【For High School Teachers】”The 5th Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting” February 1, 2020 (Sat) Call for Participants

The “Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting” is a place where people who transcend the boundaries of schools and their establishments to exchange ideas and concerns about school and homeroom management, class improvement, etc., and share their thoughts on solutions.

The 5th meeting will be held as follows.
This time, under the theme of “Class Experience and Gathering for Exchanging Opinions to Acquire Problem-Finding Skills,” participants will have a question-making class experience and interaction with each other to acquire problem-finding skills in inquiry-based learning and comprehensive learning.

Isn’t it important for high school and university students to acquire the skills and mindset to design and practice learning spaces where learners can ask their own questions and delve into those questions while learning from others?
It is also important for us as teachers to be able to learn, understand, and use new ways of learning to identify issues.
Therefore, this time, we aim to cultivate the ability to find problems in inquiry-based learning and comprehensive learning while interacting with each other in a group work format.

We understand that this is a busy time, but we look forward to your active participation. I would also be grateful if you could reach out to the teachers you know.

【For High School Teachers】”The 4th Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting” November 7 (Thu) Call for Participants

The “Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting” is a place where people who transcend the boundaries of schools and their establishments to exchange ideas and concerns about school and homeroom management, class improvement, etc., and share their thoughts on solutions.
The 4th meeting will be held as follows.
In the fourth session, we will discuss and interact with students about the creation of lessons, the development of teaching materials, and their evaluation, centered on the theme of exploration of science and mathematics.
In the 2020 revision of the Course of Study, a new course of “Exploration of Science and Mathematics” was established with the aim of “fostering creative human resources who can bring about the creation of knowledge through academic research in the future.” In implementing this new course, some high schools are worried about issues such as the selection of research themes and the development of a teaching system, and there is a need to respond to them. Many high schools that struggle with the selection of research topics in mathematics, especially mathematics, may not be able to systematically organize why it is difficult. In addition, from the perspective of improving the quality of inquiry, there is a shortage of fellow faculty members who can study and evaluate the selection of research themes and consider them together. There may be a possibility that hints can be obtained from practical case reports on exploration themes that have already been implemented in advance, as well as from individual exploration tasks for exploration activities such as SSH.
In addition to sharing current issues, we would like to provide a place for high school and university teachers to collaborate to find hints for solving these problems and to think about the meaning of mathematical exploration.
　
We understand that this is a busy time, but we look forward to your active participation. I would also be grateful if you could reach out to the teachers you know.

【For high school and university students】2019 High School and University Collaboration Future Session < September 22 (Sun) Kyoto City venue > Call for Participants

It is said that with the advent of AI, there will be no jobs that exist in the future.
As society and work styles change, I would like to think about how the interests and concerns of high school and university students are connected to society and how they can be utilized in society, through dialogue with guests, and how they will work in the future.
Through interaction with diverse high school and university students, let’s create new ideas for work and careers that are not just “work ≈ business”.
In addition, no matter how society and occupations change, you may be able to realize the need for academic skills that cannot be measured by tests in order to live in the society of the future.

◆ Guest
Noriaki Imai (President, NPO D×P)

Born in Sapporo in 1985. Graduated from Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University. When he was in high school, he founded an NGO that provides medical assistance to Iraqi children. When he traveled to Iraq for his activities, he was detained as a hostage by local armed groups. After returning to Japan, he received a big bashing for his words of “self-responsibility”. In order to support students who, like him, have experienced rejection from adults, he established the NPO D×P in 2012 after working for a specialized trading company in Osaka. We will develop youth support for correspondence and part-time high school students, aiming to create a society in which each and every young person can have hope for their own future.
