The SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) are common global goals that are to be achieved by 2030. The purpose of this study is to examine how special textbooks of local study and community learning in Social Studies of elementary schools can be used for local development with awareness of SDGs. These textbooks are often published by boards of education at municipalities. Teacher training workshop and university class were conducted using the special alternative textbooks in Koryo Town, Nara Prefecture and Kami Town, Hyogo Prefecture, and the results were arranged and reviewed. The results of these practices are summarized in three points. Firstly, the fact that the past situation of the local areas has similar aspects to the current situation in developing countries has revealed the possibility of "glocal" learning, which directly links local and global learning, is one of the reasons for active engagement in local learning. Secondly, this learning activity can motivate pupils and teachers learning about local and primary industries. Thirdly, it provides an opportunity to reconstruct local learning in school education from the perspective of how to make the future of the local areas. Through this learning activity, we can bring future-oriented and global perspectives to local development.
