SPRIX Employee Directory

For more than twenty years, SPRIX has been providing educational services to Japanese children, predominantly those who are not good at studying and who would be ranked at medium or lower levels of academic skill. This research study has indicated the differences with regard to learning in Asia and Europe and the United States. For countries within... Asia, motivation levels are high for the learning of basic academic skills. We also learned the different approaches employed in learning. We believe the results will serve as an excellent reference for countries where academic skill test results are not that high. This type of research survey, specializing in basic academic skills, has never before been conducted on a global scale. The findings, however, represent the merest fraction of possible results. Furthermore, the launched Test of Fundamental Academic Skills (TOFAS) that grew out of the research results has already been taken by more than 30,000 people in ten countries around the world. Plans call for ongoing implementation moving forward. If persons in other countries are interested in this type of research, and wish to assay and study ways to improve basic academic skills for children, we would be happy to work on further development.Read More
