Trial FD Workshop for Improving College Teacher Pedagogical Techniques

University faculty members have accumulated and reinforced their own teaching methods based on educational experiences from their university lessons because they have no experience with teacher training courses at university. Therefore, their techniques depend to a great degree on personal experience. To resolve these difficulties, the authors attempt to arrange a practical FD workshop at which a seminar lecturer of a private company conducts a self-development seminar for students of our college, with faculty members observing the seminar. After the workshop, seminar lecturers and faculty members discussed "What you were intending to do" and the impressions of faculty members’ observations.
