【Expansion of Participation Target】Announcement of the 2nd “Kyoto FDer Juku” in 2018

This training has been expanded to include non-member schools, and
the application period has been extended.

 

The 2nd “Kyoto FDer Juku” in 2018 was originally scheduled to be held on December 1, 2018, but due to various circumstances, it will be postponed to Saturday, March 9, 2019 as follows.
This will be held following the first seminar “Laying the Foundation for Promoting FD on Campus” (held on August 21, 2018), and we will also review the contents of the first session as shown in the outline of the training below. In the future, we would like to invite all the teachers who will be in charge of FD and those who are interested in this field to participate. We look forward to your participation.

Until 2017, the Kyoto FDer School, sponsored by the University Consortium Kyoto, was held as a medium-sized symposium held once a year, but from 2018, it was reorganized into a small-scale training program held multiple times a year with the aim of providing a program that will further develop faculty and staff who will become leaders in FD activities.

Overview

The purpose of this seminar is to clarify the direction of educational development in the university, faculty, or department to which the participants belong through a workshop centered on discussion.
As for the contents, I will summarize the contents of the first course (basic knowledge of FD) in the first part. Second, we will share the case studies of each university and relativize the situation of our own universities (faculties and departments). Third, we will look at the educational development issues of our own university (faculty and department) and consider where we should start. Through the above three points, we hope to provide an opportunity for each participant to gain an opportunity to promote further educational development in the field.

[Symposium (1)]

How to deal with the diversity of people who gather at the university

Capacity: 420 people (priority capacity: 250 people)

Universities are home to a diverse group of people. There are various races, ethnicities, nationalities, genders, sexualities, disability, generations, languages, religions, occupations, etc. It is important to recognize the diversity of people in universities in order to ensure that the rights of minorities are not infringed on in universities. At present, the world is in the process of rapid internationalization. In the future, university education and university management will require an open view of humanity and society, which is necessary for living in such an internationalized and diverse world.

“Relearning” for working adults and university education

Capacity: 300 people (priority capacity: 180 people)

In pursuing an educational system that supports lifelong learning, it is important to consider the ideal form of university education that is unique to the “100-year lifespan era.” Industry-academia collaboration to develop programs for working adults can bring about a transformation in university education and promote diversity in universities. In this symposium, we will discuss the future issues of university education from multiple perspectives, while questioning the significance of “relearning” for working adults in today’s society.

Support and Initiatives to Promote Student Engagement and Independence
~From the standpoint of a professional who is involved with students~

Capacity: 160 people (priority capacity: 95 people)

In this subcommittee, we will report and examine support and strategies for promoting student engagement and independence at universities from three different professional perspectives: academic advising (learning and university adaptation), psychological counseling (psychology and development), and career support (career choice). In each of these initiatives, I would like to understand how the relationship between students and supporters is built, and the quantity and dynamics of involvement in each initiative from the perspective of student engagement. In the end, participants will share and examine the current situation, problems, and solutions of how to interact with students in classes, seminars, and various support situations that each participant encounters on a daily basis.

Educating Students through University Regional Cooperation

Capacity: 30 people (priority capacity: 18 people)

Collaborative activities between universities and local communities have benefits for both research, human exchange, and industrial revitalization, and when students participate in these activities, the community becomes a field where hands-on and practical learning can be conducted, and educational effects can be expected to be great. On the other hand, it seems that faculty members are faced with different challenges and burdens in collaborative activities than in regular lectures. In this subcommittee, we will introduce examples of collaborative activities with keywords such as collaboration in fields outside the teacher’s area of expertise, utilization of student shops, and collaboration with distant regions, and consider how to proceed with effective education based on the strengths and issues.

Special Needs School Teacher Training
Independent Learning and Regional Collaboration

Capacity: 30 people (priority capacity: 18 people)

In Japan, which aims to build an inclusive education system by promoting special needs education, there is an urgent need to train teachers with expertise in special needs education. In particular, it is important to have experience in the school setting in order to obtain a special needs school teaching license.
Therefore, I would like to think together with the participants about “opportunities for students to experience the actual teaching profession” and “independent learning” at universities with various backgrounds such as establishment, size, and history.

Educational reform using LMS (Learning Management System)

Capacity: 30 people (priority capacity: 18 people)

With the spread of smartphones and tablets and the enhancement of the Internet environment, education is also undergoing major changes. The introduction of LMS (Learning Management System) has also created various benefits at universities, such as more efficient lectures, paperless operations, more efficient paperwork, and closer communication between students and faculty. In this subcommittee, we will invite teachers who are using LMS to introduce examples of their use, advantages and disadvantages, and points to note when using them. We would like to discuss how to further utilize LMS in improving education in the future.

【For faculty and staff】Announcement of the 5th “FD Joint Training Program (Basic)” to be held on Monday, February 4

As an organizational effort for faculty members to improve and enhance their teaching content and methods, the University Consortium Kyoto has been promoting FD activities in the Kyoto area together with member universities since 1995, shortly after its establishment.
The FD Joint Training Program is a training program that integrates and reorganizes the two programs that were implemented until the 2017 academic year: the “FD Joint Training Program for New Teachers” and the “University Education Power-up Seminar.”
It consists of two sections: the “Basics,” which aims to acquire basic knowledge in teaching, and the “Advanced,” which covers a wide range of themes aimed at improving the quality of education.
Please use it as a place for university faculty and staff to interact.

Lecturer: Ms. Kirie Mori (Associate Professor, Department of Childcare, Junior College, Heian Jogakuin University)
Summary:
Regardless of the field or field, from the perspective of independent learning, there is a need to shift from one-way knowledge transfer classes, which have been common in the past, to learner-centered classes. “Active learning” is considered to be one of them. In this training, we will take up active learning and learn about the background to its attention, its expected effects, and its problems. In addition, through workshops, we will create and peer-evaluate actual lesson design plans that incorporate active learning.

【For Faculty and Staff】Announcement of the 4th “FD Joint Training Program (Basic)” to be held on Monday, January 21

As an organizational effort for faculty members to improve and enhance their teaching content and methods, the University Consortium Kyoto has been promoting FD activities in the Kyoto area together with member universities since 1995, shortly after its establishment.
The FD Joint Training Program is a training program that integrates and reorganizes the two programs that were implemented until the 2017 academic year: the “FD Joint Training Program for New Teachers” and the “University Education Power-up Seminar.”
It consists of two sections: the “Basics,” which aims to acquire basic knowledge in teaching, and the “Advanced,” which covers a wide range of themes aimed at improving the quality of education.
Please use it as a place for university faculty and staff to interact.

Contents:

◆ Learning Support and Special Needs Workshops
Lecturer: Jun Murata (Associate Professor, Center for Student Support, Kyoto University)
Summary:
In recent years, the number of students has become more diverse, and there is a wide demand for study support for various students. In particular, with regard to support for students with disabilities, the enactment of the Act on the Elimination of Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities has made it a legal obligation or obligation for each university to “prohibit unfair discriminatory treatment” and “provide reasonable accommodation” to students with disabilities. In this training, you will first learn basic knowledge about “disability” and then give an overview of the current situation of support for students with disabilities at universities. In addition, I would like to think about support for students with developmental disabilities, which has been increasing in recent years, through workshops.
