Over 200 universities / junior colleges / specialized schools that I have seen from an external perspective as a consultant, over 2,500 high schools, and over 50 universities / junior colleges / specialized schools that I have seen from an internal perspective as a school manager. At school, I have met many students with low self-esteem and those who have lost the mindset that their abilities can grow.
However, I've seen many students grow big quickly when they are self-approved, have small success experiences, and help regain the mindset that they can still grow.
Given the mindset of Japanese high school students today, there are changes in higher education institutions due to various social changes that will occur in the future, but it seems that there are still needs.
It is a need to support the mindset of wanting to learn and grow by oneself and to provide a place for successful experiences.Basically, learning is done by oneself, but it seems necessary to have a place to support a large number of high school students who do not have the joy and experience.
The shift to active learning, which is referred to as active learning, is greatly influenced by the educator's way of being, stance, contact, and guidance.The more advanced online education is, the more real and supportive it will be.
(For active learning, mindset, future prediction, and future education, one of the largest active learning comprehensive information sites in Japan."Find! Active Learning"Please see the video explained by the author at. )
In the future, it is expected that the places of primary and secondary education will evolve, change the mindset of students, and foster active learning habits for all students, but the needs of the place will not disappear even in higher education. Isn't it?On the contrary, it may be the most important concept.Based on that perspective, I would like to explore the future possibilities of the university.
