1. abacus movie learning benefit is solving problems so far.

I would like to talk about a new learning model that learns abacus by watching movie and the problems that have occurred so far.
From now on, to learn the best curriculum in the world no matter where in the world
online-soroban.com has the only online small step-up curriculum in the world.

 

1-1. How to learn abacus so far and how to learn abacus in the future

It was common to go to an abacus classroom near my home and have them teach me.
It was common to go to class time.
The mainstream of abacus was to learn how to properly perform mathematical calculations when a child enters elementary school.

 

1-2. Problems of educational disparity due to regional differences

There were some problems in learning the abacus, such as the time and place of the abacus classroom and the compatibility of children.
There are various kinds of education for children today, and it is becoming difficult to adjust the time at the abacus school, such as attending multiple lessons.
The abacus that we can't learn, regardless of place or time, was an issue in the age of diversification.

 

1-3. From now on, we will eliminate the educational gap by teaching using movie.

Based on the concept of learning abacus in the age of the Internet, without limiting time and place
A site for studying abacus with video has been created.
On other companies' sites, there are some sites that explain the only text, but on online-soroban.com,

because it is an animated video that even children can understand, I explain it in detail one by one.

 

1-4. Abacus curriculum provider

The online-soroban.com curriculum uses ISHIDO-SHIKI's small step-up.

Based on 46 years of experience in abacus education, the Ishido ceremony gradually increases the difficulty level by dividing the stumbling points of the students in an easy-to-understand manner. This is an original curriculum that students can experience.

Over 25,000 children are still learning the classic small step-up curriculum around the world.

Using the abacus and mental arithmetic ability cultivated from the small step-up curriculum,

I have participated in the mental arithmetic world tournament as a representative from Japan since 2012, but the students and teachers of ISHIDO-SHIKI overwhelmed the victory and runner-up.

Have acquired. At the 2018 mental arithmetic world competition, a 14-year-old junior high school student ranked first, second and eighth in the world.

 

1-5. What curriculum can be learned with abacus movie?

On online-soroban.com, you can learn about abacuses from beginners to abacus 1st grade with the movie.

You can also learn about mental arithmetic from basic mental arithmetic to mental arithmetic 1st grade.

For mental arithmetic, the basics of the abacus will be over, and after completing Level 9, mental arithmetic training may learn.

 

1-6. Is the abacus only children? Or can adults learn?

Abacus can be learned by adults as well as children.

With online abacus, different countries around the world peoples are learning abacus at their own convenience.

 

1-7. Abacus effect by age

Abacus has different effects on the brain depending on age.
Here are concrete examples by age.

 

3-5 years old

If you focus on right brain training, it will be about the development of inspiration.

However, abacus is a physical counting tool which helps a young learner to learn mathematics.

As a general rule, the learner can be 3 years old and above.

Those who are above 3 years old, they may not be able to understand the basic concept of mathematics.

They will need to take time to learn.

But, all these are unique.

According to statistics, a child who has started learning abacus before entering elementary school.

With better learning abilities, will be able to calculate numbers as high as 6 digits using anzan.

 

6-8 years old

To ensure better understanding concept of mathematics, it will be good to start from primary school.

The reason for poor mathematics skills after junior high school is that there is no sufficient understanding of four principles of arithmetic.

To fully master the basic concept of mathematics and the four principles of arithmetic,

the suitable timing is to begin from primary school whereby they are able to absorb in a fast speed.

 

9-15 years old

The reason why mathematics is not good after junior high school is that there is not enough understanding of the four operations.

In order to completely master the basics of mathematics and four operations,

learning abacus from elementary school is the most effective because you can understand faster.

 

Golden age

Cultivate computing capacity, maintain training Training to develop and maintain computing skills

Senior

Concrete influences

1) Improvement in cognitive and communicative skills

2) To stimulate the pre-frontal cortex

3) Alleviate Alzheimer's disease, brain damage and the blockage of brain function.

 

 

1-8.Abacus ability to grow

There are the following six capabilities to grow on an abacus.
 

A.Concentration

The abacus must solve the problem accurately and speedily within the time limit, and no single mistake is allowed.

5 digit x 6 digit problem requires more than 100 fingertip operations.

During the calculation, you can recite the multiplication table 30 times and enter an 11-digit (10 billion) answer. In the meantime, no single mistake is allowed. As you say, "the fingertips are the brain that has gone out", you can see that Soroban learning raises the brain by fingertip training.

Concentration is cultivated by solving these tensions and solving problems repeatedly.

In the abacus class, most of the children who have just started going to kindergarten can sit still in a chair.
 

 

B.Memory

The "right brain" is overwhelming in memory. The abacus remembers the answer pattern (the shape of a bead) in its "right brain.

" By repeating this training, you can stay in memory for a long time and increase your memory.

There are two types of mental arithmetic: mental arithmetic (using the right brain) and mathematical arithmetic (using the left brain).

In mental arithmetic, the pattern of the answer processed by the right brain is stored.

This training is long and intuitive. In general, the memory method used for examinations (using the left brain) is often forgotten in a short period of time.

80% of students at the University of Tokyo and Kyoto University are said to have experienced abacus (Soroban), and there are some that nod.

Such "brain power" is acquired by mental arithmetic (Anzan) training.

The more you begin in childhood, especially in kindergarten, you will surely acquire these "brain powers".
 

 

C. Judgment

The ability to pair with "concentration", and it is effective as training for improving judgment and processing speed because it repeatedly performs the task of instantly answering in a limited time.
 

 

D.Processing power

In today's information-rich world, it is important to collect, organize, and process vast amounts of information.

The most important thing for abacus is how to efficiently input data in a speed game, and can greatly enhance the ability to process information quickly and correctly.

The numbers are read quickly without mistakes, processed by the right brain per second, and converted to accurate numerical information by the left brain.

From input to output through abacus training, you are developing information processing skills.

This brain power is an important weapon along with academic ability.
 

 

E.Perseverance

There are no tips to improve your abacus easily. As the class progresses, the path to passing becomes stricter and it takes more than six months to take it for granted, so it is necessary to repeat the practice.

You will develop patience that will be useful even after coming out to society.
 

 

F. Creativity

A research presentation by Prof. Kimiko Kono (Nippon Medical School) showed that the advanced level mental arithmetic of the stepped person uses the right brain.

It is said that problem solving / invention etc. occurs from the right brain, and the "brain power" that connects the thinking circuits of problem-solving in the shortest distance is developed.

"Fingertip training promotes synaptic entanglement and builds a neuron network," emphasizes Professor Toshiro Hayashi (Osaka Prefectural University).

The imagination to create a new system is the essential "brain power" required in any field. In other words, it is one of the "brain powers" that children must wear.

The abacus trains the input and output work using eyes, head, and fingertips to train the "right brain" that controls intuition, leading to rich creativity and inspiration.

Overall  
Online abacuses are being learned by people around the world at their convenience.
How about learning abacus to change the future better?
