Abstract

A student who belonged to a department of the mechanical engineering failed an oral employment test. The reason was shocking one."What voltage is the fluorescent light in this room?" "I do not know" "Well, how about a size D battery?" "Maybe 10 voltages" This mistake leaded him to the failure. It was investigated that many students in a science and engineering course including graduate students made that mistake. The social background of such generation is not "YUTORI education" but many kinds of convenient tools. It was pointed out that there would be many problems in Japan, which aims at a nation built on the creativity of science and technology, in the future.
