Business Overview
We hold a forum for the purpose of “sharing information on domestic trends and disseminating information on initiatives in Kyoto” on the issue of collaboration and connection education between high schools and universities.
Outline of the event
The 21st High School-University Collaborative Education Forum
Classes based on the new Course of Study are held at all high schools, and exploration in each subject and “time for comprehensive inquiry” are being developed. Exploration is essential to realize proactive, interactive, and deep learning, and inquiry begins by finding questions. How can high school and college students find good questions? In order to do so, it will be necessary to grasp the essence of diverse and complex problems, set issues, and form the ability to design questions so that they can lead to creative solutions.
In the reform of high school-university connectivity, it is becoming even more important to have a common understanding and connection of how each stage of high school education, university admissions selection, and university education can work together to enhance the ability to design questions. In recent years, publications on “What is a good question?” and “What is the design of a question?” have been published one after another, and it can be said that it has become a matter of interest not only to high schools and universities, but also to society as a whole.
In this forum, we will explore common ground from high school to university through “good questions.” This is an opportunity for high school and university stakeholders to share and think about issues and think about how high school students can design to encounter questions and deepen their inquiry, and how university students can develop from inquiry to research by utilizing the design skills of questions formed in their studies at university.

| Keynote Speech 1 10:10～11:00 |
Collaborative exploration and questioning design ~Linking with the three pillars of qualities and abilities in the Course of Study~
|
|
|
What is the “essence” of the essential question? Why does it have to be an “essential question”? What is the relationship between “inquiry learning” and “project-based learning” and questions? Questions should be designed flexibly according to the students, environment, and time spent in the unit. Think about how to verbalize which part of the knowledge you are asking and which part of the student’s qualities and abilities you are accessing, and ask good questions. |

| Keynote Speech 2 11:10～12:00 |
Question-making now and in the future: A journey of thought and practice surrounding question-making and question-making
|
|
|
One of the keywords of inquiry learning is “question-making.” Therefore, I asked two questions. One is “how to create questions” and the other is “how to create a place for question-making.” QFT*, a question-building method that I encountered seven years ago, has been a great help in thinking about and putting these questions into practice. In this lecture, I would like to share with you the time of thinking and practical journey surrounding question making by explaining the philosophy and purpose of QFT and the implementation process, hands-on work, question making, and introduction of what I learned from people who are deeply knowledgeable about QFT. ＊Question Formulation Technique |

【Part 2】15:00~17:00 Breakout Session
| Subcommittee 1 【Inquiry】 |
How were the new team exploration activities for high school-university connections developed and put into practice?
Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Education Center Entrance Examination Room, Specially Appointed Professor Kazuhiko Saito
Kyoto Prefectural Board of Education, Leadership Department, High School Education Division, Supervisor Keiya Ito Kyoto Tachibana University, Faculty of Economics, Professor Akinori Inui Kyoto Prefectural Board of Education, Guidance Department, High School Education Division, Guidance Supervisor Minoru Inoue |
|
| In the midst of the expansion of various exploratory activities, the Kyoto Prefectural Board of Education has developed and implemented “Prefectural High School Common Course (Smart AP)” that works on exploratory activities in teams beyond the boundaries of schools. Teachers from both high school and university who were involved in the development and practice will introduce how this course was developed through collaboration between high school and university, how it was put into practice while drawing out students’ questions, and what kind of effects it has obtained. In addition, we will think together with the participants about how to improve the form of inquiry activities. | ||
| Subcommittee 2 【Science】 |
What is a “good question” in the first place? ~Creating indicators for “good questions” through the practice of science~
Kyoto Municipal Horikawa High School Full-time Lecturer Hitoshi Kimura
Kyoto City Board of Education, School Guidance Division, Guidance Supervisor Mr. Takashi Yasukawa |
|
| We will introduce “questions” in science classes that we feel have led to deep learning for students, and introduce themes set in Horikawa High School’s “Inquiry Dojo,” an initiative in which high school students serve as instructors and junior high school students engage in exploratory activities. After that, we will share the “good questions” that the participants themselves think and examples of class practice among the groups, and try to create an index of the “good questions” that we have as a feeling. | ||
| Subcommittee 3 【Information】 |
High schools and universities that connect and connect through information education ~Beyond ideals and reality, expectations and anxieties~
Kyoto Tachibana High School Teacher Takuya Hasegawa
Kyoto Tachibana University, Faculty of Engineering, Associate Professor Yusuke Kataoka Doshisha High School Teacher Jun Suzuki |
|
| “Information I” has been added to the Common Test for University Admissions. However, it is only one of the points of contact between information education in high school and university. How can information education centered on programming and data utilization in high school be connected to information education programs in mathematics, data science, and AI at universities, and how should they be connected? We will deepen discussions by elicciting voices of ideals and realities, expectations and anxieties in the field of information education from both high schools and universities. | ||
| Special Subcommittee (1) 【High School-University Connection】 |
From High School to University The Current State of Pre-Enrollment Education and GP Co-organizer: Association of University Admission Professionals
Assistant Professor, Admission Center, Educational Development Promotion Organization, Nagasaki University
Kyoto Institute of Technology, Faculty of Industrial Sciences, Professor Yowako Yamamoto |
|
| Due to the diversification of the selection content of university entrance examinations and the expansion of entrance examinations within the year, pre-enrollment education is provided to successful applicants. Pre-enrollment education is an educational opportunity that has a significant impact on the transition from secondary education to higher education. We will report on the current situation of pre-enrollment education from the survey conducted last year, and consider what kind of pre-enrollment education is required to transition from high school to university learning and achieve academic achievement. | ||
| Special Subcommittee (2) 【Co-creation between university and high school students】 |
What is the story created by co-creation between university and high school students? ~The Future Envisioned by High School and University Students~
Fukuchiyama Public University, Faculty of Regional Management, 4th year student Takako Kamiguchi

|
| My Project Award for High School Students supports hands-on inquiry learning by high school students. It is a place where high school students from all over the country who have implemented exploratory learning and My Project present their activities and learn from each other through dialogue with participants. Why did the university student in charge of the secretariat of My Project Award decide to be involved in this operation? And what do high school teachers expect to support the participation of high school students in this project? Discussions will be held based on each report. | ||
Information exchange meeting
