下記の主な学生の声に見るように、講義はたいへん好評なものとなりました。

  • The guest lectures were insightful and gave me multiple suggestions for our project. Personally, it was a motivational moment when Fukuyama san introduced Sapporo Taruhi Matsuri, for which I was involved as a staffer in 2019. I also realized that there can be a truly inexhaustible possibility in giving solutions for Sapporo's winter problems, given that now I'm working on a very different project from Taruhi Matsuri with my new teammates.

  • Thank you very much for the class, this class is one of my favorites because we soul have two experts who helped us to improve our projects. I think that this time I contributed more to the team compared to the class before. I enjoyed it very much Takafumi Fukuyama's presentation. I think it was really fun and interesting. I also enjoyed the way he explained the topic.

  • Presentations by two lecturers were very intriguing and I learned how the winter/snow phenomenon could be turned into precious tourism experiences (with some challenges). I looked up the price for the Jifubuki tour in Aomori and it was 3,000 yen for an adult! To me it was a bit expensive but it also means that such experience is very valuable for those who do not live with snow.
