sleeeping beauties


I went to a convention held by the Sustainable Management Forum of Japan yesterday. Held in Tokyo University's Komaba campus, it dealt with various issues regarding the environment.I was interested in ESD ( see slide below) and so i decided to participate. What i saw was professionals committing grave errors when it came to their presentations. Their slides, My God! many people were fast asleep in the comfy chairs( the chairs in Todai's convention hall are king-sized and soft!)and the lecturer just reads on and on and on......
Anyway, the educatioal system in Japan is slowly changing, but one alarming trend was the participation of industries in education. This might lead to schools
acting as grooming schools for the companies .
