“Follow-up Survey of New Teacher Training Participants”

The University Consortium Kyoto is striving to enhance a variety of FD projects, including the provision of systematic FD training programs that are difficult to implement at a single university or junior college.
Recently, we conducted a follow-up survey to verify the effectiveness of the FD joint training for new faculty members who have completed the FD joint training that the Foundation has been conducting since 2010, to confirm what kind of training and support are currently needed, to measure the effectiveness of the FD joint training for new teachers, to improve the program, and to consider the planning of successor training.
We would like to report the results as follows.

Survey on Training Needs for Part-time Teachers

The University Consortium Kyoto is striving to enhance a variety of FD projects, including the provision of systematic FD training programs that are difficult to implement at a single university or junior college.
From the viewpoint of ensuring the quality of education in the Kyoto region and supporting the careers of young researchers, we recently conducted a survey of member schools and part-time faculty members with the aim of ascertaining the training needs of part-time teachers who do not have a full-time school.
We would like to report the results as follows.

The 18th Kyoto International Student Film Festival Competition Submission Begins!

Business Overview

This film festival is the largest international student film festival in Japan, planned and operated mainly by university students in the Kansai region, mainly in Kyoto. We aim to discover future filmmakers by creating opportunities for students to gather, judge, and screen independent films produced by students from all over the world.
Historically, Kyoto is a “movie town” that still inherits the cultural heritage of the early days of Japan cinema, and it is also a “university town and student town” where students account for 10% of the population of Kyoto City.
This festival aims to revitalize Kyoto by creating a place for international exchange and mutual understanding by discovering and introducing talents who can add new fields to cinema from among the many possibilities of films from around the world.

Modern society expects women to play an active role, and the government is implementing various initiatives with the aim of “creating a society in which all women shine.” As an approach to high school and female university students who will be the leaders of the future and who are making career choices in the future, the first question should be “What kind of jobs are there in society?” and “Is it really possible to balance work and family?” In order to face and respond to such simple questions and anxieties, the Kyoto High School-University Collaborative Research Council and the High School Consortium Kyoto invite women from various industries who are actually active in society to listen to their diverse career experiences, talk together, and hold a project in which Mr./Ms., a female high school student and female university student, thinks about her future.

Lecture Outline

theme What is Curriculum Design?
~Aiming for a Consistent Curriculum Design~
Overview In recent years, Japan’s higher education has been required to shift to an organizational and systematic curriculum based on diploma policies and curriculum policies.
Although each university has been tackling various issues through educational reform and FD, it is said that society is still dissatisfied with the current progress in improving undergraduate education.
The most important aspect of undergraduate education as a program is policy-based curriculum design.
How can we shift from the traditional teacher-centered curriculum to an organized and systematic curriculum?
Also, how should specialized education and so-called general education be positioned in the curriculum offered at each university, and how should they be related?
Based on this awareness of the problem, we will share the process and content of the discussion during this period from the precedents of universities that have specifically worked on curriculum reform, and we will provide an opportunity for participants to obtain hints on the optimal decision-making process and problem solving at their home universities.
