- 100-school Networking Project -
- Project Overview
Servers and client computers, which are installed at about 100 elementary,
junior high and senior high schools throughout Japan, are connected to
the Internet in order to provide an environment that permits joint classroom
exercises, information exchange and network conferencing through use of
the network. The software is also provided for enabling students to access
and send their information to libraries and schools throughout the world.
Voluntary activities planned by each member school using the provided environment
are supported and the common use plans established by the secretariat are
being promoted in order to test the education and study beyond restrictions
of the classroom and to verify the results obtained.
