Creative Human Resource Development for the Future from the Frontline of Education (March 3, 10:00-11:20)

We will hold a panel discussion, "Thinking from the Frontline of Education, Creative Human Resource Development in the Future," within the 7th Annual Conference of the Association of Hyperdifferent Fields, sponsored by RIVANES (March 2 and 3, 2018 @ TEPIA Advanced Technology Pavilion).

Companies are focusing on fostering creative human resources while starting new initiatives for the next 5 to 10 years. The current generation of high school and junior high school students will be responsible for these new initiatives, and the field of school education for nurturing the next generation is undergoing major changes with the reform of university entrance examinations in 2020 and the revision of the Courses of Study in 2022, which is said to be the most significant reform since the Meiji Restoration. We can see the future of human resources who will grow through independent learning, such as "problem-based research," in which students set their own problems and think about how to solve them, and the introduction of learning methods such as active learning and project-based learning (PBL).

If we look at it as a place to nurture "creative human resources" who set their own issues and take on the challenge of solving them, there must be many hints in the field of education that we can apply to our own work. Together with companies, educational institutions, and current high school students, we will think about the future of creative human resource development.

Advance registration is required to attend the lecture, so please register as soon as possible.

Outline of the 7th Hyperdifferential Field Conference

What is the Hyper Interdisciplinary Conference?

Since 2002, when RIVERNESS was founded, we have held an annual "Super Hetero-Disciplinary Exchange Meeting" where students and researchers participating in internship programs at RIVERNESS discuss their thoughts on their research and issues they wish to solve through their research. Since 2012, the conference has evolved into a "super interdisciplinary conference" with the participation of researchers from industry and academia, where discussions are held from a broader perspective.

Today, the meeting is held annually as a gathering of people from diverse fields and industries, ranging from junior high and high school students, researchers and engineers in academia (including engineers from local factories), people involved in venture companies, accelerators, and managers and business development personnel from large corporations.
