Although the “Technology of Living Things” is a compulsory part of secondary school technology education since 2012, the current situation wherein the gardens of many schools are in an undeveloped state, cannot be overlooked. Therefore, in this study, we assessed the present condition (i.e., the area and soil environment) of school gardens in elementary and secondary schools; then tasks were developed from the viewpoint of agronomy and pedagogy. We also interviewed teachers about the history of their school gardens. A field survey was carried out from March to October 2012 in Saitama Prefecture, and the location and soil condition of 56 school gardens were recorded. As a result, the school gardens were classified into four groups based on their total area (50 m2) and humus content rate (3%). A school garden of smaller area was not being used by a class in a secondary school. In addition, even if the total area exceeded 50 m2, the usage rate has remained only about 30% if the corresponding humus rate was low. On the other hand, about 60% of the school gardens with large area and high humus content rate were used, with the support of the local people., text, application/pdf}, pages = {121--132}, title = {栽培面積と腐植率を指標とした学校園の分類 : 埼玉県内の小中学校を例に<教育科学>}, volume = {71}, year = {2022}, yomi = {タシロ, シオリ and アラキ, ユウジ} }
