Learning of Tomorrow [Announcement] “What Is Seito Gakuen’s STEAM Education, Which Aims for Creative Learning?” Tomorrow's Learning of Tomorrow online symposium is titled "What Is Seito Gakuen's STEAM Education, Which Aims for Creative Learning?"
In recent years, learning in schools has increasingly shifted away from simply listening to teachers in traditional lecture-style classes toward problem-solving and inquiry-based learning, where students discover answers on their own based on specific themes or problems. At Seito Gakuen Junior and Senior High School, we are placing a strong emphasis on STEAM education as one of the learning practices designed to support this shift.
We are pleased to welcome Mr. Shinada, Director of the School Reform Division, who will speak about Seito Gakuen’s educational approach—which successfully combines cutting-edge ICT and STEAM education with attentive communication. We hope you will join us.
