1) For the Graduate School of System Design and Management lecture "System design and management training," the students, while learning among other things about the approaches, processes, and methods of system design, formed groups of roughly 5 members each and proposed and demonstrated concrete systems on the theme of "System design for revitalizing Minamihiyoshi shopping district." Each team, which consisted of a majority of working students along with new graduates with no work experience, identified issues for the Minamihiyoshi shopping district through open data, observations, interviews, etc., before realizing their own unique system designs and prototypes and demonstrating their effectiveness. Some teams are still continuing to collaborate. 2) In addition, at the Hiyoshidai Elementary School, video data and location information data using GPS for tag rugby and running were shown to students to help them discuss and understand the good and bad movements of themselves and others and how they can improve their performances, with the aim of increasing both interest and ability in sports using sports data. As a result, interest and ability in sports increased among many elementary school students. With full cooperation from the Athletic Association Rugby Football Club, it has become possible to provide more specialized advice and acquire and analyze more technical data, and the research findings are being used for the activities of the Keio Kids Performance Academy, which is held every Monday and Saturday evenings at the Shimoda rugby ground.
