Other Roundtable Discussion on the Future Society Envisioned by the GIGA School Initiative Here’s what happened today. I was joined by Mr. Takaya, a GIGA School Advisor at the Digital Agency; Mr. Isozu, President of Sony Global Education; and Mr. Nakamura from the Tsukuba City Board of Education. I served as the moderator.
It seems we had participants from all over the country, from Hokkaido to Okinawa, so I made a point of facilitating the session in a way that encouraged active, interactive, and deep learning, with the goal of getting all viewers involved (*^^*)
I hear the response has been "absolutely amazing"~ > Mr. Takaya, Mr. Isozu, Mr. Nakamura
Great job, and thank you very much!
