未来をつくるのは子どもの想像力と創造力: Nanako Ishido at TEDxTodai

Nanako Ishido is the founder of the child education nonprofit org CANVAS. As a firm believer in the importance of creativity and the power of expression in today's youth, she tirelessly advocates innovative workshops and digital education. In March, an exhibition titled "Workshop Collection" that showcased her child-oriented teaching methodology drew a crowd of over 100,000 people in just two days. She will give a talk on her motivation for driving large-scale change in education, a traditionally slow-moving facet of Japanese society.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
