Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the feasibility and problems of introducing digital textbooks, including the utilization of ICT (Information and Communication Technology), at primary and secondary levels in Japan. Hara (2015) previously explained and considered the process of introducing digital textbooks from the aspect of governmental and regional policies. In light of that result, firstly, trends in digital textbooks in Japan are reviewed. Secondly, Japanese schools that have already introduced digital textbooks are investigated and analyzed. Thirdly, Japan is compared and analyzed with Korea, which has a similar education system to Japan and has progressed the introduction of digital textbooks. This study focuses on Busan, Korea and Saga, Japan. Through these case analyses, introducing digital textbooks in Japan in the near future is considered.
