Outline of the event
The 19th Forum on Collaborative Education between High School and University
* About the system error that occurred on Friday, October 1
In order to cultivate the qualities and abilities required in this rapidly changing era, reforms are being carried out in the trinity of high school education, university education, and university entrance examination. The Common Test for University Entrance Examinations has become even more demanding on thinking and judgment, and the new course of study for high schools emphasizes inquiry-based learning.
While inquiry-based learning is being undertaken in collaboration with high schools, universities, and local communities, are we not confined only to the time and the way courses are conducted with the word “inquiry”? What does exploratory learning in high school bring to each student and how does it lead to research at university?
In this forum, we would like to explore the possibilities of exploratory learning by allowing students, students, faculty and staff to think together in the same place regardless of their positions and how to connect them from high school to university.
* In response to the recent spread of the new coronavirus infection, the Kyoto High School University Collaborative Research Council is promoting efforts to prevent the spread of infection. In the future, from the perspective of preventing the spread of infection, we may take measures to change or cancel the implementation of this forum. In that case, we will inform you on this website. Thank you for your understanding.

| Keynote Speeches 12:10～12:45 |
How does inquiry-based learning affect university learning?
|
|
| In a social situation that is called an unpredictable era, society is looking for school education to cultivate the ability to identify and solve problems and the agency to work toward them. At universities, there are increasing opportunities for exploratory learning such as graduation research and thesis, PBL (Problem/Project Based Learning), and service learning. In this context, how are changes in high school education, especially the exploratory learning experience, affecting learning at university? I would like to explore this theme with data. | ||
| 12:45~12:50 | Break | |
| Case Report (1)* 12:50～13:25 |
The challenge of “academic ability to nurture the community” from Murataka ~Young people create communities~
|
|
| At our school, the main aim is to develop “academic ability to nurture the community,” which means “academic ability to live and work in daily life” and “academic ability with independence and a desire to live.” Through the process of practically solving regional issues in collaboration with governments, universities, local educational institutions, and local residents (the process of community development), we aim to cultivate “academic ability to nurture the community,” embody the qualities and abilities to collaborate and participate in regional revitalization, and to develop future-oriented individuals who love “the region” and acquire the “academic ability to nurture the community.” | ||
| 13:25~13:30 | Break | |
| Case Report (2)* 13:30～14:05 |
REALIZE！ Where is the current state of the quest that started from scratch? ~Giving shape to students’ “what they want to do”~
|
|
| With the aim of becoming aware of social issues and realizing independent career development, our school introduced inquiry activities for all students in regular courses from the 2018 academic year. The project team formed before the introduction of the system visited other schools and researched teaching materials, and through training sessions, all faculty and staff members were on the same page. In 2015, he founded the Field Exploration Club (now the Department) and has created a role model for regional exploration. The results of this research are returned to the time of comprehensive inquiry, and we aim to pursue exploration with a rich regional flavor while emphasizing interests. | ||

From Exploratory Learning to Research
Mr |
|
*Case reports include breakout sessions.
【Part 2】15:30~17:30 Breakout Session
*The first session [Japanese language] and the second session [Geography and Civics] will be held from 15:30~17:00.
| Session 1 [Japanese] |
Inquiry-based learning in the Japanese language department ~With the keywords “real world” and “language and culture”~
|
|
| In order to achieve the goals of the Japanese Language Department in the new Course of Study, such as the ability to develop the “national language necessary for lifelong social life” and the development of qualities and abilities that enable students to become “bearers of the language and culture of Japan,” we will consider the future of learning based on the class practice reports from high schools, and exchange ideas on how to connect this to learning at university. | ||
| Session 2 【History/Civics】 |
Let’s create a world map of “knowledge” ~How to connect high school and university in creating classes that deepen the spirit of inquiry~
|
|
| As part of Kyoto University of Education’s “Global Studies,” we report on the practice of high school ethics classes created from a new perspective by high school and university faculty members in collaboration with each other, centered on the exploration of values in the age of globalization. Through these reports, we will consider the ideal form of classroom practice and inquiry activities that lead from high school exploration to university research. * Mr. Jindai’s report will be distributed by recording. |
||
| Subcommittee 3 [Science] |
Creating an environment for inquiry-based learning
|
|
| How can we nurture and extend interest in the field of science through inquiry-based learning for female students? Notre Dame Jogakuin Junior and Senior High School will report on the practice of the inquiry course, and from the university’s point of view, Doshisha University and Kyoto Koka Women’s University, which are participating in the Japan Science and Technology Agency’s “Science Career Selection Support Program for Female Junior and Senior High School Students,” will report on the project. | ||
| Special Breakout Session (1) 【High School and University Connection】 |
Exploration and Admissions ~How to position inquiry activities up to high school in entrance examinations and connection education~ (Co-organizer: Association of University Admissions Professionals)
|
|
| We will report on how the experience of inquiry activities up to high school leads to the impact of high school students on their university entrance examination activities, their treatment in entrance examinations, and their learning status after enrollment. Next, we will discuss with the participants the impact of inquiry activities in high school on examination behavior and the entrance examination system, and share future possibilities and challenges. *This subcommittee is only for high school and university faculty and staff. |

Saturday, December 18, 2021 14:00~16:00 *Free of charge
| Special Breakout Session (2) 【Collaboration between high school and university】 Career Education] |
Report on the results of the Future Session ~Looking back on the second stage by the Executive Committee~
|
|
| Amid major changes in values and social conditions due to the impact of the new coronavirus infection, the diversity of ways of learning, working, and living is expanding. Based on this, we planned and created this year’s high school-university collaboration future session in the form of an executive committee composed of high school and university students, as we did last year. This subcommittee will report on the results of the second stage of the Executive Committee. * The “Future Session” is a career education program for high school-university collaboration that aims to develop the careers of high school and university students, and to engage in future-oriented dialogue and exchange across generations and schools. |

Implementation Report
▶ The 19th High School-University Collaborative Education Forum Report [Click here for details]
This year’s event was held under the overall theme of “From Inquiry-based Learning to Research: How to Become a Jumping Board for Educational Reform.” Continuing from last year, from the viewpoint of preventing the spread of new coronavirus infections, the event was held online using Zoom, but 144 people from all over the country participated.
In the keynote speech of the first part, Professor Takeshi Yamada, Professor of the Department of Education Promotion, Kansai University, gave a lecture titled “How does inquiry-based learning affect learning at university?” Next, as case reports, Mr. Atsushi Okada, Vice Principal of Hyogo Prefectural Muraoka High School, and Mr. Satoshi Tatano, a teacher at Kyoto Prefectural Miyazu High School and Kyoto Prefectural Miyazu Amabashi High School, reported on their own cases based on their own cases.
In the panel discussion, under the theme of “From Exploratory Learning to Research,” the speakers answered questions from the participants in response to the keynote speeches and case reports, and discussed the ideas of both high schools and universities.
In the second part of the subcommittee, in addition to the three subjects of “Japanese language,” “history and civics,” and “science,” four subcommittees were held this time, including “high school-university connection” as a special subcommittee (1), and examples of initiatives and reports were shared for each theme.
In addition, on Saturday, December 18, “High School-University Collaborative Career Education” was held as a special subcommittee (2), and it was held as a report meeting and review meeting for the results of the Executive Committee of the Council’s career education program “Future Session for High School-University Collaboration.” Participants were able to get a sense of the growth and learning of students through group work and question-and-answer sessions by high school and university executive committee members, and it was also an opportunity to think about new perspectives for high school-university connections.
