Development of Multimedia Materials for Regional Studies

这项研究的目的是开发一个多媒体数据库（多媒体材料），供中小学的区域研究使用。具体来说，我们计划数据库由两部分组成，即长崎的历史和时事。今年，我们在前一年收集资料的基础上完成了数据库。其内容如下：1)第一部分：长崎历史这部分由“长崎海道”、“长崎海道Ver.2”、“长崎武村”、“长崎原子弹”四个历史教学软件组成。《长崎海道》介绍了融合了欧洲、中国和日本文化的长崎生活文化。《长崎海道2》以西博尔德（Philipp Franz von Siebold, 1796-1866）的著作《江户三浦- kikou》（Reise nach dem Hofe des Sjogun im Jahre 1826）为基础，模拟了西博尔德（Philipp Franz von Siebold, 1796-1866）前往江户（1826）的旅行。“长崎Burabura”是长崎市的历史景点指南，如以“大熊池祭”而闻名的水和神社。“长崎原子弹”是一个关于长崎原子弹的和平学习多媒体材料。2)第二部分：长崎时事。这部分由三个社会研究软件组成，分别是“长崎自来水厂”、“长崎污水系统”和“长崎渔业”。《长崎自来水厂》包含了长崎市自来水厂的年表和许多统计数据。“长崎污水系统”的构建方式与前者相同，并从环境教育的角度增加了内容。“长崎的渔业”介绍了长崎市的渔业，从沿海渔业到水产养殖。不幸的是，上述材料无法在附近的学校使用，因为这些材料的运行系统与这些学校的运行系统不匹配。所以我们把其中的一些用HTML翻译成WWW页面，并发布到互联网上。

The purpose of this study is to develop a multimedia database (maltimedia materials) available to regional studies in elementary and secondary schools. Concretely, we planed the database consisted of two parts, that is, history and current events of Nagasaki. This year, we accomplished the database based on materials gathered in the previous year. Its contents are as follows.1) Part 1 : History of NagasakiThis part consists of four history teaching softwares, that is, "Nagasaki Kaidou", "Nagasaki Kaidou Ver.2", "Nagasaki Burabura" and "Nagasaki Atomic Bomb". "Nagasaki Kaidou" introduces the life culture of Nagasaki that mixes European, Chinese and Japanese culture. "Nagasaki Kaidou Ver.2" simulates the Siebold's (Philipp Franz von Siebold, 1796-1866) travel to Edo (1826), based on his book "Edo-Sanpu-Kikou" (Reise nach dem Hofe des Sjogun im Jahre 1826). "Nagasaki Burabura" is a guide of such historic spots in Nagasaki City as the Suwa Shrine that is famous for "Okunchi Festival". "Nagasaki Atomic Bomb" is a multimedia material for peace learning concerned with Nagasaki Atomic Bomb.2) Part 2 : Current Events of NagasakiThis part consists of three social studies softwares, that is, "Waterworks in Nagasaki", "Sewerage System in Nagasaki" and "Fisheries in Nagasaki". "Waterworks in Nagasaki" contains the chronological table and many statistical data of waterworks in Nagasaki City. "Sewerage System in Nagasaki" is constructed in the same way as the former, and furthermore is added the content from the environment education's point of view. "Fisheries in Nagasaki" introduces fisheries in Nagasaki City from coastal fishery to aquaculture.Unfortunately, the above materials could not be used in the nearby schools, since the running system for these materials mismatched that of those schools. So we translated some of these into WWW pages by HTML,and have sended on internet.
