Announcement: Online Lecture on June 24, “NHK’s Initiatives in Response to School Closures”

I was truly impressed by NHK’s response—both in terms of quality and speed—in light of the nationwide school closures. That’s why I wanted to hear about what went on behind the scenes, so we’ll be welcoming Takako Nakamura, Editor-in-Chief of NHK E-Tele, to next week’s Learning of Tomorrow Online Lunch Symposium. Please be sure to join us.

By the way, we’ve been holding online symposiums every Wednesday since May 20, and when we conducted a
participant survey, 97.6% of respondents said they preferred the online symposiums to in-person ones.
So, we’ll be continuing this format for the time being.
