Let’s Join International Video Exchange Live Lectures on Nano-Science between OU and UG !!
The following international video exchange live lectures in English will be held between Osaka University (OU) and the University of Groningen (UG). A couple of one-hour lectures, one from OU and the other from UG, will be given four times. On UG side, there attend the students belonging to the Top Mater Course of NanoScience conducted by Zernike Institute, UG. On OU side, not only those Master and PhD students who are registered as the INSD nanoprogram students but also those who are interested in the lectures are welcome to join the class and discussion. Do not miss such a valuable opportunity! These lectures are regarded as “International Exchange Lectures on Nanoscience and Nanotechnology A” (credit: 1 unit). Please register your name in advance in order to receive the on-line website and lecture slides in advance.
Exchange lectures:
every Friday from October 15th to November 19th, 2021 except on November 5th. On October 15th the introductory lecture is given only in Osaka, together with the video address given by the 2016 Nobel Laureate, UG Prof. Benard L. Feringa,
Time (JST):
16:00-18:15 for October 15th, 22nd and 29th, and 17:00-19:15 for November 12th and 19th (because of winter time in Europe).

English for Materials Scientists 3a class will be held . This course will use the LEGO® Serious Play® method.
English for Materials Scientists 3a
Date: September 13-17,2021
Lecturer : Prof. Mark D. Sheehan(HANNAN UNIVERSITY)
*************************************************************
♦Course Objective
Proficiency in communicating in English in general, and about science in particular, comes from both knowledge and practice, and this course emphasizes both. By participating in LEGO® Serious Play® workshops, students will examine general principles of good discussion skills, as well as the principles associated specifically with scientific research team discussions. The topics students discuss will be drawn from their diverse backgrounds and research interests.
♦Learning Goals
This course will use the LEGO® Serious Play® method, an innovative, experimental process designed to enhance innovation and communication. This method is a unique way to facilitate meetings, communication and problem solving. The goal is to help students tap into hidden potential, and foster creativity. By participating in LEGO® Serious Play® workshops on various scientific topics, students will develop skills in conversation conventions, and subsequently improve their ability to have discussions on science topics in general and their areas of research in particular. Students will actively participate as they problem-solve together, all while having fun in an environment that encourages free idea generation.
♦Special Note
Each student will receive a LEGO® Serious Play® that has been specially designed for this process. They will build LEGO models and share their ideas.
This course will be conducted in person or online using Zoom depending on the COVID-19 pandemic conditions.

INSD Summer School 2021, Osaka-Tsukuba
July 19th - August 16th
On Zoom
The Institute for NanoScience Design, Osaka University will hold the INSD Summer School 2021 on Nanoscience and Nanotechnology with the combination of on-demand and live styles, since this year the movement restrictions caused by the COVID-19 prevent us to invite foreign lecturers abroad to Osaka.
The Summer School 2021 is composed of three topics of lectures that are chosen from our archives recorded in 2018 and 2019.
Each set of recorded lectures of seven or eight times will be uploaded on the INSD website for about two weeks during July 19th and August 16th.
During this period, participating students should finish to view a series of lectures on-demand style and each time soon after viewing each lecture, send their answer to short questions for the evidence of viewing.
The guidance at the beginning, the office hour and the final test of student presentation will be given as live style with the participation of the lecturers abroad.
The ZOOM or Webex system will be used for the final presentation.
The summer school is aimed at fostering international young talent on nanoscience and nanoengineering.
This program is shared with the University of Tsukuba by connecting these university students.
The lecture documents and recorded lectures will be uploaded on URL:http://www.insd.osaka-u.ac.jp/nano/Homepage(Eng)/index.htm
