The internationalisation of education and schooling is an important problem with which Japanese education is now confronted. One of the general characteristics of contemporary education is that within the scope of national education each nation takes the responsibility for providing education for its own citizens. More recently, however, we see an emerging tendency towards educational co-operation between nations beyond the framework of national education; and, within this framework, international exchanges of educational theory and practice, students, and teachers have become widespread. A number of factors can be cited to account for the trend towards international cooperation in education; however, they may be classified into two categories, actual and ideal. The actual factors, which include political, economic, industrial, social, and cultural activities expanding beyond the boundaries of nations, and the world-wide development of means of communication and transportation, have increased the opportunity for contact among nations, on various levels. Such actualities require, for example, individuals involved with cross-national contacts who have command of foreign languages, a good understanding of foreign countries, and other abilities necessary for associating and co-operating with foreigners. Today's education is thus expected to fulfil the need for the development of these skills and abilities
