Revolutionizing Education with MIRAI TOUCH

In Matsue City, Japan, the Tamayu Gakuen, a municipal compulsory education school, has embarked on an innovative initiative to enhance its ICT education environment. Partnering with Satsuki Corporation and Japan HP, the school has begun trials using the cutting-edge electronic blackboard, MIRAI TOUCH. This initiative aligns with Japan's GIGA School concept, which aims to ensure that students nationwide have access to digital learning resources. However, disparities in implementation across regions remain a challenge.

Background of the Initiative

The desire to create an effective ICT education environment at Tamayu Gakuen stems from the need for a more streamlined approach to digital technology in classrooms. The school has been recognized as a Leading DX School in Shimane Prefecture, tasked with pioneering ICT education in the region. The introduction of MIRAI TOUCH and accompanying devices such as the HP Smart Tank 7305 printer and Poly Studio USB video bar marks a significant step towards modernizing teaching practices and improving student engagement.

Introduction of New Technology

The devices introduced in this project include:

• - MIRAI TOUCH with ChromeOS™ Flex
• - HP Smart Tank 7305 Injection Printer
• - Poly Studio USB Video Bar

These tools have transformed the teaching dynamics in the school, providing an interactive platform that has elevated student interest and engagement during lessons.

Positive Impact on Learning Environment

1. Enhanced Lesson Engagement: The incorporation of the MIRAI TOUCH electronic blackboard has allowed teachers to conduct lessons with greater speed and dynamism. The technology facilitates seamless presentations and interactive activities that captivate students. Teachers can now print visuals using the HP Smart Tank 7305 or record lessons via Poly Studio, creating a more enriching learning atmosphere.

2. Improved Teacher Collaboration: The Poly Studio also promotes better communication among teachers, especially given the geographical challenges in Shimane Prefecture, where schools are dispersed. By enabling online meetings, teachers can collaborate more effectively, sharing insights and resources without travel constraints.

Teachers' Feedback

Teachers at Tamayu Gakuen have expressed their enthusiasm regarding the integration of MIRAI TOUCH into their teaching.

• - Emi Itagaki, a second-grade teacher, highlighted the improvement in lesson clarity and flow, stating, “Thanks to MIRAI TOUCH, I can explain concepts more effectively and the lesson advances smoothly. Its compatibility with Google services enhances the experience, making it user-friendly and intuitive.”
• - Shota Ishitobi, a third-grade teacher, praised the convenience of cloud functionality: “With MIRAI TOUCH, I no longer need to carry heavy materials to class. I can simply log in using my ID and password to display any materials I wish to share.”
