【Japanese History】Mapping Japanese History vol.1 and 2

The “History Map" will show you from rough structure of the history to specific details round by round, which is the opposite way of usual school learning from details to the end.

Find new face of Japan through historical background of Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara or Kamakura through Long ago, Noble and Samurai Period.

This course is for anyone who is tired of learning history through rote memorization. “Mapping Japanese History” will help you learn Japanese history through real understanding.

This method of learning has been taught since 2003 at my Tokyo-based school, Crea Academy. I would like you to join us in this "Trunk to Branches" approach to learning history. It shows you the main concept, the “Trunk”, first, then adds on the details, the “Branches”, as we repeatedly go ‘round and ‘round through the “map” of Japanese history.

I have a feeling your views may change, not only of Japan and its history, but also of the nature of learning itself and your relationship to it.

For this oversea version, my friend Amanda helped translate into English over years. Thanks Amanda.
