Record of Our Activities

On July 14th, the third year students of the SGH course had their final presentation.  They have worked on their project for more than a year and a half and they did their final presentation in front of teacher around the country and foreign guests.  Professor Shigeru Matsumoto of Rikkyo University and foreign exchange students from Tokyo University of Foreign Studies and Kanazawa University were invited to the sessions.  The people who watched and listened to the presentation gave positive comments like: “The students looked very confident when they were answering questions during the Q&A sessions”, “Most of the research consisted factors from the SDGs and were amazing”.
  
【Comments from students】
・It was our first time working and doing research on the same theme for more than a year and half.  There were tough times, but we came to realize each other’s characteristics and started to respect each other.  We were able to experience things, which were impossible if we worked on it by ourseleves.
・At first, I had difficulty explaining things in English.  There were even times when I had difficulties explaining things in Japanese.  However, now that I have finished giving the presentation for my research, I can say this with confidence.  “If the listeners feel that you are trying hard to get the message across, they will try hard to understand you.  So don’t give up.”
