The 12th High School-University Collaborative Education Forum will be held on Friday, December 5th!

The Kyoto High School-University Collaborative Research Council is holding a forum for the purpose of “sharing information on domestic trends and disseminating information on initiatives in Kyoto” on the issue of collaboration and connected education between high schools and universities.

This year’s 12th Collaborative High School and University Education Forum will be held under the theme of “Connecting High School and University and Forming Academic Ability: Thinking about the Achievement Test (tentative name).” We look forward to your participation.

Outline of the event

The 12th High School-University Collaborative Education Forum

banner3University entrance examinations are deeply linked to the school system and social structure of the country. In Japan, the premise of the academic achievement test is that a nationwide common educational curriculum has been established, and it is obligatory that the exam questions be first published and that they be published after the fact. However, these are also things that are unique to Japan from a global perspective. In the current reform of entrance examinations, the implementation of multiple common examinations, graded evaluations, the introduction of IRT (Item Response Theory), and the use of computers are also on the table for discussion. I would like to consider the realistic possibility of a “achievement test (tentative name)” including such issues.

Kyoto University “Learning” Forum 2014 will be held!

In fiscal 2014, we will hold the “Kyoto University Learning Forum” again. Universities in Kyoto gather in one place to hold mock lectures and hands-on courses in various fields. Not only high school students, but also parents can take the course freely. Please take this opportunity to experience university classes that are a little different from high school on the university campus!

For those who want to know more about universities, there are booths and resource corners for each university, as well as talk plans by university students, entrance examination preparation courses, and courses for parents. We look forward to seeing your high school students and parents from TakuMr./Ms.!
