 Are western countries looking to Japan for a better way to educate their youth?  Japanese math textbooks are being translated into English and other languages and are gaining popularity in countries like the United States and Singapore. One educator commented that even though the books are thin, they are rich in content and have impressed American high school teachers, some of whom are using them in class. It has been said for some years that Japan possesses high standards of basic math education, but Japanese textbook publishers are nevertheless pleased to see that their efforts are contributing to the improvement of instruction in arithmetic around the world.
