The work-in-progress report from From Stephen O'Connor (IPU)
My research project “Developing an Online Mentoring and Cross-Cultural Dialogue Platform for Japanese Academics and Students in Aotearoa New Zealand” focuses on conducting a comprehensive needs analysis among Japanese academics to explore their challenges, preferences, and experiences related to international academic engagements. In May of this year, I will be travelling to both Hokkaido University and Ochanomizu University to undertake the study as a result of being awarded a Prime Minister's scholarship. The study aims to identify the specific needs of Japanese lecturers when participating in global educational activities, such as short-term teaching assignments, workshops, and conferences. By examining these factors, the project seeks to develop an online mentorship program tailored to support Japanese academics in navigating the complexities of working and teaching abroad. Additionally, the research delves into cross-cultural dimensions, particularly the integration of indigenous knowledge into academic practices. This aspect of the project explores parallels between Ainu (Japan) and Māori (New Zealand) cultural knowledge, aiming to foster dialogue and collaboration between these indigenous perspectives. Ultimately, the findings will be shared through an academic paper and will contribute to creating more inclusive and supportive frameworks for Japanese academics in the global academic landscape. Please contact Stephen if you are interested in his project. [email protected] |
