The first year Global Course students (1-7 and 8 ) participated in a workshop, "What Is Research Project?　What Is Vitalization of Local Community?" in Innovation Studies I held on April 27 (Sa). The lecturer and facilitator Ms. KANKI Kiyoko, professor at Graduate School of Engineering and Faculty of Engineering of Kyoto University, gave the students a valuable opportunity to think of what research project is and what vitalization of local community is through her lecture and the following workshop. In those activities, the students learned what is needed to link research projects they are going to work on throughout the year and vitalization of the local communities. Also, they realized the advantages and accompanying difficulties that high school students are expected to have when they work on this kind of project-based learning. This opportunity gave the students a great insight into the way they develop their ideas into the themes of their research projects.
