He received the B.E. degree in mathematics in 1999, and the M.E. and Ph.D. degrees in computer science in 2001 and 2005 from KEIO university, respectively.\nFrom April 2005 to March 2008, he was an Assistant Professor of Department of Science and Technology, AOYAMA GAKUIN University.\nFrom April 2008 to March 2010, he was an Assistant Professor of School of Informatics, AOYAMA GAKUIN University.\nHe is currently an Associate Professor of School of Informatics, AOYAMA GAKUIN University.\nSince 2018, he has also been a Visiting Associate Professor of The Open University of Japan.\nHis research interests include multimedia information processing and multimedia informatics.]]><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Kazunari Ito, Professor of School of Social Informatics, Aoyama Gakuin University, has been developing a pictogram content creation environment, &#8220;Pictogramming&#8221; and its derivative applications. The URL of applications is https:\/\/pictogramming.org\/. These applications can be a programming learning tool for beginners or an information design learning tool. It was published and received a high evaluation. Since then, he has been awarded the Yamashita Memorial Research Award for 2018, the Paper Award for 2018, Information Processing Society of Japan, and the Excellent Teaching Materials Award for 2018, Information Processing Society of Japan. Furthermore, we are developing various applications that inherit advantages of Pictogramming, such as Picthon, a pictogramming derived environment for writing programs in the Python language, JavaScpict, a pictogramming derived environment for writing programs in the JavaScript language, and BlockPictogramming, a pictogramming derived environment for writing programs using visual blocks. We call these applications as &#8220;Pictogramming Series&#8221;. The Pictogramming Series has received high praise from researchers specializing in education on informatics, and has been widely used in the context of the social focus on mandatory programming education from elementary school to high school. In addition, we have designed curricula for cross-disciplinary learning of computer science from multiple perspectives such as design, programming, content, and data processing using these applications.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3411","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kazunari.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3411","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kazunari.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kazunari.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kazunari.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kazunari.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3411"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/kazunari.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3411\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4309,"href":"https:\/\/kazunari.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3411\/revisions\/4309"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kazunari.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3411"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
