< ended> [For students and faculty members] Note-taker training course (beginner level) 《9/16》Call for participants


The University Consortium Kyoto will hold the “Note-Taker Training Course (Beginner Edition)” for students, faculty and staff as follows.
In recent years, many students with hearing impairments have been studying at universities, and there is a need for “information security” in lectures. A typical method of dealing with this is “note-taking,” in which lecture information is written down to students with hearing impairments. Currently, the number of supporters who take notes is insufficient at each university, and increasing the number of supporters is a very important issue for hearing-impaired students studying at universities.
Therefore, this time, in order to let more students, faculty and staff know about note-taking, we will hold a “Note-Taker Training Course” for those who are interested in note-taking (inexperienced) or those who have just started supporting (beginners). Why don’t you start note-taking as a step towards creating an environment where students support and learn from each other, and to guarantee the rights of everyone who studies at university?
