【For High School Teachers】”The 7th Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting” October 10 (Sat) Call for Participants

The “Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting” is a place where people who transcend the boundaries of schools and their founders can share their ideas and concerns about school and homeroom management, class improvement, etc., and interact with each other to solve problems.

We are pleased to announce that the 7th meeting will be held as follows.

Isn’t it important for students and students to acquire the skills and mindset to practice learning to ask their own questions and delve into those questions while learning from others? I think it is important for us as teachers to be able to learn, understand, and use new ways of learning to identify issues.
Therefore, this time, through hands-on workshops, lectures, and various types of work in the form of individual and group work, we will delve into how to cultivate the ability to identify issues in each subject and in inquiry/comprehensive learning.

We look forward to your active participation.
