As an instructor for the high school students, I participated in the Boeing Higher Education Program with the students in Urawa High School and Urawa First Girls’ High School. I gained much knowledge and hearts move through this program.

Before I came to Japan, I had been always hoping to communicate with Japanese high school students, since I want to know what the high school life is like in Japan and what the differences are between Chinese and Japanese high school students. In fact, as a graduate school student instructor, I felt a little worried from the beginning. Because I worried that if I could communicate well with the high school students. But all the worries disappeared after the event started, fortunately, we communicate without obstacles.

The main purpose of this program is to let the high school students to learn the usage of geography information data and to instruct them make a brief presentation. The main process was done by the high school students. I offered them some help and suggestions. We felt a little difficult at the beginning since there was a large amount of data to be dealt with. We encouraged each other and chatted in a relaxed atmosphere and gradually, we confirmed the topic and made out the presentation slides.

During the presentation time, I watched the high school students making the presentation, although it was not perfect, but they are glad to express their various interesting ideas and made all people smile. By talking with the high school students, I learnt that they had various after-school activities and can learn a lot of professional knowledge through these activities. At last, the teachers from Urawa High School also showed impressive presentation.

Thanks for the Boeing Co. to organize such an educational program, which let us international students learn more about Japanese high school life. We had many aspects similar with each other, which makes the students in two countries feel emotionally closer.

  这次作为高中生们的指导员,参加波音公司举办的东京大学和浦和高中以及浦和第一女子高中的交流讲座,我感觉收获了很多知识和感动。

  来日本之前就一直很想和日本的高中生们进行交流活动,我很想了解日本的高中生活到底是怎样的,和中国的高中生活有哪些异同点。这次作为大学院生外国人留学生指导员,一开始还是有些许不安的,不知能不能和高中生的同学们顺利交流好,但是活动开始后这些担心就都消失了,同学们很热情,我们交流的很顺利。

  这次活动的主要任务是让高中生们了解地理信息数据的使用方法,并指导他们完成一份简单的PPT发表。主要工作是由高中生们完成,指导员给予他们一些建议或帮助。面对庞大的数据,一开始我们觉得有些困难,不知从哪里开始。我和鼓励同组的高中生们都发挥想象力尽力发表自己的意见,在一步一步的讨论下,我们最终确立了目标得出了结论,完成了简单的发表。

  在发表时,看到高中的同学们在台上演讲,虽然并不完美,但是他们勇于表达自己的看法,能够有各种各样新奇的想法和结论,让我感到很高兴。我的高中时代并没有这么多有意思的课外活动,这次通过和日本高中生们的交流,我了解到了他们有很多的部活,能够积累很多的课外知识和专门技能,拓展他们的兴趣爱好,听到他们都参加了很多有意思的部活,我很高兴。最后在发表环节,浦和高校的教师们也进行了精彩的发表,老师们的演讲很精彩,为我们树立了榜样。

  感谢波音公司组织的交流项目,让我们外国人留学生也可以更加接近理解日本的高中生活。让我回想起了我高中时代的很多事情,我们有很多相似之处,这让我觉得两国学生的情感更近了。
