Research Abstract

In this study, a framework and a system that allow children to easily learn knowledge required for accelerating future sustainable societies. Features of the proposed system are senses of a game and participatory simulations. In collaboration with schoolteachers in an elementary school, a new curriculum that integrates classroom learning using the system and outdoor learning is investigated. Through educational practices, the effects of the proposed framework and system are proved.
