Japan Prize (NHK)

Because of its special power to spread information and knowledge, television ascended to the role of an instructional instrument in the second part of the twentieth century, and its emphasis reflects that.

Adapting to the needs of learners in the digital age, the traditional classroom learning model is rapidly becoming more inclusive of multimedia materials, online platforms, and interactive content.

NHK Television has been at the forefront of producing innovative educational content, partly due to the inspiration and benchmark set by the Japan Prize winners.

This program, influenced by the innovative spirit of the Japan Prize, demonstrates how educational content can be engaging, informative, and visually appealing.

Unlike traditional teaching methods that rely heavily on textbooks and static images, this VR classroom transports students to historically significant sites, inside the human body for biology lessons, or even outer space for astronomy education.
