Education in Soka City in Progress

Education and ICT

Best Mixture of the Present education and ICT

The ICT is becoming familiar in our daily life, in the Internet search and in shopping.
Based on the GIGA school plan, Soka City provided tablet terminals (Chromebook) for all the students and the high speed and large capacity communication network for all the elementary and junior high schools in March 2021, with the aim of responding to rapidly progressing information society.
We will promote the quality of learning by making effective use of tablet terminals and will realize education suited to the potential of each student, so as to foster students who think for themselves and study on their own initiatives.

Comments by Students
How did you feel when you used the tablet terminal ?

I can share the opinions of my friends.

Mr. ISHII Ayato at Seimon Elementary School

I can make much progress in learning because I can look up whenever I have questions.

By sharing the opinions of my friends on the screen, I can find a new point of view I do not have.

I can feel the atmosphere of school.

Mr. ASHIZAWA Satoshi at Soka Junior High School

When I had the first on-line class at home in September, I could see the image of blackboard and could hear the teacher and friends, as usual.
I use the tablet for investigative learning at home, too.
