Unfortunately, most papers since the HEC (Kasetsu) advocacy in 1963 have been written in Japanese. This page lists the primary papers published in English, selected by the Hypothesis–Experiment Class (Kasetsu) Translation and Publication Committee. Please note that for papers published before 2018, Hypothesis–Experiment Class (Kasetsu) is translated as Hypothesis–Experiment Instruction (HEI).

| Itakura advocated Kasetsu Jikken Jugyo, or Hypothesis Experiment Class(HEC)in English, in 1963. The lesson plan ‘Spring and Force’, developed and published in the early days of Itakura’s work, remains highly effective at teaching statics in schools, even today.

| The authors highlight the importance of promoting science education through the use of materials and methods to teach the most basic concepts or laws of science. At the heart of this process is experimentation and using ideas and guidance from the Hypothesis-Experiment Classbooks to promote science learning.
