Nagahama Seminar participated in the 13th Joint Seminar Report held at Sasebo School of the University of Nagasaki on December 21 (Saturday). This time, 10 seminars participated and presented their daily research results. The report time is 25 minutes and the question is 10 minutes, and it is necessary to prepare well.

　We presented our research results for one year under two themes: "Disasters in History - Resilience and Vulnerability" and "LGBT in History." In the peer review, we were unfortunately not selected for the Excellence Report, but we worked as hard as we could. Teachers from the University of Nagasaki Sasebo School also commented that "the questions of students at Shimonoseki City University were outstanding in both quality and quantity." The students also heard research reports from different fields and seemed to be greatly stimulated.

I would like to introduce the opinions of the participating students. “The first is the difficulty of group activities. When there was a difference in motivation within the group, I had a hard time deciding how to proceed. If you don’t want to quit, it’s easy to say. However, I thought it had compromised the group activities. The second is the ability to think logically. I think I've run away from reading for a long time. Through my research, I realized again my weaknesses. Recently, I try to take 30 minutes of reading before going to bed. It is intended to make reading habitual.” In this way, through seminar activities, you can notice your weaknesses and lead to future growth.

　Before and after the debriefing session, I also touched on the porcelain industry in Arida and Hasami. Through painting experiences and tours of museums, it was time to think about the meaning of local traditional industries that I do not usually touch. By touching on the ingenuity of how to show and sell at stores, it seemed that it became a learning of economic and management that was different from the university. In addition, the fourth graders also actively supported me, and I feel that the team strength has increased significantly. It was also impressive that the graduates also participated on the way and talked about the difficulties and fun of working adults.

　Last but not least, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone involved in the University of Nagasaki and everyone who responded in various places for their support in the growth of students.
