About
Dr. Yasuyuki Goto is a dedicated researcher in engineering education, with a particular focus on fostering scientific interest and technical literacy among young students. His work centers on the concept of *Monozukuri*—the Japanese philosophy of manufacturing and craftsmanship—as a pedagogical tool to address declining academic standards and waning enthusiasm for science, as highlighted by international assessments like PISA and TIMSS. His most-cited study, “Effect of Engineering Education by Science Classroom for High School, Junior High School and Elementary School Students” (2010, 4 citations), examines how hands-on engineering activities can re-engage schoolchildren with STEM subjects. Goto’s contributions lie in bridging the gap between theoretical science education and practical, creative problem-solving, demonstrating that early exposure to manufacturing processes can reverse trends of disinterest. Though his citation count is modest, his work is notable for its direct societal impact, targeting a critical educational challenge. By advocating for experiential learning from elementary through high school, Goto has helped shape curriculum approaches that prioritize innovation and resilience in future generations of engineers and scientists.
