An introductory seminar titled Interactive Short Course in Marine Biology was held at Tohoku University's Asamushi 娱乐老虎机_森林舞会游戏-手机版登录 Center from August 21-26.
Students from a variety of countries and educational backgrounds spent the week working on group projects involving sea roaches, sea snails and other marine life. They also went on a boat excursion and collected marine animals.
Through their experiments, the students learnt basic science processes such as making experimental designs, interpreting results, considering further hypotheses and testing them.
Away from the labs, the students enjoyed community life in the dormitory and had a BBQ party on the seashore. It was an experience unlike regular campus life and organisers of the course hope that the students not only learnt about marine biology, but also made new friends and good memories.
The seminar was led by Martin Robert (Associate Professor, Institute for Excellence in Higher Education), Gaku Kumano (Professor, Asamushi 娱乐老虎机_森林舞会游戏-手机版登录 Center), Ayaki Nakamoto (Assistant Professor, Asamushi 娱乐老虎机_森林舞会游戏-手机版登录 Center), Ian Gleadall (Professor, Graduate School of Agricultural Science) and Yasuyuki Matsuda (Professor, University of Tokyo).
It was supported by the Institute for Excellence in Higher Education (IEHE) educational development grant, and held in cooperation with Programs in English at Komaba (PEAK) at the University of Tokyo and Global 30 project (Establishing University Network for Internationalization).
