Over the past year, we have witnessed the value of technology in education. Technology has not only been an essential tool but an important bridge for learning when students could not attend school physically. Technology will continue to play an important role in education and we must teach our students to leverage its possibilities for learning.
An example of how this is being done across the Copper Country is the Japan Postcard Project. Locally, this project is led by the Copper Country’s Educational Technologist, who coordinates with the Tokyo Metropolitan Board of Education. On the surface, the Japan Postcard Project is like a traditional pen pal project but much more high-tech.
