U.S.-Japan Geography Teachers Hiroshima Institute by Pauline N. Sawai Kaahuku High School My favorite teacher was there in Japan - experience. She took us to a school where we toured facilities, met with students and talked with Japanese teachers. She shared lessons that are taught to students in their high schools but are new and out of the norm for the national Japanese curriculum. She took us through the countryside and we toured internationally known landmarks and national treasures. Being in Japan also allowed all of the American team to experience first hand the five themes of Geography: My colleagues could tell me a better story about location. By the time they arrived in Japan, July 27, Thursday at 4p.m., some of them had been up for 24 hours. We had a 20 minute commute to the Shinkansen, and a 2 hour train ride to Hiroshima. Japan was indeed far away! We traveled on many systems that exceedingly ran on time. You can travel by city train, taxi, bus, subway, car, ferry, airplane, regular train and the pride of the Japanese - the bullet train. We did lots of walking also. Japan is a very accessible country because of their excellent transportation system. If it's not there, the Japanese are presently building it. We could not hide! We were foreigners and it showed! We couldn't use chopsticks or blow our noses without someone staring at us. We were dressed very casual compared to our colleagues who wore ties and long sleeved shirts to seminars everyday. We gazed longingly at grapes that were $30 a pound U.S. dollars. We wrote on the front as well as the back of postcards just so we could use our 85 cents worth of postage. We bought cans and cans of POCARI SWEAT from the 1 million vending machines available in Japan.

After its devastating defeat in World War II, Japan recovered to become the second most powerful economy in the world and a staunch ally of the US. While the emperor retains his throne as a symbol of national unity, actual power rests in networks of powerful politicians, bureaucrats, and business executives. The economy experienced a major slowdown in the 1990s following three decades of unprecedented growth.

The capital is Nagoya. Originally the region was divided into the three provinces of Owari, Mikawa and Ho. After the Taika era, Mikawa and Ho were united into a single entity. In 1871, after the abolition of the han system, Owari, with the exception of the Chita peninsula, was institutionalized as Nagoya prefecture, while Mikawa combined with the Chita peninsula formed the Nukata prefecture. Nagoya prefecture was renamed to Aichi prefecture in April of 1872 and on November 27 was united with Nukata prefecture. Located near the center of the Japanese archipelago, Aichi prefecture faces the Ise and Mikawa bay in the south and is bordered by Shizuoka in the east, Nagano in the north east, Gifu in the north, and Mie in the west.
