In the area of higher education much of the international learning community has seen the worldwide prevalence of asynchronous Web-based online teaching and learning since the mid 1990s. In case of Japan, however, distance education has been based on synchronous interactive network technologies. Since 1997, an integral satellite network system, called "Space Collaboration System (SCS)" developed at the National Institute of Multimedia Education (NIME), has been playing a major role in Japanese higher educational institutions as a tool for collaboration among them. This paper reviews major developments in higher education environments and describes how the SCS is used by universities throughout Japan for joint classes, seminars, and international conferences. Network technologies, such as videoconferencing, has also a value for such countries where Internet infrastructure has not developed enough or where income level of people is relatively low. Through the experiences of NIME, the paper also addresses the effective utilization of such a network technology for promoting distance education and international collaboration.
