Abstract
In addition to academic technical training, distance learning concepts must embody forefront global human issues influencing human security. The purpose in writing this paper is to continue to become more motivated by the potential for cultivating a culture of peace with the awareness of how much wisdom based technical knowledge is necessary to ensure humanity’s safety. Coursework from Soka University in Japan and an online network of artists from the TAP network have been selected as case studies to illustrate applied uses of technical learning in the arts and sciences building a global dimension to peaceful dialog and student driven learning.
