◇ Outline of the CourseThe teacher-training program at Hyogo University of Teacher Education (HUTE) is designed

for school teachers from foreign countries (referred to as international school teachers) seeking for higher levels of pedagogical competence and abilities. This program provides a broad range of opportunities for interdisciplinary study and research in school education. The Graduate School teaching staff are experts in all fields of school education and provide research opportunities to meet the needs and interests of the international school teachers. Almost two–thirds of the Japanese graduate students of HUTE are in-service teachers. The

international school teacher is thus able to collaborate with his or her Japanese teacher counter-part and exchange views on teaching methods and educational practices.(1) Japanese language training: October 1, 2011 - March 31, 2013 (18 months)

The international school teachers are required to take the Japanese Language Course at an institute (usually at Kobe University) for 6 months: October 1, 2011 - March 31, 2012. Then, supplementary classes for Japanese language are offered at HUTE (once a week): May, 2012 -March, 2013. “Japanese and Japanese Culture” (30 hours) and “Current State of Education in Japan” (30hours) are also provided in the Graduate School: April 1, 2012 - March 31, 2013.

(2) Professional studies: April 1, 2012 - March 31, 2013 (One year)Each international school teacher pursues his or her professional training according to his

or her individual program; taking classes with Japanese graduate/undergraduate students, special classes in English, if necessary, a special seminar under the guidance of the international school teacher’s academic supervisor, and educational practicum at the university’s attached elementary and secondary schools. The program is based on the international teachers’ academic interests, Japanese language ability, and professional

competence. Since most classes are conducted in Japanese, it is desirable to achieve a certain level of Japanese language ability through the six months of language training in Japan. It is possible, however, to complete studies in English in some fields.(3) A Graduate School teaching staff member will serve as an academic supervisor providing on-going. Upon acceptance into the program, the international school teacher collaborates with his or her academic supervisor via e-mail to develop a teacher training plan. By the end of program, international school teachers are required to write a Master’s thesis on their research

studies and make a class presentation under guidance of their supervisors.

(4) Study Tours, Fieldtrips, and other Educational ActivitiesThe Kato City International Exchange Association and volunteer organizations provide

international school teacher study tours, cultural fieldtrips, and exchange parties and meetings.

Special Features of the CourseThe Hyogo University of Teacher Education has specialists in a variety of educational fields supporting its "Graduate School for Teaching Staff". Research

of timely and essential concern at the schools is conducted in collaboration with elementary, middle, and senior high school teaching staff.
