Message to Potential Candidate to Ogawa Seminar

I believe that this seminar is one of the best place to learn theoretical and practical knowledge in educational studies. Beside learning how to conduct an academic research on a variety of educational issues in the class, we can get insightful and inspiring speeches from education practitioners from various countries and backgrounds who are often invited by Prof. Ogawa to come to Kobe. Moreover, I find that seminar members are very friendly, funny and supportive so that I can have a good academic life here.
