[Learning Coach Pro]

01 Virtual Public School trains “learning coaches”. Since 1999, we have been training “learning coaches” who are active in various fields. It is a project that conveys the essence of a learning coach, which is different from business coaching. We cultivate hands-on learning coaches who communicate with real learners, not just desk-based learning.

Any time, any place, any person, any tool.

ICT is a technology, but technology brings people together.

What kind of learning will we continue to do in an environment free from the constraints of time and place? I hope to always be one step ahead and move forward with you.

We provide the above environment for “learners”, but we also free up space for “learning coaches” to work. We hope to continue to provide new workplaces for those who, for whatever reason, have not been able to play an active role in the past.

Workshop Seminar & Christmas Party: “Introduction to Learning Coaching in the BBCOACH Way

Message (Seminar Outline)

Against the backdrop of globalization and the sophistication of ICT, Japan’s educational programs will be required to cultivate “21st century skills” that directly link “basic skills” and “thinking skills” to “living skills” (ability to work autonomously, ability to form human relationships, ability to participate in society and responsibility for a sustainable future).

However, without the existence of “learning coaches” who bring out the qualities and abilities of children through PBL, it is actually impossible to lead PBL to success.

Since 2003, the BBCoach Project, which organizes web contests for elementary and secondary school students, has been working together for 10 years with a number of “learning coaches” to create projects that tap into children’s creativity, guide them on their journey of exploration, and bring a smile to each and every one of them.

Come and experience the endless possibilities of the “BBCoach Method of Learning Coach”.

Target

<To teachers who conduct PBL with children in elementary, junior high and high school classes and club activities

<To everyone who wants to learn the BBCoach method of learning coaching and become active in society

<Fathers and mothers who are serious about their children’s education.

<Workers and students who are interested in the future of education and culture in Japan
