Consultation
The Center for Research and Development of Higher Education is committed to providing support on FD mainly for faculty/staff members at the University of Tokyo.
“What kind of group activity works for large classes?”
“How should we design and structure open lectures for secondary school students?”
“What should I start with when implementing an FD program at the department?”
