概要 | Descriptions:

👩🏽‍🎓Class is in session! Please join Robotics x Tokyo again for another wonderful panel discussion + audience Q&A + networking 🗣️ featuring some of the brightest and kindest individuals shaping the minds of Tokyo’s youth. Representatives from Tokyo Coding Club (TCC), TERAKOYA Program, and Dr. Tech will attend! 🙌🏼

For this session, we will discuss, in depth, the topic of STREAM (Science, Technology, Robotics, Engineering, Art, Math) Education in Japan: what the current state of it is, how that compares to other countries, and what can be done to improve it, assuming it needs improvement (no spoilers!). 😉

🌟 This event will be graciously sponsored with limited food and refreshments courtesy of the kind folks at TokyoDev. Please do check them out and enjoy!

Here is our rough agenda for the evening:

▶ 18:00–18:10 (10 min) Opening & Speaker Introductions
▶ 18:10–18:25 (15 min) Section ❶: The Current State of STREAM Education in Japan
▶ 18:25–18:40 (15 min) Section ❷: Each Organization's Approach to Education
▶ 18:40–18:50 (10 min) Section ❸: The Future of Japan & Our Hopes for the Next Generation

  • The role of anime, manga, and games in inspiring young people toward robotics
  • The impact of recent events such as SusHi Tech and the Humanoid Summit
  • A message to the students in the audience!

▶ 18:50–19:00 (10 min) Q&A & Closing
▶ 19:00 onward (~2hr) Socializing, networking, food & drinks courtesy of TokyoDev

Finally, an important note that we will be continuing the momentum from the session immediately prior, organized by our friends at EN Innovation who are hosting 22 high school students from India participating in a very special robotics immersion program!

Please feel free to join their wonderful event as well!
