Group work session
Group photo
In the first half of the English essay writing course, Professor Heichiku gave a lecture on the structure of English essays. Then, in a group work session, we challenged ourselves to predict the appropriate title from the abstract of an essay with the title hidden
Furthermore, during the networking session in the latter half of the event, we were able to report on the progress made over the approximately three months since the start of the second phase and share ideas for the future
For the third-year students (2021 academic year), this lecture and exchange event was their first opportunity to meet in person. Their bonds have strengthened, and we look forward to them continuing to inspire and challenge each other!
