The image used for the cover of the ACE-ID 2015 Conference Programme is from a woodblock print by
Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849). It is one of eight oban-sized woodblock prints in the series “A Journey to theWaterfalls in All the Provinces” (Shokoku Taki Meguri) and was originally published by the Edo publisher, Eijudo,in around 1832.
This print is titled “Kirifuri Waterfall at Kurokami Mountain in Shimotsuke” (Shimotsuke Kurokamiyama Kirifuri notaki), and features the Kirifuri Falls, a 75m-tall waterfall in Nikko, Tochigi Prefecture. The name Kirifuri (meaning“falling mist”) is taken from the mist sprayed from the lower waterfall and hitting the rocks.

welcome to ace-id 2015
Dear Colleagues,
May we welcome you most warmly to the IAFOR Inaugural Asian Conference on Education & International Development
to be held in Osaka from Sunday 29 March to Wednesday 1 April. This conference theme was created as a result ofsuggestions made to the International Advisory Board. The idea was to explicitly link education and international
development to bring together interdisciplinary and intercultural insights in the context of the on-going process ofmodernization and development through which many societies are passing.
We are most grateful to those who have agreed to lead the conference as chairs and speakers, notably Featured
Speakers Lowell Sheppard, HOPE International Development Agency, Dr Monty P. Satiadarma, Tarumanagara University,
Dr Keizo Nagao, NHO Sakakibara Hospital, Japan, and Professor Frieda Mangunsong, University of Indonesia. As well as
Professor Sue Jackson, Birkbeck, University of London, UK, for her work as IAFOR International Director of Programme:
Education.

Do please speak to us, to the chairman and the president about your ideas and impressions. We want this to be a
success, as we do with all our conferences, but a new conference theme can be enriched in the future by a wide range
of input.
We looking forward to welcoming you to Osaka.
With my warmest regards,

Rev. Professor Stuart D. B. Picken
Order of the Sacred Treasure (瑞宝中綬章), M.A. (Hons), BD., Ph.D., F.R.A.S.

Keynote Presentation: Becoming a Self-Regulated Nation through Education
The formation of the ASEAN Economic Community in 2015 will have strong impacts on ASEAN countries, includingIndonesia, which is becoming highly competitive at the regional level. The competition is open in all aspects - in tradein goods, services, investment, and capital markets. Indonesia plays an important role in the development of ASEAN
in the future because this country has huge potential, not only in natural resources but also human resources, witha productive population. To be competitive with other countries, the quality of human resources such as excellent
knowledge, resilient wellbeing and competency are really needed. Therefore, education also plays an important role inshaping and preparing individuals for excellence in various fields.

Unfortunately, the data from the ASEAN Productivity Organization (APO) found that from 1000 of the people inIndonesia, only 4.3% were skilled laborers in their field, others were just workers at the subordinate, blue collar level.
It is influenced by several things, namely education in Indonesia, with a growing population not evenly distributed,
struggles with the implementation of free education for all policy, up to Junior High; public awareness for education
to a quality-leverage higher level needs to be increased, so that the level of work as laborers, skilled and professionalin the regional and international job market is still a big challenge. In addition, education is generally performed moreon the development of the cognitive aspects by means of memorizing as a passive learner, not an active, critical, andself-regulated learner. The character of learners also needs to be developed to a level of metacognitive thinker, so thatthey can become a person who has truly mastered their respective fields, has creative ideas, as well as continues todevelop science-oriented or open employment with such expertise.

Monty Satiadarma

Tarumanagara University, Indonesia

Featured Presentation: Concerns Over the Indonesian Educational System
The concerns over the Indonesian educational system have been around the issues of standardized education besides thecommon financial issues. While universities have limited resources in increasing their standard of education by providing
research supports, elementary up to high school education has problems in standardizing the teacher’s education andcertification. Lack of standardized books of reference besides limited standardized educational facilities and instruments
have always been the issues being correlated with limited financial resources. Education is a dynamic issue which goesalong with the development of life. When teachers do not or can not follow the development of the dynamic of education,
problems may arise on the subjects to transform and the methods to be implemented in the educational settings.Teachers
may have a lack of knowledge on teaching methodology, the familiarity of teaching instruments, and the evaluation systems.
Only a limited number of schools provide training for teachers on teaching methodology. Many institutions have a lack ofattention on developing their human resources; rather, they tend to focus the attention more on the economic aspect andbusiness issues. Indonesian educational system needs more attention on the technology of transforming knowledge andstandardized technicians or the teachers who transform them.

development but it is a key building block. Once a family has moved beyond the need for the daily provision of cleanwater and food, education is the next priority within a integrated community development initiative.

Keizo Nagao

NHO Sakakibara Hospital, Japan

Featured Presentation: School Mental-Health Approaches in Mie, JapanThe current education system has been in place for more than 140 years and strains on the system have begun tohappen. Issues include non-attendance (120,00 - 130,000/year), bullying & harassment (84,000/year), violent events(59,000/year), special classes for the disabled (29,000 classes in primary and secondary school) and suicide (136/year
in secondary and high school in Japan. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. 2008).

ace-id 2015
featured presenter

Keizo Nagao is a child and adolescent psychiatrist, and his interest is in school mental-health, local organization, andchild psychiatry education. He has been a chairperson of the school mental-health committee from 2004 in the Mie
Prefecture Doctor Association. After retiring from the National Hospital Organization Sakakibara Hospital in 2010,
he organized a regional network in Mie Prefecture called MCMN (the Mie Child Mental-health Network), consistingof multi-disciplinary professionals including school teachers, investigators, child welfare staffs, health care officers, andpediatrician and child psychiatrists. It has regular meetings every six months. To learn more about child psychiatry foryoung psychiatrists, he translated as a supervisor the Rutter’s Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, 4th and 5th Ed. His
clinical specialty is on infant language development, PTSD, and childhood depression. His book Pre Linguistic Ability Test
has been published three times.

To challenge these problems, new mental-health approaches began 10 years ago. Students complete three kindsof self-reporting questionnaires (1. Quotient Utility-Test: The classroom feel based on recognition and bullying, andmotivation for school life. 2. Self-Esteem: self-esteem test by Coopersmith, 50 items. 3. Health Check: including
depression and anxiety, 55 items).
After that, the psychiatrist and classroom teacher meet to discuss the students. The aim of this approach is that theteacher sees the pupil from a view point of mental-health, not behavior and not disciplinary.
As a result, students recognized that they understand what they have been thinking and feeling. This means they
are aware of their inner mind. School teachers know what to do for the student and what they need to not do.
The teacher talks with the student because they understand the student according to their questionnaire results.
Additionally, teacher’s attitudes of the psychiatrically disabled improved compared to other teachers who didn’t takethis approach.

IAFORThe International Academic Forum
Academic Vision and Mission“To Open Minds, To Educate Intelligence, To Inform Decisions”
The vision of IAFOR grew out of the perceived need to fill a vacuum in the communication and exchange activities of the academic
world. Its mission arose out of examining that space and investigating why it existed. The vacuum existed because of the lack ofopportunity for serious and thoughtful exchange between academics, members of the global business community, and practitioners
in the fields of human endeavor that linked these groups together. In the field of education, for example, we have academic theorists,
educational managers (political decision-makers and organizational directors) and classroom teachers with their support staff in IT,
library work, exchange programs, and specialist fields. But how often do they have the opportunity to interact?
Moving beyond one particular field, larger questions arise. What function should universities prioritize in the 21st century? What
do businesses see as their contribution to social and global well being? How can people on the ground, trying to implement
improvements that will transform human life, best be supported? And perhaps above all, what are the agendas that will drive
mechanisms to enable these groups to interact effectively.
One piece of distilled thought that came from early exchanges at one of our conferences was the recognition that some of therhetoric of concern about the problems of developing nations was perhaps over-focused on the term “poverty” because it can be
defined only in a relative way. “Hunger” was put forward as being more immediate and itself a contributory factor to poverty, rather
than the other way round. One key to the hunger issue could be the provision of safe drinking water, or water for irrigation in somecontexts, while flood management might be necessary elsewhere. These, in and by themselves become valuable only insofar as they
help to relieve hunger in specific contexts.
IAFOR is affording opportunities that do not exist elsewhere. The base is Osaka, Japan’s great commercial and manufacturing hub,
one symbol of the emerging Pacific economy that is already eclipsing the long dominant Atlantic zone. Our conferences present
those taking part with three unique dimensions of experience. First of all, it encourages interdisciplinary activity to be expanded.
Depending on the field, this can face varying degrees of difficulty, ranging from discouragement to downright prohibition. Those
overly dependent on fixed academic structures often see lateral thinking as a threat. None of these negatives apply in IAFOR. Its
purpose is to generate new approaches that cross any disciplinary lines. The principle employed is to let the imagination permit
intuitive responses to questions. There are no panels of critics. There are simply people who want to listen and reflect. The model ofacademic work as potholing is replaced by the metaphor of mountaineering. While respecting the need for solid and well-founded
academic work, we feel the need to go beyond it from time to time to discover fresh approaches to old questions.
Secondly, it facilitates the heightening of intercultural awareness. Again, we encourage innovation through cross-cultural perception.
Cultural roots influence people in their attitudes more than most would realize or admit. The need to see and internalize insights
gained from other viewpoints is met by a process of steady illumination.
Thirdly, it promotes the broadening of international exchange. We may live in a globalized world, but in reality parochialism still holds
sway. The collapse of the U.S.S.R and the break-up of Yugoslavia led to the re-establishment of numerous former countries. While
this may be desirable for the peoples concerned, it merely adds to the world’s cultural confusion. Exchange leads to explanation andthat helps the growth of intercultural awareness.
IAFOR makes all of these developments possible in one gathering. Our conferences are not a substitute for specialist conferences.
We intend our events to be an alternative that functions as a balance or even a corrective to the extreme tendencies that can arise
from more narrowly defined research parameters. In short, IAFOR is promoting and facilitating a new multifaceted approach to oneof the core issues of our time, namely globalization and its many forms of growth and expansion. Awareness of how it cuts acrossthe worlds of business, and academia, along with its impact on societies and institutions is one of the driving forces that has given
the organization its momentum, and is making it a pioneer in this global age.

Journal Editors may accept papers through an open call, and proposed articles may be sent directly
to the respective editors. A small number of papers from the associated IAFOR conference
proceedings may also be selected by the journal editor(s) for reworking and revising subject tonormal processes of review. It is expected that between 5 and 10 percent of papers included inany given conference proceedings will be developed for inclusion in the associated conference
journal.

IAFOR’s journals reflect the interdisciplinary and international nature of our conferences andare organized thematically.
