“Innovative Learning Awards” to Be Held

"Innovative Learning Awards" to Be Held!

Rapid technological innovation in the 21st century is significantly transforming the nature of education.In an era that transcends the traditional framework of school education—where learners take the lead and learning increasingly takes place in communities outside of school and in digital spaces—there is a growing need to design learning environments that place all learners at the center. This award emphasizes the realization of designs that empower all learners to take the lead and recognizes the importance of establishing “Learning of Tomorrow” spaces that transcend the boundaries of traditional schools. Its objectives are to realize a society where people of all generations continue learning throughout their lives and to create new learning environments that will lead the future of education.

We look forward to receiving many applications.
