Abstract

We are promoting projects in combination with Squeak eToys, visual programming software for children and Field Server, remote monitoring system for edible vegetation. We developed a Squeak interface with Field Servers, the remote environment monitoring equipments developed by the National Agricultural Research Center of Japan and installed throughout the world. The interface allows children to create Squeak eToys Programs easily that can monitor remote environment. We are preparing an educational program that encourage children to develop such Squeak eToys Programs and to discuss environmental issues with overseas peers using Picton, the picture language developed by Pangaea, the Japan-based nonprofit activity. Our project is backed by the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.
