    グローバル化が加速する中、世界のサイエンスコミュニティで活躍できる理工系大学院生の人材育成を目指して、研究成果を英語で発信できる英語力と国際社会でのコンピテンシーを培うことが急務とされている。大阪大学工学研究科では、2003年から6年間に渡つて、理工系大学院生のためにカスタマイズされた研修を米国で実施してきた。本稿では、6年間の研修を概観し、教育環境やニーズの変化に対応しながらどのような研修を実施してきたかを報告する。さらに、研修の企画、事前教育、評価の各段階で重要な3要素(危機管理、異文化コミュニケーション、及び英語力)を取り上げて考察を加える。これらの考察に基づいて課題を明確にし、今後の方向性を探る。

    新型コロナウィルス感染拡大の影響で、予定していた調査の実施やアジア諸国での物理的な国際共修モデルの普及や成果発表が困難となった。しかし、オンラインで展開する国際共修という新たな課題への着手により、これまでの研究成果を基盤とした新規研究プロジェクトを立ち上げることが出来た。2019年に研究チームで執筆した国際共修をテーマとした書籍を基盤とし、これにオンライン化によるブレンデッド、ハイフレックス型国際共修の意義や手法を加えた教材を開発し、教育実践者や研究者のためのホームページの整備も進めた。また、東北大学をモデルケースとし、オンライン国際共修の円滑な実施を支援する国際共修学生サポーター制度の設置および学生スタッフの育成に着手するなど、学生主体の国際共修のあり方を追求し教職員支援の強化に反映させる取り組みを行った。今後はこの取り組みを他大学にも広げたい。日本国際教育交流協議会（JAFSA）主催のワークショップ、『国際共修を実践から学ぶ：オンライン授業の導入で変わる学び、変わらない学び』（2020年7月17・31日、11月20・27日、12月1日）、夏季国際教育研究大会（2020年9月3・4日）などの国内における教職員研修にとどまらず、ベトナムやアメリカなどでも教職員を対象としたオンライン研修や学会発表など、国内外で成果報告や普及活動を精力的に行った。22021年2月19日には１年間の活動成果を東北大学主催の国際シンポジウム、『国際共修：新たな学びの環境を創り 教育国際化を捉え直す』で総括した。社会情勢の急激な変化に対応した新たなプロジェクトを推進したことで、国際共修のバーチャル展開への関心の高さを認識する機会を得ることが出来た。同時に、研修に参加する時間が取れない、また研修費が捻出できない、などの課題を抱える国際教育関係者への対応が急務であることを実感するに至った。

    In this study, which analyzed the internationalization of higher education in Asia using the concept of "knowledge diplomacy," the following research was conducted. (1)Together with the Directorate General for Education in Asia and the Pacific of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), we developed indicators for monitoring and evaluating the progress of the internationalization of higher education. The results were published as a UNESCO Policy Brief. (2)More than 30 experts gathered to share information and exchange views on the situation of internationalization of higher education at the national and regional levels in Asia. Every year from 2016 to 2019, more than 30 experts gathered to share information and exchange views on this topic. (3)Country-specific case studies were conducted and reports on five countries (India, Korea, China, Thailand, and Malaysia) were prepared.

    This research project aims to illustrate the dimensions of “Competition” and “Cooperation” in the area of international higher education in China, Korea and Japan through an examination on higher education policies toward internationalization of these three countries. A large number of international educational programs which utilized geographical and cultural similarities of China, Korea Japan have operated at various levels. The international cooperation between three countries has significantly expanded its scale. However, cooperation such as in establishment of international educational degree programs and educational exchanges assured quality of education remains less developed. Both Chinese and Korean governments and their higher education institutions apparently put emphasize on cooperation between Western universities with the intention of making their higher education systems more competitive in the globalized world by adopting advanced educational resources from Western universities.

    1. Survey with Japanese universities We conducted questionnaire and interview research with thirty Japanese universities that have biggest number of international student enrollment to explore how they manage foreign credential evaluations at admission screenings : The result mainly shows the following three points : (1) Systematic approach to foreign credential evaluations does not exist at most of the universities, and they evaluate the documents, such as transcripts and degree certificates, on the basis of knowledge gained from past experiences. (2) They pay attention mostly to the authenticity of the documents rather than its contents. (3) Faculty members are deeply involved in the process of international students admissions. 2. Networking and information gathering in the U. S. and Europe We participated in the annual conferences of NAFSA and EAIE to obtain updated information on foreign credential evaluations in the U. S. and Europe. We also visited professional organization of foreign credential evaluations such as WES, AACRAO, Nuffic to learn actual process of evaluation, training methods of evaluators, background policies, etc. 3. Seminar, Workshop, and Symposium We have organized three opportunities to share our findings and exchange ideas with professionals of international students admissions and policy making for further practical application. (1) We invited professional foreign credential evaluators from U. S., U. K., and the Netherlands to the seminar. They introduced each of the system and practical approach to the audience who are mostly international student admissions officers. (March 2006) (2) We organizes two-days workshop with forty participants by inviting 2 lecturers from WES and Nuffic to spread practical methods of credential evaluations. (July 2006) (3) To summarize the research project, we had an international symposium with two guest speakers, who are scholars of higher education policy, from the U. S. and the Netherlands to discuss policy issues on development of foreign credential evaluation system in Japan. (November 2006)
