~From the standpoint of a professional who is involved with students~
Capacity: 160 people (priority capacity: 95 people)
In this subcommittee, we will report and examine support and strategies for promoting student engagement and independence at universities from three different professional perspectives: academic advising (learning and university adaptation), psychological counseling (psychology and development), and career support (career choice). In each of these initiatives, I would like to understand how the relationship between students and supporters is built, and the quantity and dynamics of involvement in each initiative from the perspective of student engagement. In the end, participants will share and examine the current situation, problems, and solutions of how to interact with students in classes, seminars, and various support situations that each participant encounters on a daily basis.

Educating Students through University Regional Cooperation
Capacity: 30 people (priority capacity: 18 people)
Collaborative activities between universities and local communities have benefits for both research, human exchange, and industrial revitalization, and when students participate in these activities, the community becomes a field where hands-on and practical learning can be conducted, and educational effects can be expected to be great. On the other hand, it seems that faculty members are faced with different challenges and burdens in collaborative activities than in regular lectures. In this subcommittee, we will introduce examples of collaborative activities with keywords such as collaboration in fields outside the teacher’s area of expertise, utilization of student shops, and collaboration with distant regions, and consider how to proceed with effective education based on the strengths and issues.

Special Needs School Teacher Training
Independent Learning and Regional Collaboration
Capacity: 30 people (priority capacity: 18 people)
In Japan, which aims to build an inclusive education system by promoting special needs education, there is an urgent need to train teachers with expertise in special needs education. In particular, it is important to have experience in the school setting in order to obtain a special needs school teaching license.
Therefore, I would like to think together with the participants about “opportunities for students to experience the actual teaching profession” and “independent learning” at universities with various backgrounds such as establishment, size, and history.

With the spread of smartphones and tablets and the enhancement of the Internet environment, education is also undergoing major changes.

In this subcommittee, we will invite teachers who are using LMS to introduce examples of their use, advantages and disadvantages, and points to note when using them. We would like to discuss how to further utilize LMS in improving education in the future.
