Distance Learning in Japan

Distance Learning in Japan

"It is estimated that the number of broadband users in Japan will multiply to 30 million in the next three years. Thus, it is possible that Japan will become the most wired nation on earth with affordable broadband by the year 2008". This article, published in the Tokyo Weekender, looks into why distance education/distributed learning has been slowly adopted in Japan. The author also provides links to educational institutes that are delivering courses to Japanese students and/or have partnerships with educational institutions in Japan. Important issues to consider when selecting a distance education institution are also discussed.
