In this paper, the author discusses science education cooperation objectives and technology transfer in the context of Japanese government official development assistance on the basis of his experience with project type cooperation at the Philippines. The author suggests a clear definition of technology transfer based on his long experiences in this field work. New science education approaches are a major issue in the world, and in the field of the overseas cooperation, it is important to consider the trend of increasing value placed on constructivist and authentic learning. This trend would contribute to the innovation of science education whether in developing or developed countries. Design and development of science teaching model curriculum is the most important expertise required of experts for project type cooperation. This model curriculum is not only for certain ODA projects, but also could even be a good model to be disseminated at the grass root level utilizing soft loan schemes. The author strongly asserts that international cooperation in science education should not increase the gaps between developed and developing countries, but should facilitate their catching up smoothly at the global level. Finally, the author suggests the value to future science education cooperation projects of having good global linkages with international organizations.
