At FablearnAsia, which is being held this weekend in Yokohama, we conducted workshops using the “AgIC” conductive pen and the MakeyMakey.
Both were designed for adults.
I also gave a presentation and participated in a panel discussion on the topic “Digital Technology That Unleashes Children’s Creativity.”

Last weekend featured the two-day event "FabLean Asia," which highlighted the importance of digital fabrication in education. The nonprofit organization CANVAS held workshops using Scratch and Makey Makey, and I also gave a special talk titled "Unlocking Children's Creativity Through Digital Technology" on the second day.
