文化交流の実践

 

中国、韓国、台湾、そしてそれらの国々に続いてベトナム、タイと、20世紀後葉まで日本が開発途上国とみなして国々は、教育、とくに英語教育に力を入れてきました。その結果、21世紀の前葉では、これらの国々の学生が学業を終えて、世界中の政治界、経済界、学術界で活躍しています。ところが日本では、グローバル人材育成を謳っているにもかかわらず、学生の内向き傾向は変わることがありません。

 学生が少しでも外向きになり、国内志向の呪縛から解かれるための方法のひとつとして、日本の学生グループが、テレビ会議システムを利用してアジアの他大学の学生グループと文化交流する試みを開始しました。

6年間行ったそのノウハウと実践をまとめて、書籍化しました。

Learning Asian Culture: A TV Conference between Indonesia and Japanese Students


Date:  Monday, February 9, 2015.
Time:13:30 to 15:30 (11:30-13:30 Indonesian Standard Time)

Organizer:

Shigeo Suzuki, Professor, School of Languages and Cultures, Nagoya University.
Dr. Mark Week, School ofLanguages and Cultures, Nagoya University.
Siti Rohani, Professor, State Polytechnic of Malang, Indonesia

Purpose:

The general purpose of our project is to encourage students to learn and appreciate how other cultures have connections with their own across historical differences and language barriers. They would learn about these connections through showing some cultural activities or issues they are actively engaged in in their respective countries. It is hoped that they will exchange information, experiences and views on these with foreign students through a television conference. The proposed presentation and discussions obviously will not take place in completely flawless, standardized English but with an English language flavored with the indigenous cultural influences of the students’ respective countries.

 

Plan:

In the joint project between your university and ours, a group of two to five students will present their summary of traditional culture in a TV conference, followed by a forty-minute discussion between the Indonesian and Japanese students.  

 Participants:
Three students: two from Department of Technology and one from that of Education, Nagoya University, Japan

Nine students, State Polytechnic of Malang, Indonesia
