A Creative Museum
AkeruE provides children with hands-on learning experiences, and creating works and solutions as a space to develop children’s intellectual curiosity and their inspiration (Eureka in Greek).
The exhibited works combine elements of a science museum where to grow people’s intelligence and elements of an art museum where to cultivate people’s sensitivity.
By creating spaces and offering workshops that help children participate in projects where they create works and come up with solutions, AkeruE will provide them with opportunities for giving shape to their ideas.
Furthermore, AkeruE will explore ways to collaborate with diverse stakeholders including young people, educators, and local activists, aiming to develop opportunities and communities for all human resources and generations, including children, to learn together and create the future.
At AkeruE, Panasonic will offer opportunities for children to come up with new inspiration based on their curiosity and inquisitive minds.
Relationship with school education
AkeruE is a place to try out exploratory learning based on the themes of the SDGs and STEAM education. Visitors can experience the cycle of inspiration, creation, learning, sharing, and reviewing, to build the qualities and abilities* needed in the coming age that are also key points in Japan’s new National Curriculum Standards.
*Qualities and abilities based on the three core areas of (1) knowledge and skills, (2) the ability to think, judge, and express oneself, and (3) one’s character and attitude toward learning.
