Participating
schools
from
various
countries
at Natural
Disaster
Youth
Summit
online
collaborating
learning
with the
theme of
"
Let's
create
global
disaster
safety
map".
They used
video-conferencing
and
English
BBS for
communication.
However,
students
and
teachers
who did
not use
English as
in Japan,
Russia,
Senegal
had
difficulty
in
writing
English
message on
chat
screens of
video-conferencing
or BBS.
They now
use
language
input to
translate
their
messages
in their
native
language
into
English.
