Following the March 11, 2011 earthquake, tsunami, and problems with the Fukushima Dai Ichi Nuclear Plant, mcuh of the Kanto area (the region including Tokyo and its environs) underwent scheduled, rolling blackouts to conserve energy. This photograph shows the desk of a teacher in Saitama. The picture can be used to illustrate the influence of the earthquake and power shortages on every day life. How do you think teachers dealt with rolling power outages? How do you think students adjusted to this situation? What do you think would be the greatest challenge if you faced rolling blackouts?
