Abstract

Naruto University of Education offers an undergraduate class called "Awa (Tokushima) Studies", which is taught by twelve instructors whose specialties span history, geography, psychology, art, physical education, and linguistics. In this class, after studying the background and history of Ohenro, a pilgrimage route in Shikoku, in classroom lectures, the students and the instructors walk a part of the pilgrimage route on a one-night-two-day trip, in which interdisciplinary studies are practiced. This class is an ideal opportunity for teacher training and therefore can serve to strategically promote Naruto University of Education as a unique university in offering such a class
