Course description and aims

The instructor wants to develop a learning community on the topic of creating a collaborative learning community. Last year this class was held by online and learned together about SDGs. I hope we can see face to face this year.
The instructor will encourages students to facilitate collaborative learning each other, and to cultivate students' mindfulness. All Students will facilitate in turn.

Student learning outcomes

Course taught by instructors with work experience

Applicable How instructors' work experience benefits the course
I worked for a big advertising company for 30 years. I studied Organizational Development and Transformation in Master course, and began to practice workshops and facilitation in the fields of business, administration, NPOs, and education. And I had a lot of journey over the world. I would like to integrate these experiences and aim to create a collaborative learning community.
