Workshop (Part 1)
| At first, a final draft chart representing, in one glance, “the goal of The Assembly Education program,” was introduced as the outcome from the first workshop “Group Work 1: Simply visualizing the achievements of The Assembly Education program,” presented by Prof. Ohtsuki, Director of the Center for The Assembly Education. The chart would help all academic staff to share common understanding of the goal. Following this, Prof. Michiko Goto from the Faculty of Medicine at Mie University, delivered a lecture entitled “Communication with Others: Cross-cultural Understanding.” The importance of communication as the basis of The Assembly Education program was presented from the perspective of “communicating” through the “understanding of different cultures.” |

Workshop (Part 2)
| After Prof. Goto's lecture, we broadly classified the issues identified in the first workshop “Group Work 2: Identifying the issues associated with The Assembly Education program” into the following three categories: “issues and challenges related to students,” “issues and challenges related to academic staff,” and “issues and challenges related to the environment and structure.” Then, each group discussed tangible solutions to the respective issues under the theme of “Resolving issues associated with The Assembly Education program.” This was a smaller scale workshop, only attended by members of the Center for The Assembly Education and members of the Office for the promotion of The Assembly Education, and the group work was more animated compared to the first workshop. |
