Abstract

This paper describes an effective learning method using model rockets for junior high school students to increase their interest in science and engineering. First, we conducted the model rocket workshops and taught how to make model rockets for junior high school students. Next, we organized the model rocket competition that the participants compete for the accuracy of a model rocket’s landing point. Almost all the students took part in the competition using their own designed model rockets. The results of the questionnaire conducted for the competition participants indicated that a lot of participants enhanced the interest in model rockets. In this paper, we report that the experience-based learning gives children the opportunities to learn proactively towards the goal.
