Collaborative projects with the City of Yokohama Kohoku Ward.
In collaboration with Takada Junior High School in Yokohama, a workshop was held as part of a social studies class to address local disaster prevention issues through systems thinking, design thinking, and data analysis.
The workshop consisted of two sessions and was designed in accordance with the process of systems thinking and design thinking, from analysis of the issue to creation of a solution proposal. In the first session, the participants first set the target user based on the content of the prior lectures and research study, analyzed the data obtained through the field survey from the target user's perspective, verified the hypothesis, and defined the problem. Then, the participants analyzed the relationships among stakeholders in realizing the scenario as a service and presented the content in the form of a skit.
In the first session, three classes of second-year students, 115 in total, participated in a workshop held at a junior high school. In the second workshop, six selected groups of students participated in a workshop held at the Hiyoshi Campus, where they engaged in dialogue and co-creation with university students and Yokohama City Kohoku Ward Office staff. Many of the students who participated in the program showed a change in their awareness toward disaster prevention through questionnaires before and after the program, as well as a willingness to apply the knowledge and ideas they learned to other fields.
