[For high school teachers] Recruiting participants for the 4th Kyoto High School Teachers’ Exchange Meeting on Thursday, November 7th

　The “Kyoto High School Teachers Exchange Meeting” is a place to exchange ideas and concerns about the management of schools and homerooms, improvement of classes, etc., and to share thoughts toward solutions, regardless of school or establishment.
　This time, we will hold the 4th as follows.
　In the 4th session, we will discuss and interact with each other about the creation of lessons, the development of teaching materials, and their evaluation, etc., centering on the research theme of science and mathematics research.
　In the 2020 revision of the Course of Study, a new subject of “Exploration of Science and Mathematics” was established with the aim of “cultivating highly creative human resources who can bring about the creation of knowledge through academic research in the future.” In implementing this new subject, some high school students have voiced concerns about issues such as the selection of research themes and the development of a teaching system, and it is necessary to address these issues. Many high schools who struggle with mathematics, especially mathematics research themes, may not be able to systematically organize why it is so difficult. In addition, from the perspective of improving the quality of research, there is also a shortage of faculty colleagues who can research and evaluate the selection of research themes themselves and consider them together. It may be possible to get hints from the practice case reports of research themes that have already been implemented and the individual research tasks of research activities such as SSH.
　At this faculty exchange meeting, we would like to share the current issues and collaborate with high school and university teachers to find hints for solving these issues and think about the meaning of mathematics research.
　
　We understand that you are busy, but we look forward to your active participation. Also, I would appreciate it if you could talk to the teachers you know.

“2019 Kotaisha Collaboration Future Session” was held!

　The 2019 Kotaisha Collaboration Future Session was held at Campus Plaza Kyoto on September 22nd (Sunday) and at Fukuchiyama Public University on September 29th (Sunday).
This Future Session, which is in its fourth year this year, is a career education program that aims to encourage the career development of high school and university students, and involves dialogue and exchange across generations and schools, such as high school students, university students, and working adults.
　This year, the event was held at two venues, one in Kyoto and the other in northern Kyoto, with 26 high school and university students attending the venue in Kyoto and 54 at the venue in northern Kyoto.

　The invited guests this time were Mr. Noriaki Imai, Chairman of the certified NPO D is. At each venue, the two of them looked back on their high school and university days under the theme of “What kind of work will society need in the future?” and talked about changes in thinking, realizations, and triggers up to the present day. Thank you for your talk.
　After listening to the guest lecture for an hour, each group shared their impressions and formulated questions for the guests. Both guests carefully answered each question from each group.
　Afterwards, we held a World Café as part of our group work, and deepened our thinking about work by listening to opinions from other groups regarding the theme of this time, “What kind of work will society need in the future?”

　Through interacting with students and university students from other schools that they would not normally meet, the participants were able to experience a variety of opinions and spend a meaningful time full of insights and learning.

[For high school and university students] 2019 High School and Taisha Collaboration Future Session

It is said that with the arrival of AI, existing jobs will disappear in the future.
As society and work styles change, we would like to think about the future of work styles through dialogue with guests and how the interests of high school and university students are connected to society and how they can be utilized for society.
Through interaction with a diverse range of high school and university students, let’s create new ideas for work and career that go beyond just “work = business.”
You may also realize that no matter how society or occupation changes, in order to survive in the future society, you will need academic ability that cannot be measured by tests.
