Production Technique Foundations
The purpose of this omnibus course is to provide practical skills as the basis for creation in project practice and individual production, as well as hands-on training with advanced processing equipment for use in creation. Through actual practice in discovering and solving problems in modern society, we aim to cultivate a multifaceted perspective that is not limited by expertise, as well as develop the ability to formulate theories based on practical interests.
Lectures and workshops
Information Engineering:
Learning engineering implementation methods mainly through information processing and an introduction to programming.
Workshop Design:
Learn the theory and systems of workshops and how to put them into practice. An actual design workshop will be your final task.
Behavioral Analysis:
Learn qualitative methods to analyze people’s behavior through observation and interview, leading to insights. These skills can be used to discover needs or issues, and to check whether or not a concept actually creates value. You will be expected to work outside of class time to create and present a report.
Statistical Analysis:
Students will be introduced to the concept of statistical processing, such as numerical analysis, and will learn how to conduct tests and other analyses on their own. In the end, you will be asked to solve statistical problems and confirm your proficiency.
Video Recording:
Learn the fundamental knowledge concerning the recording and creation of videos.
Equipment Training:
You will be introduced to basic video and sound equipment and have things you should be aware of when using the equipment explained.
Sound Studio:
Learn how to use a sound studio and learn about things like recording and mixing.
Design Studio:
Learn how to use the large printers, cutting plotters, cutting machines, etc.
Visual Studio:
Learn how to use a visual studio, as well as the basics of things such as lighting techniques.
Woodworking Room:
Learn how to use circular saws, drilling machines, table saws, etc.
Metalworking Room:
Learn about drilling, tapping, cutting, filing, etc. with metal.
Laser Processing (Innovation workshop):
Learn how to use machines that will cut or engrave materials by laser.
3D Modeling (R-Cafe):
In order to use a 3D printer, students will learn how to operate CADs and how to create 3D data. The application we will center on will be Fusion360. The application Rhinoceros can also be used. You will be required to produce 3D models.
3D Printing (R-Cafe, Innovation workshop):
Learn how to use a stacked 3D printer to create three-dimensional objects. It is presumed that students will have taken the 3D Modeling class and be able to create data for assignments or be able to create data for assignments in some other application.
Furthermore, to be able to use the sound studio, design studio, visual studio, woodworking room, metalworking room, laser processing machine, and 3D printers, you will be required to take each class and acquire a license.
To be distributed in class as necessary.
