27日（木）西条市との交流プログラムの一環で、中国河北大学の学生さんが20名ほど来校されました
本校ESS部との交流会の様子です！
職員室に飾ってあった、お皿をお見せしたら河北大学９０周年の記念品だと教えてくださいました。
そのうえ、１００周年記念のバッグを持参されていて、プレゼントしてくださいました
学生のみなさん日本語検定１級～２級を持っていて、日本語が堪能でした。外国語として、日本語を学ぶ学生が一番多いそうです！きっかけは幼いころ見たアニメなどらしいです。
中国での厳しい校則について、前髪は垂らしてはいけないらしい！？大学では朝の5時から勉強しているらしい！？（思えば国際交流活動で校則の話をしているグループは多いなあ・・笑）
高校の訪問は西条高校が初めてだったらしいのですが、盛り上がっていましたよ
訪問ありがとうございました！
On saturday 17th, 7 second-year students and 2 first-year students from the commerce cource participated in the 5th Saturday Education. This time, they walked up the old walking course of Mt.ishizuchi. They enjoyed the beauty of nature, feeling the mystery in the mountains. At Gokurakuji temple, they learned about “the attraction of mountains”, “how to spend time in nature” and “the history of the Ooboki district.” They had a wonderful time feeling the autumn coming.
We invited Mr. Sasaki, from Saijo City Hall's Tourism Promotion Division, Industry and Economy Department, and Ms. Nguyen, a CIR, to give a lecture on "Multicultural Community Development in Saijo City," to 1st grade students They learned about the current status of international exchange in Saijo City, found some issues to be improved, and thought about their research themes. It was a valuable opportunity for the students to learn about what is going on in Saijo City.
On August 27 (Sat.) and 28 (Sun.), a two-day science camp was held, in cooperation with Kyoto University, Kochi University, and Saijo City. On the first day, students were separated into two groups and did the field work after a lecture. A team collected information of the region and geography by using GPS. B team collected organisms. On the second day, A team made a map based on the information collected the day before, and B team made the biological specimen in the morning. In the afternoon, students invited people from the community and presented them the results of the two days. It was a very valuable opportunity to understand the region, while contacting with university researchers.
On Monday, 12th, we held open classes on Improving ICT Utilization in Class. Two teachers conducted lessons using ICT in English and Japanese classes. In each class, every student used their own laptop, and enjoyed the class with a positive attitude.
