[Report] Teachers’ Gathering @ Obirin!

Reprinted from the PEG page, a programming education project promoted by CANAVS.

*********************************************

Teacher Gathering @ Obirin!
Today’s workshop is being held with Mr. Sasakura from Obirin Junior High School, who is also a member of the “Young Technology Teachers’ Association”—a study group primarily composed of young technology teachers from the Tokyo metropolitan area. Many teachers who share the desire to
“make measurement and control classes more interesting” have gathered here.A wide range of topics of interest—such as
continuous curriculum development, goal-based assessment, integration with laptops and tablets, and school equipment management—are being raised as discussion points and questions by the teachers! Are you considering using
Raspberry Pi? Would you like to join a group discussion on how to improve programming education?
Those who simply want to experiment with the Raspberry Pi together. Those who want to brainstorm
Scratch lesson plans as a group—and so on and so forth.
Our “Gatherings” take many different forms. We’re really looking forward to hearing from any
interested teachers!
