The Digital Agency, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry have formulated a roadmap for utilizing educational data to realize optimal learning for each individual by digitizing education. The target is presented for the short term until around 2022, the medium term until around 2025, and the long term until around 2030.
According to the Digital Agency, the Roadmap positions the goal of digitization of education as "a society where anyone can learn in their own way, anytime, anywhere, with anyone," and the range, quality, and combination of data required for that purpose. I set the axis.On top of that, the overall design of educational data distribution and accumulation is shown.
In addition, he presented the ideal form of data utilization divided into short-term, medium-term, and long-term.
In the short term, in principle, surveys and procedures targeting educational sites will be made online, and office work will be digitized, the network environment will be improved, and basic items of educational data will be standardized.
In the medium term, learners will use terminals in principle, and will be able to collect logs for the utilization of educational data and realize data linkage between schools and local governments.
In the long term, it will enable learners to accumulate and utilize their own data throughout their lives, standardize the content and activity information more deeply, and provide support to children in need.
As a result, the government's goal of truly individualized and optimal learning and collaborative learning can be achieved.
As for universities, we will promote the digitization of academic achievement certificates (graduation certificates, grade certificates, etc.), which are the points of connection to society, as the beginning of improving the environment for lifelong learning.In addition, we will study how open badges should be as a tool to visualize the results of learning, improve the portability and convenience of learners, improve the efficiency and productivity of universities, etc., and realize the internationalization of universities, etc. ..
Shibaura Institute of Technology has already started digitizing some certificates from October 2021, and plans to start digital issuance of all certificates from April 10.In addition, International Christian University will digitize the certificate of completion of summer Japanese language education (summer course) from April 2022, and will issue all certificates including graduation certificates and transcripts digitally from April 4. I am aiming to do it.
