Challenges surrounding the educational field, such as declining birthrates, teacher shortages, school non-attendance, regional disparities, school management, and the rapid advancement of generative AI, are becoming increasingly complex. In response to these issues, the book re-examines problems from multi-faceted and structural perspectives, incorporating viewpoints of 'management' and 'IT' alongside 'education,' and proposes the future state of schools, learning, and organizations.

A New Perspective: 'Education Tech'

'Education Tech,' as proposed in this book, is not just about ICT utilization or promoting Education DX; it is a mindset that aims for essential solutions to educational challenges by crossing boundaries between education, management, and technology.

By covering diverse themes such as education systems, school operations, teacher workstyles, coexistence with generative AI, and regional cooperation, the book invites readers to think together about 'what education should be like in the future.'

Key Features
