  • Never Gonna Fall for Modern Love
    Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Japanskt mál og menning Never Gonna Fall for Modern Love The Negative Population Growth of Japan Explored Ritgerð til BA-prófs Sunna Axelsdóttir Kt.: 151092-2929 Leiðbeinandi: Gunnella Þorgeirsdóttir Maí 2015 Abstract The main purpose of this essay is to attempt to shed light on possible underlying causes behind the drastic negative population growth in Japan. Additionally, similar trends of negative population growth around the world will be looked at, in light of the situation in Japan. The first chapter of this essay provides a brief outline of statistics both from Japan and other countries showing the development of the birth rate in those regions. Following the outline is a subchapter which aims to explain the statistics, and subsequently outline the consequences of negative population growth on the planet and the economy. Through this analysis of statistical data the goal is to gain insight into possible problems the governments of various countries are facing. The second chapter explores how various social changes within the Japanese society have affected the birth rate in Japan. The third chapter attempts to describe the sexual behavior of the younger generations in Japan today, as well as explore the various services many in Japan have begun to use as substitutes for relationships, contemplating whether these factors can be linked with the declining birth rate. The fourth and final chapter discusses the Japanese government’s methods and attempts to increase the birthrate. These methods are then compared with measures taken by other nations with similar problems. 1 Table of Contents Abstract.................................................................................Error!

  • Introduction
    Introduction The Ohio Japan Project began in the mid-1980’s when Ohio agreed to join with Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin to form The Great Lakes in the Schools Project, funded by the U.S.-Japan Foundation. The members of the project from Ohio developed a series of lessons on Japan. During a trip to Japan in 1988, the Ohio team discussed these lessons with educators in Japan and had them formally critiqued by the International Society for Educational Information, Inc. in Tokyo. The society published a version of the lessons in Japan, while in Ohio they were published as Learning About Our World: Japan. Again with funding form the U.S.-Japan Foundation, the Ohio Japan Project sent a delegation of teachers in Ohio to Japan for two weeks in June-July, 2001. While there, the teachers gathered information to update the lessons previously published and to develop new ones, which reflect more current developments in Japan. Before and during the trip to Japan, the participants spent a great deal of time studying how the Japanese develop lessons that enhance deeper understanding by the students of the concepts to be taught. These lessons reflect the way Japanese teachers construct their lessons to accomplish that deeper level of knowledge and skill development. In this way, students retain the information for a longer period of time, which will help them be more successful on the future state achievement tests and the Ohio Graduation Test. The original publication of lessons identified the connections to the social studies and foreign languages curriculum models.
