Exploring Roles of Emotion in Learning Through Soft Computing
Bachtiar Fitra Abdurrachman
Second year doctoral student at Graduate School of Information Science and Engineering, Ritsumeikan University
Introducing International Students
Currently, there are about 1,000 international students studying at Ritsumeikan University. They are here to achieve their goals. The number of international students from Asia in particular has seen an increase.
Please take a look at the interviews for the three international students from Indonesia.
What do you research at Ritsumeikan University?
My research is focused on the role of emotion in education and lies in the areas of psychology, learning, education, and soft computing. I am trying to analyze and to provide empirical evidence of students’ emotional profile that is correlated with student characteristics. Information obtained in this study will be beneficial for creating and designing better learning and teaching activities. The ultimate goal of this study is to provide knowledge that will be useful as basis for distance learning where the emotion is not separable in the learning process.
Why did you choose to study in Japan?
When I was doing my master's research I tried to find a place for my doctorate degree, and I found out there was a professor specializing in Human Information Science at Ritsumeikan University. Japan has a lot of expertise in the field of Information Technology that I am keen on. Furthermore a lot quality universities support optimum learning. With so much international students coming to Japan, it will help me to have multicultural understanding and international perspectives. In addition, thank God, I was lucky that I got a scholarship from a Japanese company to fund my study at Ritsumeikan University. That is how I decided to study here.
What do you like about Ritsumeikan?
The academic environment in Ritsumeikan University helps me optimally to concentrate more on my research. Weekly mini seminars, presentations, laboratory seminars with Japanese and international students, and guidance from my supervisors have helped me a lot to shape my research and broaden my perspectives in my field. The equipment for study and experiment purposes is fully supported. Academic resources such as books, papers, and journals are accessible easily. The academic atmosphere and the environment are very conducive for my study. Not only study needs, other facilities are available within Ritsumeikan campus, from cafeterias, shops, travel agents, gyms, clinics, and any other on-campus facilities make Ritsumeikan University an ideal place for study.
■Future goal
I would like to deepen and expand the knowledge resulting from my current research with emotion as the main focus especially in education context. In the future, I would like to apply the knowledge I got in my studies in Japan to my teaching and learning activities. Lastly, I would like to contribute to society through community services activities based on my expertise I get from my studies. Hopefully the research I have been conducting later could make improvements and give benefits to the current methods of teaching that often neglect emotion factors.
