Learning of Tomorrow [Video] Interview with Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Moriyama As we prepared for the GIGA device upgrade, the biggest challenge was how to cover the costs, but the establishment of a fund was approved in the supplemental budget.
As part of the GIGA School Working Group’s efforts, Learning of Tomorrow has collaborated with the Bipartisan Parliamentary League on Education ICT to convey the views of local government leaders and superintendents of education from across the country.
We recently conducted an interview with Masahito Moriyama, Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, regarding the fund, and we’d like to share the video with you.
We have also published the report.
