Pick of the week: Week beginning August 15, 2011
Hello from Inside!
Last week Japan saw the dramatic finale of the annual national high school baseball tournament. (Congratulations to 日大三高:The Third Senior High School Of Nihon University!) So Insider chose the four videos featured on the iUniv top page.
Souzou Gakuen University
workshop 加齢発達学 10
workshopⅠ加齢発達学(10-4 骨を考える④)
http://iuniv.tv/top/episode/eid/69993/pid/4292This is part of SGU’s aging and developmental studies workshop. In this video, they compare the bone mineral contents of athletes from different sports including baseball. The correlativity of “axis foot” and “manipulating foot” are interesting to know, as it differs from sport to sport.

Events at CCC
Blacks Entering Major League Baseball
http://iuniv.tv/top/episode/eid/2192/pid/188This features Jackie Robinson, who was the very first African American to play in the Major League baseball. The lecture focuses on how he fought to achieve his people’s rights to play, and how his presence led to the Civil Rights movement. A very interesting and inspiring lecture to see!
