SUPPORT SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT OF TEACHING ENGLISH IN REGULAR CLASSROOM ENVIRONMENTS IMPLETENTED UNDER THE MILLENNIUM PROJECT

2002年，我们购买了千禧项目常规教室环境的设备和开发英语学习支持系统的设备。我们还访问了东南亚一些信息通信技术发达和不发达的学校。我们还举行了会议，讨论如何为支持系统开发数字内容以及如何在课堂上使用它们。通过对东南亚学校的访问，我们再次确认了国家之间、个人之间存在着四道鸿沟；数字鸿沟、英语鸿沟、沟通鸿沟和激励鸿沟。2003年，我们致力于英语学习系统的实用化开发。我们很幸运，我们的联盟，ICT英语学习支持联盟，在ext推广使用教育数字内容的项目中注册。该联盟由大约20名教师组成，从小学到大学，目标是制作和利用英语学习的数字内容。为了实现这个目标，我们在今年使用了这个项目的研究经费，主要用于购买开发和制作数字内容所需的设施和设备。我们的最终产品数量达到140个，其中一些在NICER上可以买到。2004年，我们在学术会议和会议上介绍了我们的数码产品，以推广和宣传它们。我们在日本做了8次演讲和3次报告。2005年9月，在韩国釜山举行的韩日联合国际会议上，我们还进行了4次演讲。

In 2002, we purchased equipment for the regular classroom environments of the millennium project and equipment for developing the English learning support system. Also we visited some ICT-advanced and ICT-underdeveloped schools in Southeast Asia. We also had meetings to discuss how to develop digital contents for the support system and how to use them in class. Through the visits to the schools in Southeast Asia, we reconfirmed that there exist four divides between countries and between individuals ; Digital Divide, English Divide, Communication Divide and Incentive Divide.In 2003, we worked on the practical development of English learning system. We were fortunate that our consortium, Consortium for English Learning Support with ICT, registered in the MEXT project of promotional use of educational digital contents. The consortium consisted of some 20 teachers, from primary school to university, with the goal of production and utilization of digital contents of English learning. To accomplish this goal, we used the research fund of this project in this year mainly for the purchase of the facility and equipment necessary to develop and produce the digital contents. Our final products reached 140 in number and some of them are available at NICER.In 2004, we gave presentations about our digital products at academic meetings and conferences for the promotion and publicity of them. We gave 8 presentations and three reports in Japan. Also we gave four presentations at a Korea-Japan joint international conference in Busan, Korea in September, 2005.
