［所信表明］

新型コロナウイルスの感染拡大に伴い、リモートワークやオンライン授業が加速度的に広がり、Withコロナ/Afterコロナのニューノーマル時代には、ICTへの期待がさらに大きく膨らむものと感じております。高度ICTが学生や働き盛りの世代だけでなく、子どもからご年配までを幅広く支え、より便利で豊かな社会を創り出していくことに貢献することが期待されていると思います。すると、今後の学会の果たす役割として、先端技術の探究はもちろんのこと、皆がICTを身近に感じられるよう、高度ICTの知見を幅広い世代に広げていくことも大切なことと思います。これまでの子供科学教室や学生会活動の支援といった裾野を広げる活動に協力をさせて頂いた経験も活かして、学会の更なる発展に微力ながら貢献できましたら幸いに存じます。

［Statement］

With the spread of COVID-19, remote work and online lessons are expanding at an accelerating pace, and I feel that expectations for ICT will increase even further in the new normal era of With Corona / After Corona. I think that advanced ICT is expected to support not only students and working generations, but also children and the elderly, and contribute to the creation of a more convenient and prosperous society. Then, as the role of the academic society in the future, it is important not only to explore advanced technology but also to spread the knowledge of advanced ICT to a wide range of generations so that everyone can feel familiar with ICT. It would be my pleasure if I could contribute to the further development of the IEICE by making use of my experience of cooperating in activities that broaden the base, such as supporting children's science classes and student association activities.
