PC Taker Training Course (Beginner) in Doshisha University March 8 (Thu)

With the cooperation of the Disability Student Support Office of the Doshisha University Student Support Center, the University Consortium Kyoto will hold a “PC (PC) Taker Training Course (Beginner Edition) in Doshisha University” for beginners with the aim of introducing them to “PC Take”.

In recent years, many students with disabilities have been enrolled, and various types of support are provided at the university. For students with hearing impairments, “note-taking” and “PC taking” are the mainstream of support, using notebooks and PCs to convey information in lectures. In particular, “PC Take” is characterized by the ability to convey more written information than handwriting when you become an advanced player.

This time, with the cooperation of the Doshisha University Disability Student Support Office, Mr. Mr./Ms., a student staff member who is actually involved in support as a PC taker, will conduct a course arranged by Doshisha University for beginners that is actually held for students at their own school.Students who are interested in PC taking or are currently working on PC take, as well as faculty and staff who are interested in the efforts of other universities, Mr./Ms. are welcome to participate。 (The PDF data of the flyer isHere）

Looking Back on the 2017 Kyoto Student Festival

Looking back on the 15th Kyoto Student Festival 2017

Outline of the event

■The 15th Kyoto Student Festival Theme


■ Activity Goals

This year marks the 15th anniversary of the Kyoto Student Festival, which began in 2003. This year, in order to create a festival that is on a par with Kyoto’s three major festivals, we have been working on activities that approach various cultures under the theme of “Creating a New Culture, ‘Kyoto Student Culture.'”

The 15th Kyoto Student Festival

For one year, the 15th Kyoto Student Festival has been working on the activities of “rediscovering Kyoto culture and international culture,” “fusing student character and culture,” and “widely disseminating the charm of Kyoto student culture.” In particular, this year’s event was an unprecedentedly rich year for the Kyoto Student Festival, as we were able to actively engage in activities in collaboration with the Kyoto Cultural Power Project, which is developed by Kyoto Prefecture and Kyoto City, where we learned about culture from cultural figures from Kyoto who are active in the world on the 15th of every month and arranged them from the perspective of students. In this way, we were able to create a unique student culture for the festival while increasing the number of partners, and as a result, we were able to get closer to the “Four Great Festivals of Kyoto,” which are on a par with the three major festivals in Kyoto.

Year-round activities other than the main festival

 

The Kyoto Student Festival aims to be a “festival” that is loved by the community and rooted in the community, and conducts daily exchange activities throughout the year together with the local community.
In 2017, in addition to our previous activities, we held a large-scale pre-event titled “Anniversari Festa” and took on various challenges to realize the purpose of the activities of the Kyoto Student Festival.

♦ Commemorative Projects

・June 4, 2017 [15th Anniversary Festa in. Ukyo feat. Subway Tozai Line 20th Anniversary]

 

 

・August 27, 2017 [15th Anniversary Festa in Kyoto Station Building & Porta]

♦ Main Visual Competition

Continuing from the 2016 academic year, we received a large number of applications from students from all over the country in the open call for the main visual Mr./Ms. The works selected for the Grand Prize were published in various public relations media throughout the year.

 

♦ Community Exchange Activities

  • Nighttime patrols to protect the safety of the community (twice a month) Kyoto Okazaki and Anning area
  • Cleanup activities aimed at beautifying the area (about once a month) Kyoto Okazaki, Anning, Umeya, Sanjo area, Kamogawa
  • Uchimizu activities to address local environmental problems (summer) Kyoto Okazaki, Anne, Fushimi area
  • Participation in local festivals (summer) Kyoto Okazaki, Anne, Umeya, Sanjo, Shichiku area


 

 

Student Support

 

Student Growth Programs

The University Consortium Kyoto supports students’ daily activities based on the principle of “creating their own initiative,” and hopes that “interaction” and “experience” with a wide variety of people in contact through independent activities will lead to new “awareness” and “learning” that will lead to student growth.
Specifically, we have adopted the PDCA cycle method, which treats student activities as a single project, and focuses on achieving results by working toward a single goal for each department. With the goal of smooth execution of activities, improvement of projects, and continuous development of businesses, we are working to create a system that promotes the growth of students by promoting the following support methods.

Implementation Report

 

This year marks the 15th anniversary of the Kyoto Student Festival. I have been working hard every day under the theme of “Creating a ‘Kyoto Student Culture'”. On Sunday, October 8th, students who are active in various fields such as fashion, music, and food gathered here in Kyoto to create a festival unique to them, and the “trajectory” of the Kyoto Student Festival over the past 15 years.
In addition to the overwhelming odori “Kyo Flame Sodefure!”, music and fashion contests, fair-day projects where you can enjoy Kyoto’s food culture, and children’s projects that even small children can enjoy.
The Foundation, which plays a role in the Kyoto Student Festival Organizing Committee, in addition to providing support for the festival, sees the year-long activities as opportunities for student growth and develops a support system throughout the year. In particular, this year was also the 15th anniversary of the event, and it was a pre-large-scale activity that involved many commemorative projects, including the anniversary festival. In the visitor survey, it was found that these year-round efforts did not directly attract customers. However, I feel that the one-year activity experience has led to the students’ confidence and learning. As we mark the end of this milestone and the 16th anniversary, we will continue to assess the capabilities and potential of the executive committee (especially the students who serve as executive staff) and develop a system to support the executive committee so that it can continue to be the 20th and 30th anniversaries. We would like to express our deepest gratitude to everyone who came to the event and to all those who supported us in various ways in holding this project.

【For high school and university students in Kyoto Prefecture】 Call for Participants “High School-University Collaboration Future Session”



Against the backdrop of the declining birthrate and aging population, the term “regional revitalization” is often used by many people, but for whom and for what purpose is regional development carried out in the first place? Is it because depopulation is progressing? Is it because the birthrate is declining and the population is aging in urban areas in the future?
Why don’t you invite young ~ mid-career members of society who are actively engaged in regional development with various approaches as role models, ask them about their thoughts on regional development, and think about “who and what is the purpose of community development” while exchanging thoughts from various perspectives with university students and high school students living in Kyoto City and the northern Kyoto Prefecture area, with whom you do not usually interact?

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.
