Association between color and major and minor keys of music in school-aged children
Full text linkOne of the content areas of study in elementary music education is tonality, and students must be able to distinguish between major and minor keys. However, this is a difficult task, raising the question of whether colors could be used as an aid for discrimination. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to clarify the direct nonverbal correspondence between color and tonality in schoolage children. Experiment 1 explored the relationship between music and tonality among upper elementary school students. When asked to choose a color while listening to music, the students selected green, blue, or yellow for the major key and purple for the minor key. However, when presented the single color corresponding to a specific tonality from Experiment 1, they could not differentiate between major and minor keys. This suggests the limitation in using only color to distinguish between major and minor keys.departmental bulletin pape

Changes in the stores and offices along the Kumamoto Prefectural Road 28 west of the Terasako intersection in Mashiki Town one year after the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake
Full text linkWe have confirmed that the commercial activity in Mashiki Town is strongly neighborhood oriented, so that stores are oriented to move to nearby areas when they want to resume their business, although they cannot immediately rebuild on site.
The temporary shopping malls built in Mashiki Town were all small in size, and although the tenants were able to be close to their pre-earthquake stores, they faced problems attracting customers due to the decrease in the number of residents in the neighborhood.departmental bulletin pape
A Case Study of Universal Design of School Facilities in Kumamoto Prefecture
Full text linkWe conducted field visits and interviews to understand examples of barrier-free renovation projects in school facilities across Kumamoto Prefecture and to identify issues to be addressed in promoting such renovation projects.In addition, we interviewed Kumamoto City elementary and junior high schools, which are advanced cases, to understand whether environmental considerations are being made in special-needs classes and other classes.
Budgetary issues and lack of appropriate locations for the installation of barrier-free features in existing school buildings were cited as challenges in making school facilities barrier-free.Numerous sound problems affected the facility environment of special-needs classes. Because several teachers teach in the same room, children are unable to concentrate on their lessons. Some teachers also commented that storage space was inadequate.departmental bulletin pape
