In order to further improve our research, we are planning to hold a meeting in September to receive advice from external evaluation committee members.
As a first step, we held a meeting with Dr. Kayoko Kurita (University of Tokyo), a member of the external evaluation committee for the network group.
The following is a comment from Dr. Jun Kashihara, the leader of the network group.

The discussion with Dr. Kurita, who specializes in higher education, centered on the topic of “how to expand the scope of the Network Group’s activities and how to nurture the next generation of human resources.
One of the points he made was that “when preparing learning maps for the next generation, we tend to set a high hurdle from the perspective of experts, saying, ‘Everyone should be able to understand at least this much. He gave us hints for new thoughts, such as “How can we involve people who are working hard in clinical practice in a simple way and encourage them to take a step forward in the direction of “utilizing mathematical data and networks and making use of them in practice”?
He also suggested that “the technology of network analysis itself can be applied to the evaluation of human resource development in schools and companies” and “we may find more possibilities for collaboration in the field of EdTech than in existing pedagogy. It was truly a valuable experience to realize that there may be people who are interested in the Network Group’s activities in fields we do not yet know about, and we hope to “talk about the Network Group in various places! “I want to talk about the Network Team in various places,” and “I want to enjoy unexpected new developments! I am now eager to talk about the Network Team in various places and to enjoy unexpected new developments!

We will continue to hold meetings with the external evaluation committee members in each group and send out comments from the participants in each group.
Thank you for your continued support of this area.
