Abstract

Although it is not necessary to have much mathematical knowledge in major courses of Animal Resources curriculums in agricultural high school, the function of mathematics class has a much effect on major courses. Therefore, we extracted the mathematics contents included in major courses of Animal Resources curriculums in agricultural high school, and also evaluated students’ understanding according to the description method in textbooks of major courses. Furthermore, we analyzed students’ preference about the description method in textbooks related to the major courses. As a result, it turns out that the level of mathematics contents of Animal Resources major curriculums does not break bounds of middle school level. Furthermore, many students are not able to solve the middle school level of problems. It is also shown that the most preferred description method in textbooks of Animal Resources major curriculums is the sentence-equation mixed type. In this study, we propose to reconstruct the mathematics contents with basic knowledge needed to complete the major courses in order that students can complete them more easily, and furthermore, to choose the description method in textbooks of major courses as sentence-equation mixed type and detailed explanation about terms should be included into the bargain.
