「広島大学と広大附属福山の生徒がともに未来の医療を創るプロジェクト」の実施とその教育効果に関する研究

The "Hiroshima University and Hiroshima University High School, Fukuyama Students to Create Future Medical Care Projects" is a collaborative project with the Translational Research Center (TRC) of Hiroshima University. The collaboration between a university and a university-affiliated school on TR looks groundbreaking even from a global perspective. This project focuses on medical equipment and asks students to create a need statement (a single sentence to summarize problem, population and outcome). Hiroshima University High School, Fukuyama has been involved in the WWL (World Wide Learning) Consortium Construction Support Project (a research and development project for the construction of an individualized and optimal learning environment) supported by Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT), under the management of Hiroshima University. The theme of this project is "The construction of an individualized and optimal learning environment centered on a problem inquiry learning program that fosters a consciousness of being involved party." Creating a need statement is an experience for students to develop a consciousness of being involved party, in which they formulate questions and set issues while assuming someone's distress or difficulty and imagining a situation in which it can be resolved. This project suggested that students can develop a consciousness of being involved party by discovering issues through empathy, and that they can deepen their understanding of their own connection to society and deepen their self-reflection by considering solutions based on concrete and realistic assumptions of distress and difficulty.
