We welcome students enrolled in teacher training courses who want to learn more about education!
Research Themes
This may seem a bit sudden, but let's say you're asked to tell us your thoughts about education.
What do you think? Don't you think it might actually be possible?
Why do you think that is the case, even though it is not something you study on a daily basis (or have studied in the past)?
One reason for this is that we all have been involved in education, whether at home or at school.
Next, try to imagine how education is discussed. Take a commentator on a TV information program as an example. Have you ever heard a commentator talk in a dubious way, as if they were treating their own personal experiences as absolute?
In light of this current educational situation, this seminar aims to deepen educational knowledge by delving into educational phenomena based on evidence.
Activities
The seminar is moderate in size, so we are able to provide activities that take into consideration the wishes and circumstances of each seminar student.
Although the research theme is education, we hope that students will learn a variety of things, including the foundational knowledge and skills required to study the field, as well as the mindset necessary to take on a teaching role in the future.
If requested, we will also provide opportunities to improve motivation for the teaching profession and recreational activities for the purpose of interaction and a change of pace.
We also place great importance on providing support to each individual seminar student, for example by holding individual interviews and providing a forum for consultation.
Student Voices
Department of Commerce Rina Yamazaki
This seminar is recommended for those who want to learn about education through practice. You can learn about education from various angles. Since the focus is on presentations, preparing materials and commenting in front of others can be difficult. However, there are more things you learn than anything difficult. By experiencing a level above others at an early stage, I believe that it will definitely lead to your goals later on. In addition, the distance between the professor and the students is close, so you can build a good relationship with the professor, receiving various comments and being able to consult about anything.
