Considering social contribution after graduation from universities, it is of critical importance for undergraduate students majoring in science not only to advance one’s speciality and technique, but also to attain sociality and communication skills during their school days. To exploit this point, we herein report the effectiveness of “joint learning between different graders” in a scientific experiment class, in which upper and lower graders were joined together, evaluated by questionnaire given to the students with lower grades. The upper graders participated in first graders’ chemical experiment class as facilitators, which gave rise to most of the first graders who answered that the joint learning program is favourable and wish to continuously take part in, thereby confirming the benefit that the joint learning is important for the first-year education of science course students. This result greatly persuaded us to further promote the joint learning program in experiment classes, and also to develop methodologies of the joint learning program best effective for classroom learning, hopefully paving the way for future achievements of the joint education method.
