Education for Information Processing with the Multi-Media Computer System and Network System

在日本的大部分大学中，网络系统是完备的，教职员工和学生可以随时与校园内外的人联系，网络系统还通过准备多媒体等多种硬件来支持课堂教学。但是，支持系统的软件并不总是完整的。本研究开发了信息处理教育的两个新系统：（1）电子教材支持系统的开发;（2）多媒体教材数据库的建设。前者是在计算机操作系统“NEXTSTEP”下制作的电子报告和新型电子教材，包括声音、图像等多媒体电子材料，是一种适合网络环境与多媒体环境相结合的系统。该系统是我校教学工作中的一个有用的教材。后者是使用WWW（万维网）浏览器为教师和研究生院的所有科目开发教育系统。在不久的将来，这一系统将成为教育系统和教材的主要组成部分。教授在讲课前用HTML（超文本标记语言）制作教材，学生可以在讲课前通过教材进行学习。从这项研究中获得的新系统被用于我们大学的有效教育。

In most of university in Japan, network system is completely provided and stuff and students can always connect to persons in and out campus.The network system also supports the education in class by preparing many hardwares such as the multi-media. But, software for the supporting system is not always full. In this study, we develop the two new systems for the education in information processing as follows ; (1) Development of supporting system for electric teaching materials, (2) Construction of data base to use multi-media as teaching material. The former is utilized for the electric reports and new electric teaching materials such multi-media as sound, image and other electric materials under the computer operating system, "NEXTSTEP", which is a suitable system for combination between the network environment and multi-media environment. The system is a useful material for education in our university. The latter is development of the education system using the WWW (World Wide Web) browser for all subjects in faculty and graduate school. In near future, such system will be main part of the education system and teaching materials. The professor makes the textbook with HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) before his lecture and his students can study by the textbook before the lecture. The new systems obtained from this study are utilized for effective education in our university.
