【For high school and university faculty and staff】”The 10th Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting” August 29 (Sun) Call for Participants

The “Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting” is a place where people who transcend the boundaries of schools and their founders can share their ideas and concerns about school and homeroom management, class improvement, etc., and interact with each other to solve problems.

The 10th meeting will be held as follows.

In recent years, terms and concepts such as active learning, proactive, interactive, and deep learning, inquiry, and synthesis have been presented in search of a better way of learning, and specific ways of doing so are being explored.
This time, as a basic part of learner-centered question-making, we will provide an opportunity for participants to create questions and engage in dialogue with each other about “better learning” through a question-making method experience workshop such as QFT (Question Formulation Technique).
We would like you to conduct a meta-analysis of the learning effects of each process and facilitation of QFT, and obtain a concrete image and action plan for using it in your school’s organizational development and classroom practice.

We look forward to your active participation.

Psychology of Consumer Behavior: Aiming for “Self-Understanding” to Protect Consumer Interests

A psychological understanding of consumer behavior is an important topic for companies, and methods based on psychological theories are often used in sales promotion activities. This has led to a number of cases in which consumers have a “misunderstanding” regarding the evaluation of products and services, resulting in disadvantages as a result. In this course, we will explain advertising strategies and in-store sales promotion activities based on the theories of psychology and behavioral economics. We want to contribute to consumer protection by promoting objective self-understanding of consumers.
