This course examines the communication issues of Japanese society toward accepting linguistic and cultural diversities. In particular, it is focused on the phenomena of the difference in culture, language, beliefs and customs that produce unequal power relations. Students are required to explore the aspects of culture and communication from critical perspectives to solve problems that arise from people of different linguistic and cultural backgrounds living together. Through the course, students will be expected to gain a critical perspective regarding culture and communication.
As computers become more sophisticated, faster, and smaller, including personal computers, smart devices, and wearable devices, and as they are networked with each other, computers become ubiquitous not only in the devices we carry and use, but also in the "environment" such as rooms, traffic, and cities, as an intelligent information infrastructure. "Ubiquitous computing" has become a reality.In ubiquitous computing, there are various aspects such as sensing of information about real space and humans as digital data, distribution of data through networks, understanding/recognition as "knowledge" through analysis and machine learning at the edge and in the cloud, feedback to humans based on the knowledge, and operation of machines (actuation). These functions constitute the "architecture of ubiquitous systems".
In this lecture, we will discuss mobile/distributed programming, location/context-aware programming, sensing, activity recognition, data communication, and other technologies, including actual examples and actual JavaScript programming.
The core of the human intelligence lies in the fact that people learn and behave in a "situated" manner, dependent on the situation they are in. However, how human intelligence possesses that "situatedness" is still a mystery. Past researches on AI have not yet obtained any answers, even hypotheses.
Although the technology about deep learning is expected to bring huge impact on changes of the world, it theoretically will not give any answers to this problem at all.
This is the PROBLEM the current AI is faced with.
It is a high and hard obstacle. As long as the researchers do not get some ideas to go over it, the AI researches will not get a new future.
Having provided about this problem of AI, this lecture aims to encourage students think of their own intelligence.

How do you hone your sense of system (software, device, appliance) design and implementation? Of course, it is necessary to acquire basic creative skills such as programming and fabrication, but in order to make the most of these skills, it is important to have an "eye-for-detecting real things" and an "eye-for-detecting problems" (a kind of appraising eye). This "eye" is cultivated by seeing, touching, disassembling, and tinkering with many real things.
In this lecture, we will analyze various software systems, devices, and appliances in a deconstructive approach. By doing so, we will understand the operating principles of each part (module) from a microscopic perspective, and the operating principles of the product as a composite of these parts from a macroscopic perspective.

In this lecture, we will discuss various aspects of the role that the media plays in policy making. The media is called the Fourth Power after the government, diet and judiciary. In the past, the media such as newspapers and television were the mainstream, but digital media such as the Internet are also joining here. However, because the media acts as a check of power, it also plays a major role in public opinion formation. The two roles of power checking and public opinion formation will also play important roles in policy making. Those in charge of administration and those in charge of legislation especially emphasize the power of newspaper editorials. In this lecture, 11 editorial writers in charge of the Nihon Keizai Shimbun editorial and signature columns will discuss the role of the media in policy making in their respective fields of expertise. In the first half of the 13 lectures, we will discuss the relationship between media transformation by digitization and domestic policy formation, and in the second half, policy formation and media in each country such as the United States, China, and South Korea.
Policy Management Studies is a "discipline of practical knowledge" that seeks to find solutions to the problems of society, in other words, policy issues, through practical initiatives.
This class will find "practical knowledge" in the "policy process". In this course, students will try to build a "policy casebook" that brings together various policy cases and knowledge related to the policy process, and create a new academic commons at SFC.
Every week different speakers come and talk about their own topics related to Japan.
First year students after finishing "Policy Management Studies" or "Environment and Information Studies" are welcomed.
Learning about various internet communication tools, search for their accurate usage methods.
Using social networking system, twitter, facebook, Instagram, the other online communities, evocate people's interest.
connect them, touch them and you will experience the communication (sometimes confliction).

In this class, especially, focusing network communications of local communities.
Instead of the traditional business model of providing only goods and services, a business model that embodies "making people happy," as Steve Jobs of apple pursued from the time of its founding, is now required. In addition, as the IoT penetrates society at an astonishing speed, it is becoming possible to realize a social system that seamlessly connects individual interests and public interests.
The medical field in Japan is based on a solid financial foundation with a good balance between the individual and the public, always incorporating the latest technology, providing the best treatment environment for the individual benefit, and realizing the public benefit of the world's longest life expectancy, which is attracting attention from the world.
In medicine, clinicians are working day and night to provide the best treatment environment, which is a personal benefit (value), and continue to provide hope for the future by fully utilizing their innovative thinking. However, clinicians always need to understand what the future holds for the patients before them exactly, which leads to choosing between SOL (Sanctity of Life) and QOL (Quality of Life).
In this class, we will continue to discuss the ideal future as the primary theme for all sessions, and each student will be able to draw a clear image of the future. Then based on this image, we will search for issues that society is currently facing and construct a plan to create the ideal future by solving them.
Through this process, students will be asked to make concrete proposals based on their observations of the natural world, using several social projects related to life, health, and medical care as reference cases to acquire the skills necessary for problem-solving.
We will examine how investment in education and health leads to the creation of human capital. Strengthened human capital contributes to performance, productivity and social development. We will also look at how human capital has been proposed to be measured and discuss what can not or has not been measured.
Human capital is a term used to describe the knowledge, skills, and experience that individuals possess. It is often thought that education, training, and development can help to increase human capital, which can then lead to improved performance, productivity, and economic growth.
However, when we look at the success of the Samurai Japan baseball team in the World Baseball Classic (WBC) and the respect that Shohei Ohtani receives in Major League Baseball (MLB), it is clear that there is more to human capital than just knowledge, data, and technical skills. This course will explore the potential role of non-cognitive skills in human capital development.
