Organized by: Hokkaido FD/SD Council, Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL)

 The Hokkaido FD/SD Council holds the Hokkaido FDSD Forum every year for two days from the first Friday in September as a learning opportunity to report on practices and exchange information with people from higher education institutions across Japan on the various issues we face. Due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, the forum was held online for only one day until last year. However, this year, we have decided to hold it in-person for the first time in four years.
 Our theme of this year is ‘Universities in the Post-Corona’, and participants will discuss how to make use of the knowledge gained during the three years of the Covid-19 pandemic in future university management, education, and research activities.
 
 The symposium will also pay special attention to the theme ‘The potential of ChatGPT in higher education institutions—from administrative work to education and research’, focusing on ChatGPT, which is a hot topic as generative AI, and discussing how it should be dealt with in higher education institutions. Lectures will be given by Prof. Kenji Araki, a natural language processing specialist (HU), and Mr. Koki Mukono (Panasonic Connect Co., Ltd.), one of the first to introduce ChatGPT in their company, followed by a general discussion including participants.
 
 Individual presentations will be invited from faculty and staff across Japan working on improving classes and administrative work. Five topics for Group Sessions have been prepared. This will be an opportunity for individual participants to reflect on the three years of the Covid-19 pandemic and to think about and discuss the ‘Universities in the Post-Corona’.
 
 The Forum actively invites faculty members and administrative staff to participate. We look forward to welcoming many participants for two days of learning together with the faculty and staff who support the university and higher education.

*Reporting parties for the Part 2 of the Individual Presentations are invited nationwide.
