Other Research Presentation Session at the Shibuya Ward ICT Education Model School (Yoyogi Yamaya Elementary School) I'm about to attend the research presentation at Yoyogi Yamaya Elementary School, a Shibuya Ward ICT Education Model School. I hear nearly 500 people are attending. That's amazing.
I’ll be speaking at a symposium alongside Director Yasuhiko from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT), Professor Nakagawa from the Open University of Japan, and Professor Sato from Kanazawa Seiryo University.
I feel like Director Yasuhiko is the person I’ve met with the most since the start of 2018.
