Rieko Inaba, Professor
0 student voices
The Inaba Lab studies better environments and ways of learning that make use of information technology. It starts from the question of what kind of system people actually want to use. The lab considers what kind of mechanisms are needed for people who do not share a common language to communicate. It also works on support that helps learners move from "I don't understand" to "I understand."
Aiko Hibino, Professor
0 student voices
The Hibino Lab studies the process in which things (technology) and groups change while influencing each other. When a new technology appears, how do people's awareness, values, and institutions change? Conversely, the process by which technology is made involves people's collective memory, rival technologies, and the environment specific to a place. The lab unravels these changes through empirical analysis of people's images and discourse, and of how things behave.
Kohagura Kei, Associate Professor
0 student voices
Kohagura Lab studies the modern and contemporary history of Okinawa while exploring ways to rebuild communities. Its specialties are historical sociology, community policy, worker cooperatives, and Okinawa studies. The lab examines the path that postwar Okinawan society has taken, from the perspectives of both history and sociology. The professor has written books including Posuto Shimagurumi no Okinawa Sengoshi (Okinawa's Postwar History After the 'Island-wide Struggle') and Tsunagaru Okinawa Kingendaishi (Connected Modern and Contemporary History of Okinawa).
Tomomi Mizuno, Professor
0 student voices
Mizuno Lab studies theories and methods for supporting the lives of children and adults with disabilities. It aims to help children and adults with disabilities live their daily, working, and school lives with security and comfort. This in turn leads to the realization of an inclusive society in which everyone can live together.
Isami Sawai, Associate Professor
0 student voices
Sawai Lab studies the political and diplomatic history of Japan and the history of international relations in East Asia. Working in the area where history, political science, and international law overlap, it conducts research closely grounded in historical sources. The periods covered range from the late early modern era to the present, and the main themes are politics, diplomacy, international relations, and empire and colonies. The lab has research themes for each of three periods: the late 19th century, the postwar era, and the present.
Takeo Suzuki, Lecturer
0 student voices
The Suzuki Lab studies the history of people who resisted in pursuit of fairness. Its specialty is modern and contemporary Western history, particularly German history, and it focuses on socialists who were active in Germany in the first half of the 20th century. The lab pays particular attention to small socialist organizations and their intellectual background. In parallel, it also explores ways to support graduate students in strengthening their teaching skills.
Fumie Wakamatsu, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Wakamatsu Lab studies how people use language when they communicate with each other. It is particularly interested in spoken Japanese and carries out discourse analysis of actual conversations. The lab has investigated where and how expressions such as "nanka," "e," and "eeto" are used in conversation. In the field of Japanese language education, it is also involved in efforts to support the learning of graduate students in science and engineering and of international students.
Kentaro Nagahara, Lecturer
0 student voices
The Nagahara Lab studies educational technology, mathematics education, and nonlinear analysis, with mathematics as its foundation. The lab values both research that thinks deeply about theoretical questions and practical research such as teaching material development, lesson design, and learning assessment. In mathematics itself, the lab works on nonlinear analysis of reaction-diffusion equations and multi-patch models on networks. Established in the 2022 academic year (Reiwa 4), it is a new lab, and there is room for members to develop research that draws on their own interests.
Masaki Takahashi, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Takahashi Lab studies the interaction between nutrition and eating habits and the circadian clock (chrono-nutrition). It also studies the interaction between exercise and physical activity and the circadian clock (chrono-exercise). Centered on experimental and epidemiological studies in humans, the lab conducts research in collaboration with researchers in Japan and abroad. Its work includes building a clinical foundation for chrono-nutrition, eating habits with a focus on the menstrual cycle and low body weight, and exercise and physical activity based on the circadian clock.
Yoshimi Takuwa, Lecturer
0 student voices
The Takuwa Lab studies the history of science as a perspective for continuing to work within the ever-changing world of "science." Its specialty is the history of science, particularly the history of physics in the 17th and 18th centuries, with Newton's research on light as the central theme. Old texts often do not record failed experiments or theories that turned out to be wrong. The lab therefore uses replication experiments and simulations to fill in what was never written down as it investigates.
