A Total of 40 Classrooms to Be Established This Year
International Lesson Exchanges and More Planned

The Jeonnam Provincial Office of Education announced on the 12th that it will actively promote the operation of the "2030 Classroom for Secondary Schools in 2025" to proactively respond to changes in the future educational environment and to strengthen student-led learning.

The "2030 Classroom" is a future-oriented learning space designed to address changes facing Jeonnam education, such as a declining school-age population, an increase in small schools, and the influx of students from migrant backgrounds. This space focuses on facilitating a shift to student-centered classes and supporting teachers in lesson research and educational innovation.

This year, the Provincial Office of Education plans to establish 2030 Classrooms in 25 middle schools and create a total of 40 secondary 2030 Classrooms, including 15 AI classrooms. Based on this, various programs will be implemented, including the operation of the 2030 Lesson Study Group, international lesson exchanges, the 2030 Lesson Support Team, and the 2030 Lesson Festival.

The "2030 Classroom" is not merely a learning space but an innovative educational platform where students can develop key competencies required by future society through project-based learning, AI and digital technology-based learning, and interdisciplinary classes. In addition, support is provided so that students can experience learning connected to real society through real-time discussions using generative AI, data-driven science experiments, and community problem-solving projects.

To effectively support the operation of the 2030 Classroom, the Provincial Office of Education will actively promote training and research activities for teachers and continue to provide ongoing support so that schools can make full use of the 2030 Classroom in practice.

In particular, the "2030 Lesson Study Group" will serve as a platform where teachers research and practice lessons centered on the 2030 Classroom, with 50 study groups scheduled to operate this year. The study groups plan to research and apply various forms of innovative teaching methods, such as joint lessons between schools, project-based learning, and international exchange classes.

The research outcomes will be shared and disseminated through the "2030 Lesson Festival." In addition, to support the establishment of the 2030 Classroom, an administrators' workshop and an edutech briefing session will be held on the 28th.

Park Chulwan, Director of Secondary Education, stated, "The 2030 Classroom will not simply be a facility, but will become the center of educational innovation that realizes student-led learning," and added, "We will continue to innovate Jeonnam education through ongoing research and support to lead future education."
