Attempt to share and mutually understand childcare practices using wearable camera images

Abstract

　 In order to implement in-school training, it is appropriate to meet the three criteria set forth by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare.（ 1） It should be daily and continuous,（ 2） It should emphasize learning through dialogue, and（ 3） It should be based on the children present with them. To conduct in-school training that satisfies the above three requirements, we devised a training method using wearable cameras. A total of four training sessions were held where childcare workers in each grade wore cameras and filmed. As a result, we were able to share childcare practices and children's images from the other grades. The childcare workers were also able to use the knowledge gained through mutual understanding to improve their childcare practices.
