Paper Abstract:	This study considers aspects of student learning style and the Japanese university education system in order to ascertain whether online learning systems are being used effectively. Using an Action Research method, I describe stakeholder concerns and interrelationships with regard to online education in a Japanese university setting. This study explores the possibilities and applicability of online education systems in Japanese universities. It is found that effective online education systems should reflect stakeholder concerns and suit individual student learning styles.
