研究実績の概要

Public schools in Japan are facing the challenge of accommodating students from diverse racial, cultural, and social backgrounds. One significant hurdle is negotiating between differing religious and moral values, especially when educators lack proper training in diversity. To address this issue, researchers have partnered with colleagues from the international educational organization CEDAR (Communities Engaging with Difference and Religion). Together with collaborators from the the Insitiute for the Promotion of Interculturalism in Education and the Research Center for Diversity and Inclusion at Hiroshima University, they aim to develop new teaching strategies based on CEDAR pedagogy. These activities underwent two phases of testing: an intensive training course in peace education for pre-service and in-service teachers, and a three-day intercultural workshop entitled "わしらの中のよそもん、よそもんの中のわしら" (Seeing them in us, Seeing us in them) that welcomed participants from various backgrounds, including teachers, community members, city officials, welfare supporters, and other public stakeholders. Due to the success of the above activities, the researchers gathered data to analyze the efficacy of CEDAR pedagogy in altering teachers' cultural assumptions and sensitivity in diverse learning settings. This analysis will help researchers adapt activities and develop new teaching strategies for teacher education in diversity, intercultural education, and peacebuilding.

現在までの達成度 (区分)

1: 当初の計画以上に進展している

理由

From April to September 2023, the Principal Investigator (PI) and the Co-Investigators (Co-I and Co-II) collaborated on conducting CEDAR activities and interviews with pre-service and in-service teachers in the context of joint multidisciplinary classes and an intensive peace education course. In January 2024, the PI, Co-I(2), and RCs organized a three-day, two-night workshop that used the CEDAR pedagogy adapted for the Japanese context. The workshop had participants from various fields, including teachers, community members, city officials, welfare supporters, and other public stakeholders. During the workshop, the PI and Co-I(2) collected data through qualitative participant observation methods and questionnaires. Furthermore, PI and Co-I(2) facilitated post-workshop meetings to exchange insights and furnish activity materials aimed at enhancing the intercultural aptitude of concerned experts and community members.

今後の研究の推進方策

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the CEDAR pedagogy and to adapt it to different educational settings. Specifically, the focus is on how this pedagogy impacts pre-service teachers' assumptions and acquisition of intercultural skills, a crucial aspect of their development. From April to June of 2024, the PI and Co-I will analyze the data garnered from a workshop. Until November 2024 they will compare the results with the CEDAR activities carried out in classrooms. This comparative exercise will allow them to devise efficient teaching strategies that can be implemented in classrooms, schools, and other educational settings. From October 2024 to June 2025, the PI and Co-Is will develop teaching material based on the research results.

次年度使用額が生じた理由

Researchers intended to travel to partner institutions to coordinate the CEDAR workshop program, which was postponed. PI and/or Co-Is plan to conduct an exchange of expertise within the next fiscal year by visiting a collaborating institution or inviting experts to visit our university.
