Abstract
The Course of Study was revised in 2010 and the field of physical anthropology has been covered in the elective courses in the newly compiled high school text books of “Biology” since 2013. Though, many high school teachers are interested in the study of human evolution, they are rather unfamiliar to this field because they were not given an opportunity to sufficiently study this field in their school days. In order to have such teachers give lessons of this field enthusiastically, we discussed what The Committee of Diffusion of Education of the Anthropological Society of Japan could be able to do.
