization of Japan, was introduced first. Around 300 years' seclusion of this country made her culture far behind of many Europian countries. In order to make Japan more civilized country, the Japanese government invited many western bright scientists who taught science and technology mainly in Tokyo University. Wars happened in 1894-5 against China, and in 1904-5 against Russia. The Japanese army circles convinced these victories were led by superior weapons which were imported mainly from U. K. or Germany, and they convinced that promotion of science research and education is necessary to fix the national policy, 'A RICH COUNTRY WITH A STRONG ARMY'. The policy had been succeeded until around the end of the World War II . After the war, however, scientists and educators advocated that in order to be peaceful, nations should be endowed scientific attitude by innovated science education. Accordingly after the latter half century, PSSC, CBA, CHEMS AND BSCS of U. S. Projects were established and played important role in promotion of science education. Discussions on PSSC and BSCS are made, especially their influences to Japanese science education. Activities of the Japan Society of Science Education contributed the progress of science education during the past two decades. A COURSE OF STUDY has strong influence on teaching subjects for every level of school education in Japan. Class hour for science has been reduced during the past 35 years. Every scientists and technologists in Japan are now worry about degeneracy of innovative researches on science and technology in near future. One more problem is pointed out that Japanese course of study fails in plasticity of curricula. More discussions should be made in science classes, in order to make students more scientific-minded. National Science Education Standards of the United States which was proclaimed recently might show us some valuable suggestions in revising our COURSE OF STUDY. Finally some hints are given to promote the JAPAN SOCIETY OF SCIENCE EDUCATION.
