Open Campus - fun for all!
2024.06.11 オープンキャンパス
We have just held our first summer Open Campus and we thoroughly enjoyed welcoming high school students and their parents to the International Department of English. It was a really rainy day, but we were so pleased to meet all those who came to join us.
(今年度最初のオープンキャンパスを実施しました。あいにくの雨模様でしたが、国際英語学科に興味を持ってくださっている高校生、保護者の皆様がたくさんお越しくださり、楽しい1日となりました。)
Our fantastic Open Campus staff, in their light blue T-shirts, did a great job as always explaining the opportunities available to students in our department.
(学生スタッフはお馴染みの水色の学科Tシャツを着て、学科の学びや活動について紹介してくれました。)
They also gave insights into what being a student is really like, perhaps giving a perspective that teachers can't quite manage!
(在学生だからこそ話せる学生生活の本音に、高校生も興味津々でした。)
Our students then joined the high school visitors for a taster of a university class - it was a collaborative effort and mirrored our efforts on campus to make our classes as active as possible.
(英語の多様性について学ぶ模擬授業では、学生スタッフも交わり、本学のアクティブラーニングの良さを体験してもらえたのではないでしょうか。)
After some fun English exercises, high school students and their parents had time to take a look at the exhibition materials, and to quiz the teachers about life on campus and opportunities in the department.
(英語のゲームを楽しんだ後は、留学プログラムや活動についての展示を見ながら、さらにリラックスした雰囲気でお話をしました。)
There was also the chance to speak some English with one of our friendly exchange students from the United States and to compare cultures at the same time.
(英会話を楽しむブース"English Cafe"では、アメリカの提携大学からの交換留学生も参加。日本に暮らして体験した異文化について英語で話してくれました。)
And a final few minutes to ask any last-minute questions to our students who helped make the Open Campus so successful.
(高校生の皆さんには大学についてたくさんの疑問がありますが、学生スタッフが丁寧に答えてくれていました。)
We had a great day, and we hope that you will join us for further Open Campuses this summer. Come and find out what a worthwhile experience you can have in the Department of International English at Hiroshima Jogakuin University.
(夏のオープンキャンパスはこれからも続きます。ぜひ一度、国際英語学科の学びを体験しに来てみてください。)
