Learning of Tomorrow [Announcement] “The Profile of AI-Driven Creative Talent and AI-Driven Creative Education Innovation” For the online symposium on Wednesday, May 21, we are pleased to welcome Mr. Noriyuki Uebayashi, Representative Director of the AI Education Promotion Organization (a specified nonprofit corporation), Professor Emeritus at Musashino University and Tokyo University of Technology, and Board Member of the Society for Learning Analytics.
In an era of remarkable advancements in AI technology, there is a growing need for new types of talent and skills based on the practical application of AI, and we must consider educational innovations that look ahead to the era of an “AI-ready society.” Furthermore, if we consider artificial neural networks to be the foundational computational model, the framework for information and AI education will also require a fundamental restructuring.
Mr. Uebayashi, who is engaged in initiatives related to AI education and innovations in learning styles, will share his insights on the topic “The Ideal Profile of AI-Driven Creative Talent and AI-Driven Educational Innovation,” focusing on the need to restructure future information and AI education. We hope you will join us.
