“2018 High School and University Collaboration Future Session” was held!

On Saturday, November 3, 2018, the 2018 High School and University Collaboration Future Session was held at Campus Plaza Kyoto.

This Future Session is held as a joint high school-university career education program with the aim of promoting career development for high school and university students, and this is the third time this year.
This year, a total of 41 high school and university students participated.

This time, we invited two role models: Mr. Ryo Tsukamoto, CEO of GL Academia Co., Ltd., and Ms. Rika Yajima, Representative Director of Wareru Co., Ltd.
Under the theme of “How to connect work and learning?”, he talked about “what was important to me when thinking about my career path after graduating from high school and university” and “what only humans can do with the rapid development of AI technology”.

 

 

In the group work after the role model talk, each group exchanged opinions and thought about questions for the role model.
The questions asked, “Are there any gaps or discrepancies between your dreams when you were a student and your dreams now?” and “How did you overcome your parents’ opposition?” “Would it be better to overcome what you can’t do now, or would you rather develop what you can do?” The participants actively raised their hands, and the two role models answered them carefully one by one, saying, “All the questions I want to answer.”

The Q&A session and the overall summary were displayed in text on the screen, and all participants were able to share information and deepen their understanding.
Participants asked questions such as “What is learning?” and “What is work?” “What is the relationship between learning and working?” was summarized in a worksheet, discussed and presented in groups.

By exchanging opinions across generations of high school and university students, it was a good opportunity to be stimulated about future learning and career choices, such as “learning and work are connected,” “knowing yourself first,” and “thinking about what I should do in the future to create my own axis and trunk.” In addition, I was able to interact with students from other schools and universities that I do not usually meet face-to-face.

 

【For high school and university students】November 3 (holiday) Call for Participants for the 2018 High School-University Collaboration Future Session “How to Connect Work and Learning?”


For Mr./Ms., are “working” and “learning” completely different? Without a clear vision of your future vision and purpose, you may be choosing a career path such as getting a job at a well-known company, and for that reason, applying to a famous university with a higher deviation value.
In this Future Session, we would like to invite people who have thought about their own future and carved out their own path as role models, and we would like to think together across generations under the theme of “How to connect work and learning?”
We hope that by coming into contact with diverse values, you will broaden your horizons and make use of them in your future studies and career choices.
In addition, in anticipation of future technological innovation, we will hold a meeting in Kyoto City and the northern part of the prefecture on the same day, and share role model talks and summary time online.

Rika Yajima (Representative Director, Waeru Co., Ltd.)
Born in Tokyo in 1988.
Graduated from Keio University Faculty of Law and Keio University Graduate School of Media and Governance.
Fascinated by artisans and tradition, he began traveling around the country at the age of 19, and began working to disseminate information on Japan’s traditional culture and industry during his university years. With the desire to “pass on the traditions of Japan to the next generation,” he founded Waeru Co., Ltd. in March 2011, when he was in his fourth year of university. In March 2012, in order to create an environment where people can come into contact with the handiwork of craftsmen from an early age, he launched “AERU”, a traditional brand for 0 to 6 year olds, and created original products together with craftsmen from all over Japan. Starting with an online directly managed store, in 2014 he opened a directly managed store “AERU MEGURO” in Tokyo, and in 2015 he opened a directly managed store in Kyoto “AERU GOJO”. We are developing various businesses such as “aeru room” and “aeru oatsurae” to connect to the next generation while utilizing the traditions of Japan and the wisdom of our ancestors in our daily lives.

Graduated from the Faculty of Economics at Doshisha University from a problem child with a deviation value of 30 and on the verge of dropping out. After that, he studied psychology at Cambridge, and after returning to Japan, he established an English conversation school, GL Academia, in Kyoto. His teaching methods, which make use of his knowledge of psychology and his own learning experience, have attracted attention, and he has been inundated with requests for guidance from Japan and abroad. More than 100 Japan students, from working adults, have been admitted to top universities and graduate schools overseas, including the University of Cambridge and the University of London.
He is the author of 11 books, including “Life-Changing Studies for Cambridge Graduates Even with a Deviation of 30,” “The Habits of ‘People Who Do It Quickly’ and ‘Those Who Can’t’,” and “Efforts Continue on Their Own.”

Compared to a few decades ago, we are gradually changing to a society where women and men work together, but it is still not enough, and there are many issues to be addressed.
For this reason, it is necessary for men and women to have opportunities to think about their work and way of life from a long-term perspective, recognizing that there are turning points unique to women, such as childbirth, and the social conditions surrounding women, as well as recognizing the need for men’s work style reforms.
This time, we hope that you will be able to make choices that look as far ahead as possible when choosing a career path and job hunting, while touching on the working styles of people who are actively active in various fields and the ideas of student Mr./Ms. and student Mr./Ms. from other universities and schools that you do not usually interact with.
