Symposium 1
February 19 (Sat) 9:30~12:00 ( Exchange Party 12:00~12:30 )
Re-questioning
the "place" of university education: Toward the post-coronavirus era
Capacity: 1,000 (Priority capacity of member schools: 600)
Due to the spread of the new coronavirus, the shift to ICT in society is progressing rapidly. In university education, we have accumulated know-how such as synchronous and asynchronous remote classes and hybrid classes that combine face-to-face and remote classes. Even after the end of the new coronavirus, these class formats can be used. Now that part of the identity of university education, which is to "come to a university campus and receive face-to-face classes by faculty members who are experts in the field," has been lost, and the "places" of university education are diversifying, it may be necessary to reconsider the state of university education. Therefore, in this symposium, we would like to think about post-corona university education by listening to the topics of teachers who are developing university-wide educational activities in three types of educational venues: "face-to-face + remote hybrid classes", "synchronous / asynchronous remote classes", and "off-campus".

The Future of Subjects, Liberal Arts, and Teachers ~ Prospects for the Future
of University Education After the Corona Disaster
Capacity: 1,000 (Priority capacity of member schools: 600)
"Creating something that doesn't exist" and "making the most of what is" are not contradictory values. Under such circumstances, a variety of practices are being developed in university education, "making use of what is there and creating what is not." For example, from credit transfer to the establishment of collaborative institutions, from general education to liberal arts, and from FD to pre-FD, these movements are positioned as re-questioning the existence and role of universities, regional cooperation, and faculty members. In this symposium, three students will present their presentations and engage in dialogue with participants to envision and co-create the future of university education.
