Media Coverage [Media] An article has been published in the “Rushing Stream of e-Business” column in the Nikkei MJ! Mr. Fujimoto wrote an article about our programming activities!
We’ve been holding a six-part programming workshop series at KMD, and today was the project showcase.
It was really fun—we saw the KMD Space Invaders game, the “Repeating a Grade” game, animated teacher introductions, and more.
