The “Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting” transcends the boundaries of schools and establishments, and exchanges ideas and concerns regarding school/homeroom management, class improvement, etc., and shares thoughts on solutions. It started in 2018 as a place for sharing.
The 3rd edition will be held as follows. Each session is a one-shot event, so you can participate regardless of whether you have participated in the past.
In the third installment, we will focus on the “University Entrance Examination Reform” (entrance examination reform related to the selection of students admitted in 2021), which many high school teachers are currently interested in. Using the theme of “Notice regarding the review of the FY2021 University Entrance Selection Implementation Guidelines”, we will discuss the progress of each school’s efforts toward introducing a common university entrance test and changing the format of the survey form. In addition, university faculty members will also be joining us to exchange information and interact.
We understand that this is a busy time, but we look forward to your active participation. We would also be happy to hear from any teachers you know.
