[March 19 Event] “About the Miyagi Prefectural Comprehensive Education Center’s Training Guidebook on Generative AI”

This week’s Learning of Tomorrow Online Symposium will feature Mr. Manabu Yamashita, Deputy Director (Team Leader) and Supervising Instructor of the Information Education Team at the Miyagi Prefectural Comprehensive Education Center.

The Miyagi Prefectural Comprehensive Education Center has released a “Guidebook for Training on the Use of Generative AI” for educators. Rather than focusing on keeping up with the latest trends or advanced applications, the guidebook aims to help educators take their first steps in using generative AI by gaining practical knowledge of the tools currently in use in society, and to apply this knowledge to enhance their daily educational activities.

At this symposium, we will hear about the guidebook’s overview and the background leading up to its creation. We hope you will join us.
