大学教員の学生対応への認識に関する調査

　Various schemes and a range of training programs related to student support are being conducted at universities. At A University, we have also established a cooperative structure in charge of supporting “Students of Concern”. In this paper, we present the results of a research survey on the faculty member’s experiences with, and perception of student support, and on the needs for training programs. In the survey, we have also particularly raised and inquired into the issue of what kind of support we deem desirable towards school refusal students. The survey was
carried out in February 2016, by means of a web survey system.
　Results revealed that 80% of the responding faculty members have had embarrassing experiences when providing student support. Moreover, although many faculty members support their students in a number of ways by listening attentively to student concerns and providing counseling within the department or at the healthcare center, they feel less than confident in providing this support. This suggests that schemes, such as training programs and consultations supporting the faculty members and allowing for a confident approach towards student support, are required.
