Baton Inc. (Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Yosuke Kinugawa), which operates QuizKnock, announced that Takushi Izawa of QuizKnock served as a supporter at the "National High School Student My Project Award 2025 National Summit" held on March 22, 2026, at Showa Women's University Green Hall.
The "National High School Student My Project" is a program organized by the National High School Student My Project Executive Committee (Secretariat: Certified NPO Katariba). It allows high school students to launch projects themed around what they want to achieve or change, learning through confronting problems without right answers and taking actual action.
At the "National High School Student My Project Award 2025," held this time, high school students nationwide who have been working on My Projects gathered to reflect on their projects together with students from other schools and adults they don't usually meet.
Following the KickOff DAY on March 20 (Friday, holiday), on Day 1 held on March 21 (Saturday), 48 projects invited from 3,463 projects and 9,441 students from across the country were presented, and 6 of these advanced to Day 2, held on March 22 (Sunday).
During the opening ceremony, four supporters took the stage to pose questions, provide feedback, and offer advice to deepen learning.
Takushi Izawa took the stage along with Hiroshi Suzuki (former Vice-Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology and Professor at the University of Tokyo's Graduate School of Public Policy), Nanami Miura (Assistant Professor at Hyogo University of Teacher Education and My Project Alumna), and Kumi Imamura (Representative Director of Katariba).
After asking the high school students present about their thoughts and aspirations for the third day, Izawa stated, 'The evaluation of inquiry-based learning can sometimes be based on 'do,' meaning what was done. However, as the name 'My Project Award' suggests, we look at 'be' and 'become.' We want to see who you aspire to be and who you are through your learning. What do you want to gain by being here today?'
