Under the school motto ‘Hard Spirit’, we aim to establish a fresh and energetic learning environment, encourage habits of good health, and promote a profound respect for humanity to foster future global leaders. SPECIALIZED COURSES Kochi Nishi Senior High School offers two courses: the General Course (classes 1H to 6H) and the English Course (class 7H). The English course was established in 1968, the first in Kochi Prefecture. Since then the aim has been to foster students who will contribute to the development of their local community as well as Japan and to the international world. In 2003 the school was accredited as a SELHi (Super English Language Hi gh School) by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science & Technology.

Research Highlights
Vol. 16, November 2016 Research Highlights Fishy approach reveals how things taste sweet or umami Okayama University have identified the protein conformational changes associated with sweet and umami taste recognition. Taste recognition occurs as specific protein receptors in the mouth interact with molecules in eaten food. The proteins responsible for tasting sweet and umami molecules are described as taste receptor type 1 (T1r) and are common to vertebrates in general, including fish, birds and mammals. It is known that the T1r family of variants interact with food molecules in paired up structures - “heterodimers” – Yamashita and colleagues identified the structure and to allow the distinction between umami, sweet, and other conformational changes in type 1 taste receptor proteins tastes. However, difficulties in producing and purifying these during the recognition of sweet and umami tastes proteins have inhibited attempts to directly investigate what interactions occur during sweet and umami taste recognition. Atsuko Yamashita and a team of researchers at RIKEN SPring-8 Center, the National Institute of Natural Science, the Graduate University for Advanced Studies (SOKENDAI), the Food Research Institute, Osaka University, Okazaki Institute for Integrative Biosciences, and Okayama University have now successfully demonstrated a way around these difficulties. They identified a fish known as medaka or “Japanese rice fish” as a suitable vertebrate model for investigating umami and sweet tastes. The researchers found they could produce – “express” – the ligand binding domain of the T1r2 and T1r3 proteins in medaka fish as functional heterodimeric proteins. They express the proteins in a glycosylated form, which is closer to the physiological state. The study identifies the conformational changes the proteins undergo during sweet and umami taste recognition for the first time.

Lack of Professional Staff ➠ “multiple roles” assigned to an individual staff e.g. Learning Support + Academic Advising 2. ”Job Rotation” ➠ Staff will be assigned to a new unit every 3 to 5 years 3. Lack of systemic professional development opportunities ➠Professional development = OJT Professional Staff (Ministry of Education, 2015) Issues in Higher Education in Japan 1. No systemic approach in academic advising ➡ Depend on an individual faculty/staff 2. No continuity in supporting system 3. No clear competencies and assessment base 4.

Accelerator-Based BNCT System in Nagoya University
Accelerator-based BNCT system in Nagoya University (1) - Project status - kazuki tsuchida Nagoya university, Japan Email: [email protected] akira uritani Nagoya university, Japan yoshiaki kiyanagi Nagoya university, Japan sachiko yoshihashi Nagoya university, Japan kenichi watanabe Nagoya university, Japan shogo honda Nagoya university, Japan akihisa ishikawa Nagoya university, Japan keisuke abo Nagoya university, Japan atsushi yamazaki Nagoya university, Japan yukio tsurita Nagoya university, Japan kazuyo igawa okayama university, Japan hiroyuki michiue okayama university, Japan shuichi furuya okayama university, Japan yasuaki ichikawa okayama university, Japan go ichikawa nagoya university, Japan A low energy proton reaction using lithium is one of the most suitable reactions for the accelerator- based BNCT, because a sufficient flux and good quality of epi-thermal neutron beam can be obtained by using a compact beam shaping assembly (BSA) and low activation of accelerator facility reduces the radiation exposur for medical staffs. However, metalic lithium has several difficulties in chemical properties (low melting point, high chemical activity and 7Be production) as a target material. For resolving those isssues, we have developed a compact and sealed Li target in combination with a DC accelerator. We have constructed a compact accelerator-driven neutron source to confirm the practical reliability and performance of the sealed lithium target for the BNCT application in the Nagoya University. Metalic lithium on the target base plate is covered by a titanium foil. Low-energy and high current proton beam (2.8MeV, 15mA) is passing through the titanium foil and irradiates the lithium (Beam power density < 7MW/m2). Strong turbulent flow is arose with ribs in cooling water channels of the target and have been confirmed to be able to remove high beam flux.

Modeling Residential and Workplace Location Assessment on Car Commuting Energy
Transactions on the Built Environment vol 41, © 1999 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 Modeling residential and workplace location assessment on car commuting energy S.MyojinO),H.AbeO) ^Faculty of Environmental Science and Technology, Okayama University, 700-8530, Okayama, Japan Email: [email protected] Abstract A model for assessing resident and workplace location on energy for car commute to work is dealt with in the paper. The paper consists of two parts : model building and assessing simplified location patterns. The model is composed of five submodels : location patterns, commute trip distribution, spatial distribution of commute trip density, road traffic speed and energy calculation. Three simplified location patterns are set to resident and workplace respectively, so nine sets of locations are put under assessment The study area is assumed to be circular. The location sets together with commute length distribution form respective spatial distribution of car commute trip density in the area The density is converted to traffic speed Car commuting energy is calculated by applying traffic speed-energy function to the speed distribution. Population is included in some of the submodels so that the model may be applicable over the wide range of population size. The model proved effective for the assessment on the whole on examination of the calculated average traffic speed against the observed in several Japanese cities of different population. The spatial distributions of car commute trip density are grouped into any one of bell, plate and plateau types. Plate typs is dented at and near the center and the plateau is intermediate between bell and plate.
