In the Spring 2009 edition of Education About Asia, the lesson on page 55 is worth a read and a try. I like the lesson because the readings are short and digestible. I could see using the material for a research project. Possibly by having students learn to access the Digital Library system that LAUSD has.

Since, I lived in Japan and taught at all levels, I would like to use this lesson plan and the resources as a model for creating a similar lesson on US-Japanese Relations and education. Of course this could be done of any culture that we are presenting. It is engaging because the students get some familiarity with different educational systems and learning methods.
