Aim:

How will the 21st century be? Again, it will be the era of progress in technology as well. What technology will children get in the future?

Let's encourage children to design tools of the future, which might enrich the earth in the 21st century.

Method :

"Let's design tools of the future. What is necessary for us?"

Please send a drawing of the tool with a short explanation of it.

How will children make the 21st century?


Designing future tools..

You could take the tasks identified in projects p05 Tools in the Past and c08 Tools we use today, and design a future tool that would be good for this sort of work. 

Tools might be for calculation, washing, cutting grass, keeping warm, etc.

It will be fun to compare entries from different countries.

If you have questions, you can e-mail me under iwano@lucksnet.or.jp
