Development of the Comprehensive Support and Advice Activities System for Students of remote self-learning systems using e-Learning

在为在职学生使用e-Learning的远程自学系统中，一个问题是难以保持学习动机。小小的学习挫折和工作压力会降低学习动力，延长推迟学习的时间。为远程教育的成人学生建立一个能够及早发现这种情况的支持和建议系统，对于建立成人学生的质量保证是至关重要的。新树大学研究生院自2002年以来，通过提供各种形式的支持，取得了一些积极的成果，但在对个别学生的支持方面也存在问题。基于这一经验，我们提出、实施和评估了为在职学生个人提供远程学习支持的新方法，这些方法更积极地利用了e-Learning的特点。所提出的方法被证明是有用的，特别是对于保持学习动机。

In remote self-learning systems using e-Learning for working students, one problem is the difficulty of maintaining motivation for learning. Small learning setbacks and the stress of work can decrease motivation for learning and extend periods of putting off studies. A support and advice system for adult students of distance learning which can detect such situations early on is essential to establish quality assurance for adult students. At Shinshu University Graduate School on the Internet, we have achieved some positive results by providing various types of support since 2002, but there have also been problems regarding support for individual students. Based on this previous experience, we propose, implements and evaluates new approaches to distance learning support for individual working students which more actively utilizes the characteristics of e-Learning. Proposed approaches are shown to be of useful especially for maintaining motivation for learning.
