【Report】 I tried to infiltrate a practical women's college and new student seminar.
“Practice Women's University” (Higashi 1-chome, Shibuya-ku), which has a campus in Shibuya, held a freshmen seminar at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences on April 13 in the city of Shibuya.
The university emphasizes educational research in social sciences as a practical study. In Shibuya, where cultural and corporate activities are prosperous, research, fieldwork and industry-academia collaboration with companies have been conducted to broaden the students' motivation to learn.
The seminar on the theme of "Taking a step in learning in university, learning Shibuya, learning in Shibuya" is for new students to talk together on the inside and outside of the campus and to deepen their friendship. Third time. Each year, we formed a tag with a company based in Shibuya, and TOKYU CORPORATION participated this year to set up field work issues etc.
| What is Shibuya recommended for "the third foreigner to come to Japan"?
TOKYU CORPORATION is engaged in community development activities, saying, "I want to walk and make Shibuya, my place of work, a pleasant city. It was said that he would like to cooperate with this seminar from the young viewpoint of university students based in the same town and wanting to feel Shibuya as "my own goto".
The following five tasks were given to the students this time. Issues focused on the current state of Shibuya, such as "the discovery of Shibuya's attractiveness outside the city of young people" and "Shibuya that is also the venue of the Tokyo Paralympic", were outstanding.
1. Shibuya of "Don" to which the third foreigner in Japan walks
2. Shibuya where grandpa and grandma who thought that it was a town of young people feel relieved
3. Shibuya where people like wheelchairs can enjoy barrier-free
4. Enjoy Shibuya while looking up
5. Enjoy your eyes at Shibuya and enjoy Shibuya
Specifically, we will look at the flow of field work. First of all, a total of 40 teams challenge these challenges, with about six new students as a group. Each team summarizes the findings of walking on the streets of Shibuya, etc., on a single assigned task, in a single slide, and finally, after a one minute presentation, the results of the review will be presented.
New students start the operation meeting for each team when each task is decided. After doing some research on the Internet, I went to the city with a map of Shibuya. While going to the target place, students take pictures with a smartphone focusing on various things in the city such as buildings and streets. I was trying to collect information while exchanging opinions.
The team whose theme is "Shibuya, the third foreigner walks in Japan," interviews foreigners who have actually met in the city, asking "Where are you going now?" It was obvious that they were serious about tackling the given tasks.
After about two and a half hours of field work, I returned to university and started making slides. While pasting the photograph taken in the field on the map of Shibuya, I added a catch copy and a # (hash tag) and added a point introduction etc. The form of making a slide as easy to understand as possible assuming a presentation was so solid that I could not think it was a student who just entered.
| A perspective unique to female students, such as "cute culture"
Finally a tense presentation time. A team based on the theme of "Shibuya's third visit to Japan by a foreigner," said, "I walked around! Discover a new Shibuya!" And explored Daikanyama.We have created a route for foreigners who are interested in Japanese culture, such as restaurants that can enjoy Japanese cuisine of Issame Sana, old Asakura family houses of important cultural properties, and tenugui specialty stores. The students said, "The charm of Shibuya is not only in front of the station, but you can feel the goodness of Japan if you walk a little," he summarized the attraction of Daikanyama one station away from Shibuya station.
In addition, various points of the city of Shibuya captured from the viewpoint of young female students, such as "SHIBUYA MARKCITY" with excellent barrier-free and Japanese "Kawaii culture", were projected on the screen.
If you look up a little with your face, you can see the unusual Shibuya
After the presentation, the "Best Award", "Audience Award" and "TOKYU CORPORATION Award" were announced, and the D-2 (Shibuya Top Left Expedition) team with the theme "Enjoy Shibuya while looking up" was chosen for the highest award It was
In the presentation, "Do you want to make new discoveries in Shibuya where a lot of people come and go? We cut out the scenery of Shibuya, which we always visit this time, with a little face up" and cut it out, starting from Shibuya Station We introduced a course that aimed at "Cosmo Planetarium Shibuya" in Sakagami, Sakuragaoka-cho, through a park street and a Spanish slope.
Explaining that we have found the cafe "and people jinnan" that the ceiling of the interior is beautiful like a starry sky, the cafe "La SOFFITTA" where the spiral staircase spreads, and the unique shape of UNIQLO (Spain Saka branch) About the cosmo planetarium that will be the final point, I appealed to see 265,000 full-sky stars that can not be tasted in Tokyo.
"Shibuya has a noisy image, but it is a course where you can feel the flow of time slowly. If you tend to turn down at the end there! You can see that, "he called and concluded.
As for the reason for selection, the dean of the department said, “Look up at 45 degrees diagonally. It was a catchy copy with a great impact. The most persuasive in the presentation is the tone of the voice. And added a general comment.
Members of D-2 who received high evaluation leaked their impressions that "I thought that I was not good because other teams and keywords had suffered," and "I'm glad I was praised that the way of presentation was good." .
Each student is "a member of the city of Shibuya"
Finally, a message was sent from TOKYU CORPORATION to new students. "Every student is going to be a member of the city of Shibuya for the next four years. I want you to find issues in the city of Shibuya from your own perspective even while attending school or playing." He also called out, "Please, take action to solve it."
I felt the possibility of further development in the solid viewpoints and presentation skills of the 10-day-old young students who entered. Also, four years of university is not only quick but also a time when you can experience irreplaceable experiences. I look forward to the future activities of the students.
