Ideafund Co., Ltd. (Headquartered in Tokyo; Founder & CEO: Naoko Okawachi) is pleased to announce that Naoko Okawachi was featured in the final installment of a four-part interview series with Dr. Ryo Kubota (CEO of Kubota Pharmaceutical Holdings Co., Ltd., ophthalmologist, and Ph.D.) published on Toyo Keizai Online, titled “Why Children Need ‘Small Unexpected Experiences’ Rather Than Correct Answers: How to Foster the Ability to Navigate Uncertainty.”
Why Children Need “Small Unexpected Experiences” Rather Than Correct Answers
This four-part series features conversations between Okawachi and Ryo Kubota, an ophthalmologist and author of “Myopia Is a Disease” (published by Kubota Pharmaceutical Holdings Co., Ltd.).
In the final installment, they explore the ability to navigate uncertainty and the environments that education and society need to provide to foster this ability.
“Rather than simply learning predetermined answers, children need opportunities to experiment through physical experience, make mistakes, and rebuild relationships with those around them. We believe that this process may hold the foundations of how human beings learn, create, and live together with others.” (Excerpt from the article)
