Keynote Speech 9:30~10:25	Theme: New career guidance created through high school-university collaboration ~To cultivate the ability to design the future by oneself~ Speaker: Takayuki Shiose (Associate Professor, Kyoto University)
	The most important thing for students is to envision their own future. Only by drawing oneself, not anyone else, can one take responsibility for one's own future. In order to cultivate the skills necessary for this purpose, it is necessary for educational institutions to work closely together to establish a comprehensive career guidance system and support career design. Rather than the ability to choose an answer from options, the ability to create one's own options is required. More than the ability to solve problems well, the ability to create problems well is required more than anything else. However, under the current examination system, there is a limit to how much these skills can be cultivated from subject guidance alone. For better or worse, students are surrounded by options and information. A huge number of options are prepared before you worry, and each option is accompanied by the evaluation of others. The adults around them also face time constraints and demand hasty choices. Even that choice is substituted for the student. Job hunting, which greatly affects one's future, naturally requires a completely different decision from choosing an answer from the options in the National Center Examination. However, as if this were the first opportunity, there are not a few university and graduate students who go back and forth in front of a huge amount of information. What is necessary for career education is not only work experience and detailed information, but also the ability to make decisions on their own. It is the ability to read for oneself what is an option and what is information. What should be closely linked between high schools and universities is a new career guidance system that cultivates the ability to envision this future.
