The Farewell Parties

Entering the last month of my staying, there are many parties that I attend. Among them are the Hiroshima Indonesia Association party and Cijeruk Farewell Party.

The Hiroshima Indonesia Association party was held in Century 21 Hotel in Hiroshima City on March 5, 2013. That party was sponsored by many companies which having branches in Indonesia or businesses with Indonesian Government. The party was one of the efforts to promote business relationship among the two countries. This party however is also a part of farewell program for those students who graduate and going to return to Indonesia this semester. Attending in this party are community of the Indonesian Hiroshima University students in Hiroshima, delegates of some Hiroshima based companies, and also many other invitation from both countries. Performing in this party are some Japanese and Indonesian traditional dances.

The Cijeruk Farewell Parties was a farewell held in our apartment. The word Cijeruk was originally from Chi Zuru, which is the name of our apartment. But as so many tenants are from Indonesia, the word Chi Zuru becomes Cijeruk, which refers to a place near Mount Salak, Bogor, West Java.  The Cijeruk Farewell Party was held in March 9, and sponsored by the Landowner. In this party, not only Indonesian community participating in this party, but also from my landowner guesses, from my laboratory room members and from Takeda Junior High School teachers and students.  Various Indonesian style barbeque, soup and dishes accompany all the guesses and the host chatted until noon in that sunny day.

Final Presentation

According to my feelings, my final presentation was little bit different than previous other presentations. In final presentation, most important think was to prepare presentation slides because of time limitation. But I tried my best to prepare every slide carefully and arrange logically discussing with some of our resourceful lab members. My presentation in JASME also was a good opportunity for me to take preparation for final presentation. Another most important preparation was practice presentation and getting feedback from Baba sensei. I am really grateful to sensei for his intensive attention in my practice presentation and valuable suggestions. I think I was well prepared for my final presentation. Before my presentation I was little bit worried and felt presser but I was hopeful and confident about my presentation because of my preparation.

During my presentation I did not lose my confident. Beside this I tried to read the facial expression of the senses and other audience. After presentation I didn’t feel happy, because I missed 1 slide to present within allocated time. I received only two questions from two senses. Their questions were not difficult for me to answer. I felt happy after getting some good comments about my presentation from Baba sensei and some other senses after afterward.

 I do feel proud as members of Baba lab. I am highly pleased to sensei and all of the members in our lab for their cordial supports, valuable comments and suggestions.   

修論発表会

 

こんにちは、野中です。

２月１１日は修論の最終発表会でした。

トップバッターだったので、緊張するかなと思いましたが、頭がぼーっとしてました。

ふわふわしていました。

しかし、先生方からの質問はするどかったです。

 

無事終わって嬉しいです。

他の研究室の先生から意見を頂けたのも嬉しかったです。

いよいよ修了だなーと感じます。

 

今月末からは愛媛に帰って教員研修です。

終わったら修了旅行にも行きたいな。

Coming Soon!

教え子との再会

約1年ぶりにザンビアに帰ってきました。

広島大学のG.ecboプログラムに参加させて頂き、
ザンビア最難関のザンビア大学にて約1か月間のインターンシップを行っています。

先日受入機関である、ザンビア大学内を歩いていると、
偶然昔の教え子に会いました。

その子には理数科クラブにて自由研究の指導をしただけですが、
高校卒業後ザンビア大学に進学し、今は自然科学を勉強しているそうです。

久々の途上国、物事が予定通りに進まないことや、
人々の理不尽な対応に心が挫けそうでしたが、
一気に爽快な気持ちになりました。

ザンビアの教育の質的向上に貢献できるように、
この1か月間頑張っていきたいと思います。

Collecting Data from Rwanda

On 10^th February is the day I left Japan for going to Rwanda after almost one year leaving in Japan. The travel was good and when I arrived to Rwanda my family came to welcoming back to my Country as well as my family. It was wonderful time to see again my family especially my youngest lady who was very Young when I left home (10 months).She didn’t even recognize her mom which chocked me a little bit .I was very happy to see my family as well as my missed country. Because it was not time for holiday of course I had to prepare the needed to visit schools as main target of my trip. For the first week I have to report to JICA, to my work and to find research permit from Ministry of Education and contact the District Education Office as well as Sector Education Office in order to away for that and help me to select the schools according to their placement, performance and to introduce myself before starting my work. It was difficult time because to find them as I prepared failed but I managed to do what I wanted and find almost hundred percent of results needed. Another thing I had experienced is how our cities are developed so quickly with new buildings and is very clean. On 23^rd March I left home for coming back to continue my studies one of my difficult time was to leave the children but I really thank God for helping in those challenges we had passing through. Now is time for analyzing the data and write the results after interpretation of the results which I hope with the help and advice from formal students I will finish well and on time.
