In this paper, we 1) review the trend of informatization in elementary and secondary education in Japan, 2) summarize the individualization of learning in today’s educational policy, and 3) attempt to map the outcomes of educational technology research to the present day. The trend of individualization of learning in elementary and secondary education in Japan is characterized by the following two points: (1) the appropriate treatment of learning content, represented by CAI (Computer Assisted Instruction), which has been studied in the field of educational technology for a long time, has been put to practical use; and (2) the results of recent research on self-regulated learning based on the achievements of the psychology of learning that are now being reflected in elementary and secondary education.
