| Course description |
|
In Global Advanced Science, students learn in vivid detail about internationally competitive, cutting-edge research from distinguished international professors of GIR, and about how research develops through scientist network and collaborations across the world. The lectures also include examples of how basic studies are fundamental to and applied to the cutting-edge research, and of the research environment in the globalized society. Through such experience, students are encouraged to consider the values of their studies and research in a broad context and towards their own future. This course will aid students to elevate their global awareness and improve their English communication skills in practice. This lecture course is included in Global Integrated Studies of the Liberal Arts and Fundamental Studies, and offers students opportunities to apply and integrate their knowledge and skills obtained in the foundation courses during their first two years in the university. |
| Expected Learning |
|
1. To participate in lectures and discussion on scientific research and to be able to describe important points of the lecture and discussion in English 2. To be able to explain own thoughts on international research environment and how research develops through international activities 3. To consider the values of their studies and research in a broad context and towards their own future and recognize the knowledge and skills to be acquired during academic activities in university Competency development: Global awareness, Communication |
| Course schedule |

< Common session1: 1 class > 1: Introductory class. The objectives and outline of the course are described in Japanese, as well as the importance of scientific presentation and discussion conducted in English. < GIR session1: 3 classes > 2: Preparatory class. The topic and content of the lecture planned for the 3rd class are briefly explained in Japanese, so that students are familiarized with specific terms and can prepare for discussion. 3: Lecture by Prof Gentiane Venture on her research. The lecture title is “Is it possible to live with robots?”. See below for the abstract. Questions-and-answers for the lecture, followed by discussion on the questions proposed by the GIR international researcher. The language used in this class is English. 4: Lecture 2 by Prof Gentiane Venture on how fundamental studies lead to advanced research. Group discussion on international research environment and collaborations, and also on how to relate own studies to the future research activities. The languages used in this class is English and Japanese. < GIR session2: 3 classes > 5: Preparatory class. The topic and content of the lecture planned for the 6th class are briefly explained in Japanese, so that students are familiarized with specific terms and can prepare for discussion. 6: Lecture by Prof Wuled Lenggoro on his research. The lecture title is “Physics and Chemistry of Particles in Air”. See below for the abstract. Questions-and-answers for the lecture, followed by discussion on the questions proposed by the GIR international researcher. The language used in this class is English. 7: Lecture 2 by Prof Wuled Lenggoro on how fundamental studies lead to advanced research. Group discussion on international research environment and collaborations, and also on how to relate own studies to the future research activities. The languages used in this class is English and Japanese. < Common session2: 1 class > 8: Concluding class. Learning outcomes are discussed in groups to review the thoughts and findings individually. The language used in this class is Japanese. 【abstract】 "Is it possible to live with robots?" by Prof Venture If it is often said that robots are coming to share our working/living space. I feel lucky it is true for me, but I don't think most people can say the same yet. Human-Robot Interaction studies show that the readiness of the systems is far from reaching expectations. To compensate for the robots’ limitations tricks are used: controlled lab experiments, Wizard of Oz, and minutely scenarized interactions. Studies controlling some very specific parameters are like in-vitro experiments, failing in providing a holistic study of human and robot shared experience. "HRI in the wild", in ecological environment, can provide a rich data set of interactions, they are like in-vivo experiments. Because of the unstructured nature of the experience, programming such interactions is ultimately time consuming and requires multiple expertise, thus often left behind. I will present our tools to create HRI in the wild and some applications in kindergarten and private houses. I will introduce our robot cognitive processes and expressive movements generation. I will conclude with some robot & UX design perspectives. "Physics and Chemistry of Particles in Air" by Prof Lenggoro The physical and chemical properties of airborne (gas-phase) particles effect the？air quality (indoor or outdoor). It’s important to understand how the airborne particles (for example: air pollution) form and the role they play in the Earth's climate through their interactions with clouds. It is also crucial to understand the chemical reactions leading to production of the "good" particle. The range of nanophase-materials generated by these gas-routes has increased in recent years to include many metals and various oxide ceramics. |
