Online Workshops for Lesson Study 2.0: Unplugged Computational Thinking in APEC Economies
APEC-TSUKUBA INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE XVII
First Workshop: Unplugged Computational Thinking at Primary Education
18 April 2024 Hosted by the University of Tsukuba, Tokyo, Japan
On the Era of Generative AI, the project proposed by Thailand and Japan promotes the Education to develop computational thinking (CT). Here, CT is the ways of thinking for problem solving with using Generative AI which works on Natural language. Since 2006, Japan and Thailand have been engaged in APEC Lesson Study project in relation to APEC HRDWG Education network issues and established APEC Lesson Study Network. It also co-proposed with Chile (2019) and Malaysia (2020). It produced the Curriculum Reform Recommendations for CT in APEC (2021) through overcoming COVID-19.
This workshop planned on these bases.
First Workshop is hosted by University of Tsukuba, Japan. Objective is to promote the educational actions in APEC region to unplug CT at Primary School Level. It will answer the following questions for teaching practice at Primary Level:
“How can we develop computational thinking without using computers?”
“What basic informatics content is suitable for primary school level?”
“How can we fit these lessons into our curriculum schedules?”
In relation to this project with collaboration of Lesson Study Network members, Japan, Chile and Thailand members prepared the booklet ‘Unplugged Computational Thinking’ with collaboration of Indonesia and Malaysia members. This first workshop uses it to demonstrate the way to develop computational thinking without computer and with computer at Primary School Level and promotes Lesson Study on the issue in APEC: It provides a strategy to overcoming Digital Divide.
It is preparation of the second workshop which will be hosted by Khon Kaen University, Thailand, as for the implementation of Lesson Study.
Participants participate in online through the recommendations of each economy.
This announcement will be announced through Focal points-members on HRDWG, Education Network in each economy from APEC Secretariat.
Members in each economy recommend the participants to the host of workshop:
Host: CRICED, University of Tsukuba, Japan
Project Overseer: Masami Isoda, Prof/PhD/Director
Contact: Ms. Nao Ishihara; criced@un.tsukuba.ac.jp
If we received the recommendation until 16 April 2024 on the timeline of economy, the host will send the meeting URL.
Participants needs to accept the recording of the workshop and re-use of recorded video by free if they would like to participate the workshop.
