|
| “Okinawa / Yamato” / Kenta Higa / Wako University /Japan |
 |
People born and raised in Okinawa refer to “Japan outside of Okinawa” as “inland, Yamato, and mainland” and the people who live there as “Naicha, Yamatunchu, and people from the mainland.” This documentary explores the mental line between “Okinawa” and “Yamato” that can be seen from such a single name. Born in Okinawa but living in the interior, Higa’s camera moves back and forth between “the individual and society,” “the parties and the non-parties,” and the “opposing ideologies” with “fiction and reality,” and the “line” is brought to light. (98min) |

The role of biodiversity conservation in Kyoto’s unique attractions, such as its traditions, culture, and tourism, and measures needed in the future
| Research Themes |
Knowledge of the symbiosis of the natural environment in the lives of citizens and evaluation of the actual conditions of familiar biota |
| Principal Investigator |
Professor, Graduate School of Global Environmental Studies, Kyoto University |
| Research Summary |
The knowledge of coexistence with the natural environment and the actual state of the biota around us, which have been nurtured in the lives of citizens, are presented through household surveys in the Shirakawa River system, field surveys at the Shirakawa Children’s Festival, questionnaires to temples and shrines on wildlife trends, field surveys of forest vegetation damage (mainly caused by deer), and surveys of townhouse gardens. Based on this, we proposed the creation of a support framework between departments in charge of the government and in cooperation with citizens so that efforts to coexist with the natural environment that take root in the lives of citizens will lead to the creation of an attractive city that is unique to Kyoto. |

Empirical Research on the Development and Dissemination of Social Business Using Student Participatory Business Competitions |
| Principal Investigator |
Associate Professor, Faculty of Business Administration, Kyoto Sangyo University, Mr. Etsuga Omuro |
| Research Summary |
With the cooperation of companies that manufacture and sell social products, a competition was held over a period of about 100 days in which students made proposals for their development and dissemination, and the changes in students’ own perceptions and behaviors before and after participation were investigated. Based on the results, we showed that being involved in social business may lead to the development of socially oriented consumers, and proposed the enhancement of socially oriented consumer education for younger people (high school students, etc.) and the creation of an environment that makes it easy to start a business. |

Urban planning issues for narrow streets adjacent to main roads

| Principal Investigator |
Graduate School of Engineering, Kyoto University Researcher Sachiko Morishige |
| Research Summary |
Through a survey of the situation of narrow streets in the so-called “Tanogata district,” we grasped its characteristics and issues. We proposed measures such as urban planning regulations for high-rise buildings facing narrow streets, clarification of the handling of cul-de-sacs that are “non-roads” under the Building Standards Act, guidance for the installation of emergency evacuation exits, and creation of rules to adjust the relationship between narrow streets and high-rise buildings. |

The Kyoto High School-University Collaborative Research Council is holding a forum for the purpose of “sharing information on domestic trends and disseminating information on initiatives in Kyoto” on the issue of collaboration and connected education between high schools and universities.
This year’s 12th Collaborative High School and University Education Forum will be held under the theme of “Connecting High School and University and Forming Academic Ability: Thinking about the Achievement Test (tentative name).” We look forward to your participation.
Outline of the event
The 12th High School-University Collaborative Education Forum
University entrance examinations are deeply linked to the school system and social structure of the country. In Japan, the premise of the academic achievement test is that a nationwide common educational curriculum has been established, and it is obligatory that the exam questions be first published and that they be published after the fact. However, these are also things that are unique to Japan from a global perspective. In the current reform of entrance examinations, the implementation of multiple common examinations, graded evaluations, the introduction of IRT (Item Response Theory), and the use of computers are also on the table for discussion. I would like to consider the realistic possibility of a “achievement test (tentative name)” including such issues.
