With many thanks to Doug Strable (a graduate of Royal Roads University’s Master of Arts in Learning and Technology now working in Japan), Professor Kenichi Kamiya of the Osaki Institute of Technology, and a team of Japanese volunteer translators, the Japanese version of Teaching in a Digital Age is now available from the BCcampus web site.
Teaching in a Digital Age is now published in nine languages, all available from here, and there are several other language versions at this moment undergoing translation, including Arabic, Croatian and Russian.
The book has now been downloaded over 500,000 times from various sites since 2016. If anyone wants to understand the force of open publishing and the commitment of people around the world to making knowledge freely available, look no further than this.
