Operate your own programmed fishing boat using micro: bit. At first, we will concentrate on catching a lot of fish, but we will repeat fishing (program) while thinking about raising and solving problems. Through programming, you will learn what kind of fishing you can think of so that you can continue fishing forever and everyone can eat fish forever. ② Learn with parents and children Original ideas for making and thinking about social design! Parents and children discuss "memories of the sea" and "problems of the sea", and freely design social design notes to distribute newly born ideas using colorful pens and stickers to find solutions to the problems of the sea. think. He participated in a programming and social design workshop linked to the theme of "Protecting the abundance of the sea" for a total of 3 hours until the end. Let's put into action what we learned for the first time through the event, what we were interested in, and what we wanted to pursue more. (1) Sustainable fishery experience by programming I was able to listen carefully to the lecturer's story and create my own program with an awareness of sustainable fishing. We received many impressions about these two points: "the importance of protecting the richness of the sea" and "the possibility of programming". Every time I learned, I was able to think for myself and deepen my understanding of sustainable fishing. This time, I had a sustainable fishing experience in the virtual sea, but it was a good opportunity to take what I learned today as my own and think about the challenges facing the sea. (2) Parent-child learning Social design Various parents and children participate, from children who "study SDGs at school" and "searched about SDGs in independent studies" to children who "do not know much about SDGs yet but are interested". Did it. In the reflection for designing, parents and children enjoyed talking about memories of the sea, what they did in the sea, what the sea looked like at that time, and so on. In brainstorming, participants can cut out various prepared materials (photographs, stickers, colored pencils, etc.), paste photos, and freely think about social design notes to create the image of the SDGs of the sea. bottom. It became my design work. At the end, I think that learning from a broad perspective deepened by sharing it with all the participants. It was an opportunity for each participant to have a sense of ownership in dealing with various social issues such as the issue of the sea. Group Overview
