Introduction of seminar activities conducted in Yamada Laboratory
Research Seminar
The research seminar consists of two parts. The first part is a seminar in which students and participants make presentations on their research and practice and discuss how to develop their research and practice. We discuss how to improve the research and practice presented by the presenters, what kind of data should be collected, where there may be opportunities for practice, what evaluation methods should be used, and so on. The second part is a reading of the English literature. The aim is to learn the basic theories needed in educational technology research. We are currently reading Cambridge Handbook of Cognition and Education.
Frequency and time: Twice a month (every other week) Mondays, 13:00-14:30
English Literature Seminar
The English Literature Seminar is a seminar in which participants read English-language articles related to their research and practice. Research in educational technology is conducted not only domestically but also internationally, and because it is research, it must be highly original. In order to conduct research and practice with a high degree of originality, it is necessary to review research and practice papers both domestically and internationally, and to examine the good points, points to be improved, and limitations of the papers. In this seminar, students are asked to select an article they would like to read from international journals, read it, compile it into a resume of three to five pages, and make a presentation. Afterwards, we will discuss the position of the paper in the presenter's research, future research development, etc., with the aim of learning research methods and developing research.
Frequency and time: Once a week on Mondays from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Statistics Seminar
The Statistics Seminar is a seminar to learn about statistics, which is the basic knowledge for advancing educational technology research. This is an independent seminar for students. Since we are not doing research on statistics, we do not aim to go into statistics. We use statistics as a tool. However, even to use it as a tool, you must understand the minimum knowledge and rules. In this seminar, we aim to learn statistics as a tool by reading basic literature on statistics and actually analyzing data.
Frequency and time: Once a week on Mondays
Cognitive Psychology Seminar
The Cognitive Psychology Seminar is designed for students to gain an understanding of basic theories in order to advance their educational technology research. This seminar is conducted as an independent seminar for students. In learning, people perceive, process, interpret, and make sense of a variety of information. In this learning process, learning occurs in a variety of situations, including learning from a variety of information media and learning through apprenticeship in human relationships. But what kind of cognitive processing does a person perform in this process? There are many theories related to this question, and they are fundamental to educational technology research.
Frequency and time: Once a week on Mondays
Inquiry for participation in the seminar
We basically take a "welcome" attitude toward accepting seminar participation, but we do not accept those who are passive and say, "I don't want to be in charge of literature and presentations, but I want to participate”. As long as you participate, you will be in charge of literature reading and presentations at research seminars (as a rule of thumb, once or twice every six months). In addition, in order to ensure that you participate responsibly, we accept only those who will participate on an ongoing basis (we would like you to participate for at least six months). If you are a research minded person with a strong will to learn and enhance not only your own research but also the research of other participants, we are happy to welcome you. If you are interested in participating, please send me an email telling me which seminar you would like to participate in and why. I look forward to hearing from you.
