何のために研究するのか
Why do we research?
大学の研究室に所属してこれから研究を始めるけれど．．．目的は「成長」
I’m starting my research in a university lab. The goal is growth.
■研究や研究室活動は「教員」のためにやるわけではない ➤➤ 学生は研究室のお客さんでもない し 労働力でもない.
Research and lab activities are not just for the faculty. Students are neither guests nor a workforce.
■研究室/研究活動 ＝ 研究という題材を通して成長する場を提供.
Laboratory and research activities provide a place for growth through research.
■研究 = 未だ世界のだれも取り組んでいない課題に挑戦 ➤➤ 世界中の誰も答えを知らないことを意味する.
Research involves taking on challenges that no one in the world has tackled yet. This means that no one in the world knows the answer.
■解答のない問題にどう取り組むか？ ➤➤ これらの活動の結果として論文などの成果が出る.
How do you tackle problems with no clear answers? Engaging in research leads to academic papers and other tangible outcomes.
これまでの勉強は解答がある問題 ➡ 社会に出て取り組む課題はほぼ全て解答がない問題.
Up until now, your studies have focused on questions with correct answers. Yet almost all the issues we face in society have no clear answers.
最良のOJT(On the Job Training)の場.
Research is the best activity for on-the-job training (OJT).
■研究の過程の99％は失敗の連続
99% of the research process involves repeated failures.
研究の成功 ＝ 研究完了：そんなに簡単にできるものではない.
Research success means completing the work. It is not easy.
失敗の連続の中から成功につながる道を見つけるまたは作り出す.
Success requires finding or creating a path through repeated failures.
今後の人生で必ず必要となる解答のない問題を解決するスキルを身につけるための訓練の場
Research helps develop the problem-solving skills you will need in the future, especially for challenges without clear answers.
研究への取り組み / どう取り組めば良いのか？
Approaching research / How should I approach it?
●前提：そんなに簡単ではない / 研究の過程の99％は失敗の連続. A quick reality check: research isn’t easy. In fact, 99% of the process is a series of failures.
| ●とにかく思考錯誤してみよう. Embrace trial and error.
| ●多くの人と議論してみよう. Discuss your ideas with many people.
