  Global Learn 2016 Limerick, Ireland, was an international conference which is organized by local renowned universities at their campus and sponsored by the Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE).   I attended and made a brief presentation at this conference, held at the Savoy Hotel, in Limerick, Ireland, from April 28-29, 2016.

The mission of Global Learn conferences and events is to further the advancement and innovation in learning and technology. As the educational world becomes increasingly global, new ways to explore, learn, and share knowledge are needed, thus the conference served an important role in fulfilling this goal. Global Learn also served as a means to connect and engage creative educators, researchers, consultants, training managers, curriculum developers, and others in the topics and fields in which they are passionate.

 I was fortunate to meet several interesting new people at the conference.
The Global Learn 2016 conference offered me an opportunity to meet and discuss research, teaching ideas, and to share our findings in a congenial academic setting. It allowed me to explore the meaning of my teaching research with fellow teachers and research colleagues from around the world. I was able to get feedback from attendees to my session on the ideal form of a learning management system, such as Moodle and Google Classroom. Among the other primary aims ofGlobal Learn was to attract new people to the field of education and learning technologies and, hopefully, help inspire a new generation of global learning leaders in countries around the world.                                         Submitted  平成28年5月16日
