Interesting and enjoyable CHEMICAL EXPERIMENTS FESTIVAL for students
2.Scedule: Date August 5, 2011 Time 13:00`17:00

5.Scope
College of Analytical Chemistry, Japan was established 30 years ago. It has not only produced about 2,800 chemists and analytical chemists to various companies and organizations, but also it has held a large number of chemical festivals for secondary school and high school students for about 20 years. Because most Japanese secondary schools donft have many experiment classes, those school students tend to be likely not to like science. We think that itfs a sort of chemical education crisis.
Then we decided to hold these kinds of chemical festivals for students every summer vacation. By holding such a interesting and enjoyable chemical experiments festival, we would like to make these students understand fun of chemistry through doing our is as hands-on activities and listening interesting lecture.
Lastly we hope that many students will find that chemistry and science technology is very interesting and it is close to our daily life.
