This project will grasp the current status of the extent to
which topics about sex are shared within the home, clarify the
role of sex education within the home, and explore educational
approaches that lead to the prevention of sexually transmitted
diseases.
It will clarify the social and cultural issues surrounding sex
education in Japan, and provide measures to improve specific
issues, particularly the state of sex education in schools and
at home, and the need for parent-child dialogue about
menstrual phenomena.
Reports
【Reflection】
A team of university and high school students, who have been
continuing their research activities incorporating the STEAM
perspective since last year, took on the sensitive topic of
"sex education between parents and children" in the
digital age. The university and high school students
approached a topic with no correct answer from their own
perspectives, and after conducting research and discussions,
they presented their opinions, which received a lot of praise
from their peers and parents.
The university team interviewed local governments, parents,
and peers on "sex education" to organize the issues,
while the high school team took media literacy in the
information society as their theme, conducted their own
research on the literacy of the SNS most used by their peers,
and proposed the development of an app to help them notice
misinformation. They focused on the tendency for people to be
most receptive to information provided by their peers, and
even proposed a solution, proposing a solution through high
school-university collaboration to solve the problem.
【Post EXPO Initiatives】
We believe this program has helped raise awareness and
awareness of the importance of STEAM education. We will
continue to leverage this success to appeal to many experts,
aiming to popularize and establish STEAM education, which
fosters the ability to tackle problems that have no clear
answers through the use of ICT. We will also leverage the
collaboration forged at the Expo to expand and revitalize our
activities nationwide. We will strengthen industry-academia
collaboration to provide a forum for young people living in
the future to come into contact with cutting-edge technology
and science, and to create a space for cross-cultural
co-creation.
