What participants say

South KoreaIt was not easy to communicate real time with other schools due to the time difference. So I planned zoom conference and invited teachers but ended up with no showing. As a result, my students were very disappointed. I hope we can communicate better next time. Anyway my students have been very much actively participating in these activities.
