虽然通过适当调整信息和通信技术（信通技术）可以改善大学的教育质量和管理，但由于难以评估其有效性和技术的迅速进步，很难规划长期的和整个大学的信通技术战略。沿着本校的ICT长期计划（称为校园信息系统综合计划），多媒体与信息技术中心（CMIT）于2002年启动。经过对ICT环境的多次调查和测试（2002-2003年），该中心推出了与学生信息系统相结合的校园LMS，并于2004年开始使用该系统开展多种类型的大或小规模和校内或校外课程。这些经验使我们得出结论，电子学习的专业人员（不幸的是，在日本缺乏教学设计师）和校园范围内的电子学习支持是提高电子学习课程的质量和数量的关键。随后，教学系统研究生院（GSIS）和电子学习发展研究所（IELD）分别于2006年和2007年成立。GSIS是日本第一个为企业和高等教育电子学习专家提供的100%在线课程。它的硕士和博士课程教学系统强调四个专业领域;教学设计，信息技术，教学管理和知识产权。IELD旨在加速电子学习的研究和实践，包括校园范围内的电子学习支持服务的作用。这些活动为远程和混合课程以及综合电子学习系统带来了有效的内容，如学习管理系统、学习门户网站、学习档案袋、计算机辅助语言学习系统和其他通过单一登录大学门户网站定制的系统。
Although the quality of education and the management of the university can be improved through the appropriate adaptation of Information and Communications Technology (ICT), it would be difficult to plan long-term and university-wide ICT strategies because of the difficulty of evaluating their effectiveness and the rapid technological progress. Along with our university's long-term ICT plan (called the Integrated Campus Information System Plan), the Center for Multimedia and Information Technologies (CMIT) was started in 2002. After several investigations and testing of ICT environments (2002-2003), the Center introduced campus-wide LMS integrated with the student information system, and many types of largeor smallscale and onor offcampus courses began in 2004, using the system. These experiences lead us to conclude that e-Learning professionals (unfortunately there is a lack of instructional designers in Japan) and campus-wide e-Learning supports are keys to improving e-Learning courses, both qualitatively and quantitatively. Subsequently the Graduate School of Instructional Systems (GSIS) and the Institute for eLearning Development (IELD) were established in 2006 and 2007 respectively. GSIS is the Japan’s first 100% on-line program for e-Learning specialists in corporate and higher education. Its Master and PhD programs in Instructional Systems emphasize four areas of expertise; Instructional Design, Information Technology, Instructional Management, and Intellectual Property. IELD aims to accelerate e-Learning research and practices, including the role of campus-wide e-Learning support services. These activities are bringing effective contents for distanceand blendedcourses and integrated e-Learning systems such as LMSs, learning portals, learning portfolios, computer-assisted language learning systems and other custommade systems through a single sign-on university portal.
