Japan will allow schools to exclusively use digital textbooks starting from 2030

A working group of Japan’s Ministry of Education has proposed allowing schools to exclusively use digital textbooks starting around the 2030 school year. According to a document presented at the working group meeting, local education boards will be able to choose between traditional printed textbooks and digital textbooks to be used in schools.

Currently, digital versions of printed textbooks, installed on tablet computers with additional video and audio information, are being used as supplementary materials for English and math classes for students in fifth to ninth grades, starting this school year, which began in April 2024.

The working group of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology will discuss whether schools will be allowed to use both printed and digital textbooks in the same classes before preparing a provisional report by the end of March.
