Overview
We will teach various skills that are not directly related to the research itself but are essential to advance research activities. These skills include writing pseudo code, creating a demo video, and managing a research community. Unfortunately, students often do not receive systematic training in these techniques. Our goal is to provide systematic training in these non-research skills during this lecture. By mastering these skills, we hope students can focus more on their research itself.
While this lecture will be in English, Japanese materials may also be distributed.
- Dates: Wednesday, 2nd period (10:25 - 12:10)
- Location: Faculty of Engineering Bldg. 2
#244#241 - Style: The lecture will be held in-person. No streaming is available.
Overview (Jp)
本講義では、研究そのものとは必ずしも直接関係なくとも、研究活動を進める上で不可欠な様々なスキルを教えます。これらのスキルには、疑似コードの記述、デモビデオの作成、研究コミュニティの管理などが含まれます。こうした技術は、大学の教育プログラム中ではあまり教えられないことが多いです。私たちの目標は、これらの非研究スキルに対する体系的なトレーニングを提供することです。これらのスキルを習得することで、学生が研究そのものにより焦点を当てることができるようになることを目指します。
本講義は英語で行われますが、日本語の資料も配布される可能性があります。
