【Expansion of Participation Target】Announcement of the 2nd “Kyoto FDer Juku” in 2018

This training has been expanded to include non-member schools, and
the application period has been extended.

 

The 2nd “Kyoto FDer Juku” in 2018 was originally scheduled to be held on December 1, 2018, but due to various circumstances, it will be postponed to Saturday, March 9, 2019 as follows.
This will be held following the first seminar “Laying the Foundation for Promoting FD on Campus” (held on August 21, 2018), and we will also review the contents of the first session as shown in the outline of the training below. In the future, we would like to invite all the teachers who will be in charge of FD and those who are interested in this field to participate. We look forward to your participation.

Until 2017, the Kyoto FDer School, sponsored by the University Consortium Kyoto, was held as a medium-sized symposium held once a year, but from 2018, it was reorganized into a small-scale training program held multiple times a year with the aim of providing a program that will further develop faculty and staff who will become leaders in FD activities.

theme “Exploring the direction of educational development in one’s own university, faculties, and departments”
Overview

The purpose of this seminar is to clarify the direction of educational development in the university, faculty, or department to which the participants belong through a workshop centered on discussion.
As for the contents, I will summarize the contents of the first course (basic knowledge of FD) in the first part. Second, we will share the case studies of each university and relativize the situation of our own universities (faculties and departments). Third, we will look at the educational development issues of our own university (faculty and department) and consider where we should start. Through the above three points, we hope to provide an opportunity for each participant to gain an opportunity to promote further educational development in the field.

≪Information on participating in the training≫
In order to make this seminar more fulfilling, we will conduct a pre-attendance questionnaire. The results of the responses may be statistically processed so that individual names are not known, and then used within the scope of the training. Thank you for your understanding.
