| Keynote Speeches 10:10～11:40 |
What does the new course of study aim for? ~”Proactive, interactive, and deep learning” in acquisition, utilization, and inquiry~
|
| We will talk about the fact that “proactive, interactive, and deep learning” is not only for inquiry-based learning, and that by incorporating it in acquisition classes, it is possible to effectively improve the teaching and scientific skills necessary for entrance exams, using examples from OKJ (teaching and making students think) and learning method courses. | |
| 11:40~12:40 | Lunch break |
| Case Reports 12:40～13:30 |
What we have been working on to implement the “Basic Diagnosis of Learning for High School Students” ~From the perspective of ensuring the quality of high school education~
|
| For three years from the 28th academic year, our school has been designated by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology as a “Survey and Research Project for Learning Improvement for the Establishment of Basic Academic Skills of High School Students” and has been engaged in research practice. This research project is not limited to the implementation of a new “basic diagnosis of learning,” but has been conducting comprehensive research and practice on what kind of “academic ability” should be acquired in front of the students in front of them in high school, and how to send them out to higher education such as universities and society, in succession from elementary and junior high schools. In this forum, we will report on the school’s efforts so far and its future prospects. | |
| Panel & Floor Discussion 13:40～15:10 |
From the perspective of “the next high school course of study and the essence of the high school-university connection,” we will consider together what kind of skills should be cultivated now.
|
【Part 2】15:30~17:30 Breakout Session “Connecting Learning”
In order to realize the “connection of learning,” which is the purpose of the reform of the high school-university connection, it is important to have a “dialogue” between both high schools and universities.
When universities consider university education and the selection of university admissions, it is essential to consider how to evaluate the qualities and abilities of each young person, how to nurture them through their own unique education, and how to connect them to society. In order to achieve this, it is essential to grasp and understand what students have learned up to high school. In addition, it is important for high schools not only to respond to university entrance exams, but also to disseminate to universities what they have learned up to high school.
For this reason, we would like to use this year’s subcommittee as an opportunity for both high schools and universities to engage in dialogue and think together about the “connection of learning” based on the contents of Part 1 and practical examples from each school.
So far, four subcommittees have been set up: “Expression Techniques,” “Mathematics,” “English,” and “Science.” This year, the Kyoto Prefectural Board of Education, the Kyoto City Board of Education, the Kyoto Prefectural Federation of Private Junior and Senior High Schools, and the University Consortium Kyoto have examined the above, and in anticipation of the above objectives, as well as the “Common Test for University Admissions” from the 2020 academic year, it was decided to establish subcommittees on “Japanese language” and “Geography and Civics” in which written questions will be introduced into the test.
| Session 1 [Expression technique] |
What is the entrance examination that predicts future learning from PBL (problem-solving learning)?
|
| In the future of education, it is necessary to have the ability and practice to identify issues and questions for the future on their own. Two presenters who are engaged in inquiry-based learning in high school education will introduce an example, and in the end, the participants will discuss in group work what kind of entrance examination and education they want to implement. | |
| Session 2 [Mathematics] |
Smooth high school-university collaboration, exchanging efforts to nurture people who enjoy mathematics and continue to learn
|
| We will work to smoothly connect students from high school to university learning, and to exchange ideas and ingenuity to nurture people who continue to be interested in mathematics and continue learning. | |
| Subcommittee 3 [English] |
Aiming to cultivate the ability to think and judge for oneself and express opinions
|
| In this subcommittee, based on the performance issues that Kyoto Prefectural Sonobe High School is working on based on the theory of backward design and the practical report of performance evaluation based on the rubric, we will define how to develop the ability to think and judge for oneself and communicate one’s own thoughts in the new course of study, and exchange opinions with the participants. | |
| Session 4 [Science] |
What is a class that uses the “way of seeing and thinking” of science? ~Initiatives to Improve Classes~
|
| In order to “aim to further reliably cultivate the qualities and abilities that students will have to carve out for the future society” required by the new Course of Study, it is necessary to improve classes in high schools from the perspectives of “independent learning,” “interactive learning,” and “deep learning.” In this subcommittee, the presenter will propose what it means to use the “way of seeing and thinking” of the subject, which is the key to “deep learning,” and discuss it with the participants. | |
| Subcommittee 5 [Japanese] |
Envisioning a Unit on the Modern Language ~Possibility of developing classes that foster “higher academic ability” in anticipation of the new course of study~
|
| In the new Course of Study, the common compulsory subjects will be reorganized into “Modern Japanese Language” and “Language and Culture.” What kind of class improvements can be made from now on, keeping an eye on the philosophy of the new subject structure of the Japanese Language Department, the goals of each subject, and the qualities and abilities to be developed in each subject? We will explore the possibility of this by proposing a lesson plan for “modern Japanese language” that aims to foster “higher academic ability.” In addition, I would like to exchange opinions not only on measures for the “new test” but also on how to approach the reform of the high school-university connection. | |
| Session 6 【History/Civics】 |
Qualities and abilities that you want to acquire through classes and their development ~The connection between standardized tests and classes~
|
| Each teacher is making daily efforts to improve classes by realizing proactive, interactive, and deep learning by having students engage in classes while applying the social perspectives and ways of thinking indicated in the new Course of Study, and to develop the ability to think, make judgments, and express themselves. In the course of analyzing the questions that are more characteristic of the Common Test for University Admissions, we will report on examples of class practices aimed at fostering the qualities and abilities that high school students should acquire, and discuss specific ways to improve classes. | |
| Special Breakout Session (1) 【Recruitment Specialist Development】 |
The 2nd Admissions Specialist Capacity Development Training (Kyoto)
|
| Continuing from last year, this special subcommittee will give lectures on the knowledge and evaluation methods required for the development of highly specialized human resources in the field of high school-university connection. This program is intended for university and high school faculty and staff who are in charge of entrance examinations and career paths. This subcommittee will be jointly held with the Center for Educational Development at Kyushu University Next Generation University. Lecture 1 (Mr. Kimura’s Lecture Theme: Creating an Admission Questionnaire) Lecture 2 (Lecture Theme: Support for Students with Disabilities in University Entrance Examinations) |
|
| Special Breakout Session (2) 【High School and University Collaborative Career Education】 |
The Achievement of the Current Stage of High School and University Collaboration and the Future ~From the standpoint of high school and university~
|
| There are few examples of collaboration between high schools and universities, and they are still in the early stages of their efforts. Therefore, at present, it is necessary to accumulate case studies, confirm the achievements and challenges at the current stage from the verification, and envision the future of Mirai. Therefore, this year, we will first take up two examples of high school-university collaboration, and we will ask them to provide topics about the latest initiatives from the standpoint of high schools and universities. In the second half, I would like to have a three-dimensional discussion involving the participants. |
