Overview of the business
Depending on the implementation theme, it will be [Basic Edition] or [Advanced Edition].
As an organizational effort for faculty members to improve and improve the content and methods of classes, 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 following two programs that were implemented until fiscal 2017.
It consists of a "Basic Edition" that aims to acquire basic knowledge in teaching classes, and an "Advanced Edition" that deals with a wide range of themes aimed at improving the quality of education.
◆Joint FD Training Program for New Teachers: A training program that complies with the "Framework of Standards for New Teachers" proposed by the National Institute for Educational Policy Research, with the aim of acquiring the knowledge and skills necessary for university teachers.
◆University Education Power-up Seminar: A workshop-style study session that deals with themes that are useful for the education (educational support) activities of a wide range of individual university faculty and staff.

| Outline | "About the University Community" University Consortium Kyoto Secretariat (Deputy Secretary General: Masayoshi Yoshisada Shoru) There are various possible FD initiatives. In addition to those of each university alone, inter-university collaboration, joint initiatives, and information exchange with other universities can be expected to have a significant effect. In this training, we will consider the ideal university community as a place of collaboration from the perspective of FD by introducing the outline of the University Consortium Kyoto and its projects, the founding spirit of each participant's university, the faculty structure, and the characteristics of the curriculum. |
| "Basic Knowledge of FD – Toward Sustainable Skill Development" Lecturer: Kenji Mino (Professor, Faculty of Contemporary Social Studies, Kyoto Sangyo University) The environment surrounding FD is also changing significantly. Beyond mere educational improvements and ingenuity, various ways of thinking and initiatives related to the state of higher education itself are required. In this training, students will deepen their understanding of FD and deepen their mutual understanding among those involved in university education by reconsidering the current environment surrounding universities, from basic knowledge about FD and higher education to educational administration. |
|
| "Basic Knowledge and Workshop for Lesson Design" Lecturer: Hitomi Asada (Associate Professor, Department of Early Childhood Education, Huading Junior College) Lecturer: Nobuteru Okamoto (Professor, Faculty of Foreign Studies, Kyoto University of Foreign Studies) The syllabus plays an important role in conducting well-planned lessons. The items and contents that should be included in the syllabus are also diversifying. In this training, we will focus on the syllabus and consider the basic concepts and points to note regarding lesson design. In addition, through workshops, students will learn specifically about the consistency of higher-level educational policies and goals, such as curriculum policy (CP) and diploma policy (DP), with individual subjects and classes. |

| Outline | "Lesson Design and Practical Lesson Workshop" Lecturer: Kazuharu Abe (Professor, Faculty of Career Development, Kyoto Koka Women's University) Each actual lesson can be said to be a breakdown of the learning goals and learning content described in the syllabus and embodying them. Each lesson must be based on a clear design. In this training, students will learn the basic concepts and examples of design methods for class design based on these ideas. In addition, participants will conduct mutual evaluation of specific lesson design methods and their practices through workshops. |

Grading should be rigorous, not ambiguous, and accountable. In this training, students will learn the basic concept of grading, points to keep in mind when creating a rubric, specific examples, etc. In addition, we will work on specific grading standards and issues through workshops, and exchange opinions among participants. |

| Outline | "Learning Support and Special Support Workshop" Lecturer: Jun Murata (Associate Professor, Student Support Center, Kyoto University) 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, with the enactment of the Act on the Elimination of Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities, each university has become legally obligated or obliged to make efforts to "prohibit unfair discriminatory treatment" and "provide reasonable accommodation" to students with disabilities. In this training, students will first learn basic knowledge about "disability" and then outline 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 the workshop. |

"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, expected effects, problems, etc. In addition, through workshops, students will create and mutually evaluate actual lesson design plans incorporating active learning. |

Implementation Report
In fiscal 2018, the program was subdivided into two 1.5-day × previous programs, and was held five times on a total of seven themes from September 29, 2018 ~ February 4, 2019.
The number of participants was 11 in the 1st session, 9 in the 2nd session, 17 in the 3rd session, 11 in the 4th session, and 15 in the 5th session, which was more than usual regardless of faculty and staff, including universities in other prefectures.
In the questionnaire for participants, the percentage of respondents who answered "satisfied" or "somewhat satisfied" was almost 100% for each training, indicating that they were very satisfied.
In addition, in the free description column, "I understood the necessity of participation by understanding the background of the introduction of FD" ("Basic knowledge of FD – Toward sustainable skill development"), and "I was able to learn again the importance of consistency between curriculum and lesson design." ("Basic knowledge and workshop for lesson design"), "I was able to formulate lesson plans, develop lesson methods, and learn examples of lessons that are easy for students to understand", "I got an opportunity to reconsider my own lessons from various angles" ("Lesson Design and Lesson Practice Workshop"), "Methodologies for grading and syllabus creation, which I usually do almost arbitrarily, I was able to compare and discuss with other teachers" ("Basic knowledge and workshop for grading"), "I received various knowledge about disabilities and very meaningful advice on how to interact with students in the future" ("Learning Support / Special Needs Workshop"), "It was a good opportunity to reflect on my practice" ("Learner-centered class workshop"). It seemed that it was a great reference for improving the class in the future.
