During the 1997 fall semester, the teacher education course at of Meiji University experimentally offered a comprehensive subject entitled ”Views on Education; to sharpen up the sensitivity for the human rights”, targeted mainly at the first year students who had studied” Principles of Education” in the spring semester. This series of lecture was done collaboratively by all members of the course staff and intended to prepare common basics for the students who take teacher education course. In this paper, I report the process of discussion which resulted to try this comprehensive subject collaboratively, and the position of this in the teacher education curriculum structure as a whole, and then, summarize each lecture and do some evaluation of this experiment. Through the experience of this comprehensive subject, I had a critical opinion on the revised Teacher Training Law and Regulation, as it depress the autonomous curriculum reform of individual university.
