Development of Presentation Supporting System for Elementary and Secondary School Students and Teachers

本研究的主要目的是开发便于小学生操作和演示的演示支持软件。(1)教学活动的分析与设计：在神奈川县教育中心教职员工(作为研究合作者)的配合下，神奈川县的几位小学教师对教师和学生的陈述活动进行了分析。为了让老师和学生都能很好地做报告，需要一长串的课程。他们设计和实施课程来做报告。很明显，有两种演示文稿。一是在同学面前的展示活动。另一种是展示或展示产品，如讲解课程或测验课程。很明显，一个完善的演示工具将支持许多方面的活动，并将缩短所需的课时。(2)软件开发：1)在上个财年开发的“Gakusshu-kun”中增加了局域网中的数据传输功能。2)我们为Windows 95开发了“Gakusshu-kun”。这是因为许多学校的PC机房都有许多Windows95机器。3)我们开发了模拟创作工具，用于表达像行星一样的多对象同时运动。4)增加了制作演示课程所需的功能，为演示课程的编写增加了功能。这些功能包括备忘录附加、计算器、表格和图表。通过这样做，学生可以从调查研究到总结和演示继续活动。神奈川县教育中心向神奈川县许多学校分发了软件Gakusshu-kun，并将其与许多课程一起使用。在这份报告中，有8个长期的经验教训，在这些经验教训中，加库舒昆得到了有效的利用。

The main purpose of this research is to develop the presentation support software which a pupil can operate and demonstrate easily. We devided the theme into two items.(1) Analysing and Designing Teaching and Learning Activity :With the cooperation of Faculty of Kanagawa Prefectural Education Center (as a research cooperator), several elementary school teachers in Kanagawa Prefecture analyzed the teacher and students' presentation activities. Long sequences of lessons were necessary to make good presentations by teachers and students.They designed and carried out lessons for presentation. It became clear that there were two kinds of presentation. One is the presentation activity in front of classmates. The other is to exhibit or display the products like an explanation course or a quize course.It became obvious that a well developed presentation tools will support many aspects of activities and will shorten the lesson hours needed.(2) Software Development :1) Data tranfer function in a local area network was added to "Gakushuu-kun" that was developed last fiscal year.2) We developed "Gakushuu-kun" for Windows95. It was because many schools have many Windows95 machines in PC room.3) We developed Simulation Authoring Tool for expressing simultanious multi-objects movement like planets. The user of "Gakushuu-kun" can make a presentation course from which simulation file by Simulation Authoring Tool is called.4) We added more functions which was needed for the preparation of presentation courses. The functions are Memo Attaching, calculator, Table and Graph. By doing this, students can continue activities from an investigation study to summarization and presentation.The software "Gakushuu-kun" is distributed to many schools in Kanagawa prefecture from Kanagawa Prefectural Education Center and utilized with so many lessons. In this report, there are 8 long lessons in which Gakushuu-kun is used effectively.
