PRESENTATION<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit\">On February 17, Shikata Learning Community hosted a Pre-Departure Presentation for a group of graduate students from the Faculty of Health Sciences who are ready to go abroad to Singapore and Indonesia. The students participated in READY TO GO ABROAD 12-week training program (one hour per week). During the training, they learned how to communicate using daily English conversation and how to prepare their research presentations in English. During the presentation session, the audience actively participated, and there was an engaging discussion between the presenters and attendees. Although one of the biggest challenges was responding to questions in English, all of the \u201cReady to Go Abroad\u201d participants did their very best to answer confidently. Congratulations to all of you, and thank you very much for joining the SHIKATA LC activities!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5313\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mdps.okayama-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/tempImage0sF2SX-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mdps.okayama-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/tempImage0sF2SX-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mdps.okayama-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/tempImage0sF2SX-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mdps.okayama-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/tempImage0sF2SX-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mdps.okayama-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/tempImage0sF2SX-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mdps.okayama-u.ac.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/02\/tempImage0sF2SX-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cReady to Go Abroad\u201d is a program designed to support students who are planning to study abroad.
