Detailed contents of research

In modern society, transition from a child to an adult is seemed difficult for young men and women. Especially in Japan, young people are facing serious problems with the working. It is time to reform the relationship between school education and employment. The main interest of my research, in such a changing society, how working young people do develop themselves. I have been involved in Japanese traditional community groups of young people (Seinen-dan) as an advisor. Through a variety of group activities, young people are becoming confident of themselves, building relationships of trust with their peers, and approved to local people. Research purpose is to clarify the process and conditions of their empowerment. There is some sort of reflection that is usually performed by writing and discussing each other, and the reflection is sometimes in the process of learning itself.
