ASEP reflection paper Utsunomiya university

Yuichi Kageto

The　ASEP　has been getting bigger and bigger due to the ASEP, itself really attractive for students so that we would expect newcomers. To me, it was a 4^th time to take part in it.

There were promoted IT skills in the room we had given presentations. ICT (Information Communications Technology) benefits audience something in many ways, including getting better sight and attention. I saw varieties of presentation, and some wore unforgettable costume and made listeners laugh. Others made Power Point like movies. I noticed one presentation given by elementary students. Pupils seemed to be saying that struggle against poverty beyond the countries in many ways of expressions. At first, they were appeared to show their skit and then, televising slides should be downloaded from the Internet, however, it was most beautiful presentation to me. Though they did not even talk much, I could receive some message from them. In that time, ICT helped their intention to say a lot as using pictures and a sound effect.

Following to audience’s attention, they use ICT in presentation because they are eager to make slides for its fun. Not only do students get higher skills of IT, they also learn to how to organize the time punctual, and organize the team. We gave a collaborated presentation, and so far we had shared our sites. So far we had discussed about who would speak out and which lines should be deleted or not due to the presentation times limited. It was tough to try to put in the order, however, we could be well-organized team for sure.

Finally, I would like to announce that homestay programme is really important part in ASEP. Even we enjoy shopping, eating, watching, we would know differences between countries. It brings us to realize that Taiwan is foreign country. But we also can find that Taiwan is neighbor country. I remark that point is really important and worth being family member of homestay.
