Digital learning can help rural schools to provide learning material. Elementary school students need interesting learning material, thereby increasing their willingness to learn. Teaching by using a video believed to be more easily understood by students compared to the use of text. This research designed a web-based video on demand to support digital learning. The research process using the concept...
One of the problem in rural schools is the lack of learning resources. It makes the teaching in class as almost the only learning resource. Implementation of digital learning can help overcome these problems. One example of the implementation of digital learning are included in the District Arso, Keerom regency, Papua, which is managed by Pusat Penelitian Teknologi Informasi dan Komunikasi (PPTIK)...
A web-based computer-aided material-selection system for aircraft design, together with its architecture and implementation details, is put forward. Furthermore, a prototype of this system is developed and the prototype's effectiveness is demonstrated by an aircraft-design material-selection case in actual applications. This system can help designer select suitable materials for airframe, provide...
This paper describes the prototype of a diagnosis support system for preventing disease and its interface. The paradigm shift from disease treatment to its prevention is to be advocated. Also improving lifestyles at an early stage of diseases and a better comprehension of clinical data are important. To promote this paradigm shift, we construct a prototype of a medical diagnosis system that supports...
This paper reports on a word list generator program, which provides teachers and students support to effectively use authentic texts in an EAP reading class at the university level in Japan. The web-based program was designed to identify the distribution of vocabulary items from General Service List, Academic Word List, and JACET 8000 (4000+250) in a given authentic text, and to instantly produce...
This paper outlines a project aimed at addressing the issue of the scalability of online academic support. This project is being run during the Autumn semester at the University of Southern Queensland (USQ) Toowoomba Australia, in conjunction with the Australian Digital Futures Institute. The study attached to the project will use Design-Based Research to evaluate the effectiveness of a simple, but...
There is an increasingly number of worldwide available content on the Web, which could be reused to support learning processes. However, Web content is getting more and more structured as multimedia files and reusing it implies on using the whole file, which limits its applicability and the return on investment of its development. So, an interesting approach is the segmentation of content, structuring...
Technologies and learning platforms approaches are changing each day, one of the reasons for it is that organizations, enterprises and institutions are growing and producing more knowledge, whereas workers are becoming knowledge workers and need to be adapted for the fast change and share of information. From past experience, it has been denoted that strategies and pedagogical processes are tasks...
In this paper the research mainly concerns problems from two levels: one is how to organize case study activities and the other is how to use effective Web-based study environment to support case study activities. We develop two sections of research work: prototype implementing section and practice research section. In prototype implementing section, we study the current popular case databases all...
This paper presents a new game community support system and shows an experimental prototype system, based on an Internet social network system. The experimental results show the validity of this system and confirm the support function. Although competition among game creators or candidates is usually severe, they can communicate comfortably and collaborate with each other, using this system. As the...
We are developing "the ubiquitous environment house" for observational learning in science education. The house can produce weather condition artificially. Also, the house gets real-time weather data from remote site via the Internet. Then, the system reproduces the remote weather condition in the environment house. If there are the same environment in the house and outside the house, students...
An amount of information on the Web has been increased explosively with the growth of information technology. In the area of electronic commerce, the recommender systems that provide personalized content are crucial research issue. The analysis of efficient user preference is important for improving the recommendation accuracy. Existing recommendation system has used implicit feedback for analyzing...
Rapid prototyping allows for evaluation of design product in a short period of time. Designers or CEOs may perceive the size and appearance of the product by touching the automatically constructed physical objects produced through rapid prototyping. However, it is usually impossible to change its color, texture, and user interface. In this paper, we introduce 'Augmented Reality based Re-formable Mock-up',...
As the amount of available video content increases, so does the need for better ways of browsing all this material. Because the nature of video makes it hard to process, the need arises for adequate surrogates for video that can readily be skimmed and browsed. In this paper, the effects of the use of hierarchy in a pictorial summary of keyframes are explored, and a novel type of video surrogate is...
