"Cross Cultural Learning by ICT" by Atsuko Shiwaku

. . .

I made a speech of cross cultural learnings by ICT in my classes.
I have suplied my students with International Education Project as well as regular curriculums.

International Education Project includes:
1. Japanese Culture Research - Traditional customs around us
2. International Video Conference
3. International Teddy Bear Exchange
4. International Email Exchange

The goal of the project is to raise the youth who have international perspectives.


. . . .

During my presentation, I was able to perform a videoconference between the room in Slovakia and my class in Japan, owing to Mr. Mike Grifith's big help of bridge-linking Japan, Slovakia and London. The link made my presentaion more active.

Mike has supported teachers in the UK and around the world to develop interactive videoconference lessons, and I am one of them who have got big helps from him.
