Keynote: The Future School Project in Hokkaido
In April, 2010, the Ministry of Education commenced a three year Future School Project involving ten elementary schools across Japan including Ishikari Kounan Shogakko--Hokkaido's only participating school. The project involves promoting cooperative education through the use of tablet computers, interactive whiteboards and appropriate educational platforms such as education clouds. Kaori Maeda is a teacher at Ishikari Kounan Elementary School and an active member of the Future Schools Project team. She will give an overview of the Future School Project, discuss her school's involvement and provide examples of classroom lessons using ICT including examples of how her students interact with students at other schools.
