Hokkaido University has held a two-day workshop on education every year as one of the main features of faculty development. The main target of this workshop is young faculty members. The main theme of this workshop is to learn how to develop new courses (syllabi). Furthermore, we have chosen an additional theme each year, and that of the 2012 workshops was “Enhancement of Higher Education.” That of the 2013 workshop was “Quality Assurance for Classes.” The 20th workshop was held in June 2012, and had 32 participants from all over Hokkaido University; the 21st workshop was held in November 2012, with 24 participants from all over Hokkaido University and 3 participants from another university; and the 22nd workshop was held in June 2013, with 32 participants from Hokkaido University. The workshops consist of planning courses and special lectures. Planning courses are divided into three elements, goal setting, education strategy setting, and evaluation setting. Each element has three sessions, mini-lectures, small group discussions and a general discussion. Guest speakers gave special lectures about copyright in education (20th-22nd), industry-university cooperation (20th-22nd), the academic support center (22nd) and Nitobe College (22nd). In the answers to questionnaires, participants expressed greater satisfaction with the 22nd workshop than with the 20th and 21st. We consider that the increase in satisfaction is due to the interest in the special lectures.
