	Today, the times demand the ability to live and work in reality. In order to realize this, it will be necessary for each person to think for themselves and learn how to learn how to nurture their own ideas in the learning process that leads from high school to university. As one of the attempts, we, the Consortium for the Promotion of University-initiated Education, are currently working to create new lessons in high schools by utilizing the learning mechanism hidden in "dialogue". Together with the participants, we would like to consider a new form of high school-university collaboration that can be seen from class reforms that nurture the creativity of each individual's knowledge.

Implementation Report

In the "Keynote Speech" of the first part, Professor Hiroshi Uchimura (Professor of Kyoto Institute of Technology), Director of the High School-University Collaboration Promotion Office of the University Consortium Kyoto, explained not only the efforts of the Kyoto High School Collaborative Research Council and the background and purpose of setting the main theme this time, but also explained from an academic perspective the perspective of cognitive psychology, classification of academic ability, university entrance examinations, learning, etc.

Next, high schools and universities that are collaborating with high schools and universities to make advanced initiatives reported on their "practical case studies." Kyoto Municipal Luoyo Technical High School introduced examples of project-based learning in the Special Advance Course (Hyper Stage), Shonhoku Junior College introduced the contents and effects of pre-entrance classes conducted as part of career education for prospective students, Kyoto Municipal Tonan High School introduced high school-university collaboration initiatives and future issues in the specialized course "Education Mirai Course" aimed at teacher training. The University Consortium Kyoto introduced "Maruttoku," a new career education initiative that high school students, university students, and the community are working on together.

In the afternoon, Professor Nahomi Miyake of the University of Tokyo gave a special lecture titled "Exploring a New Form of High School-University Collaboration from the Creation of Knowledge by Each Individual through Dialogue." First, after reviewing the practical case studies in the morning, the "Jigsaw Method with Knowledge Structure" was introduced as a new class practice method for students to deepen their learning through "dialogue," and explanations were given with group work among participants. Through group work, the participants themselves were able to realize that rather than having each student learn individually, they bring what they have learned and share it with the group, which leads to deeper and broader learning and understanding. This time, it was an attempt to take up the case of science, but there were reports that various practical examples of classes were spreading regardless of science subjects or humanities and social sciences, and I got the impression that it could be applied not only in high school but also in various situations such as low-year seminars at universities.

The second part was divided into subcommittees on "Expressive Techniques," "Mathematics," "English," and "Science," where practical examples were shared and opinions were exchanged by subject and theme. In the "Expressive Techniques" section, we were able to further deepen the discussion in Part 1 through group work and other activities. In the "Mathematics" section, there were reports on practical examples of classes using ICT in high schools and practical examples incorporating mathematical activities at universities. In the "English" section, the initiatives for subject guidance exchange between Ritsumeikan University and Ritsumeikan Uji Junior and Senior High School were introduced. In the "Science" section, reports and opinions were exchanged on cooperation between high schools and universities through the "Kyoto Grand Prix in Physics" sponsored by the Kyoto Prefectural Board of Education.

This forum ended with great success. We look forward to your participation in the High School-University Collaborative Education Forum next year.
