when to use 講座/ チュートリアル / 学習用


I have seen many websites use 講座 (to teach something) but generally aren't all
3 terms the same?

Can someone give example of each usage?




Each has very different original meaning, but in a specific context they can
be used to describe the same thing

  * 講座｛こうざ｝ a lecture, a course

originally a lecture / course you attend at school/seminar (with lecturer),
however also referring to the contents (curriculum) when used for a book /
study materials

  * チュートリアル a tutorial

straight from English "tutorial" with the same meaningーmaterial for self-study

  * 学習用 for study (like in "material for studying")

a noun 学習｛がくしゅう｝ meaning "study, learning" combined with 用｛よう｝ the purpose /
use of the preceding noun

In case of learning materials for self-study indeed you could use the above
terms interchangeably, like "A course in Java", "A Java tutorial", "Java for
self-learners", but you would never call a lecture at the university "a
tutorial".
