Purpose of use: In-house training/training for new recruits We have recently introduced an e-learning system for pre-employment training for new graduate hires. I was a soccer coach in my previous job, and e-learning has been introduced in the soccer world for more than 10 years. The way it was introduced was that we would study e-learning in advance when coaching soccer, and then we would have a group training session for everyone, after which we would actually coach the players. When we first introduced the system, it took some staff members a while to get used to it, partly because of differences in computer literacy, but now it has become a commonplace system.　...

There were actually companies other than Tatsuno Information System that I thought would be good here... (laugh), but when I actually used the system on a trial basis, I was concerned about the UI of the basic screen, such as the small letters and old design. It was when I was thinking that way that I came across learningBOX. I was immediately issued an ID for the free plan, and when I actually tried creating content, I thought, "This is better by several orders of magnitude! (laugh).　...

Purpose of use: Internal training/training exams Three years ago, when we decided to introduce learningBOX, we were operating the licensing system in a different way than we do today. We had a written test for knowledge and an exam for practical skills. The written exam was paper-based, but it was time-consuming and subject to scoring errors. Otherwise, there would be a blurring of scores. The man-hours are concentrated on a specific member of the team. Also, the exam was held once a month, but there were a lot of people taking the exam, and it was difficult to pass.　... Click here to continue.

Pass the National Nursing Examination in one shot! What is the national exam preparation using e-learning study! This is Kitaoka 🍎, our marketing manager. It's almost time for the national exam! In this article, we would like to introduce a study method using our e-learning system (learningBOX) to help you prepare for the National Nursing Examination. The nursing license is one of the most popular and in-demand national qualifications in the medical field! For those in charge of education at universities and vocational schools that are focusing on training nurses, and for teachers who are worried about the passing rate of the national exam, our learningBOX allows you to study outside of class time, as well as in your spare time, to "effectively and efficiently" prepare for the national exam. You can use our learningBOX not only outside of class time, but also in your spare time. We also offer learning tools specialized for memorization and quiz creation tools that can be used as repetitive learning to understand and consolidate what you have learned. The question creation tool allows you to easily create and publish questions for the web-based exam. Thank you very much for your cooperation. Click here for the Table of Contents 1. difficulty level and trends of the national nursing examination 2. challenges and concerns in preparing for the national exam 3. how to prepare for the national exam using the learningBOX content features 4. summary The difficulty level and trend of the National Nursing Examination ▼ Click here for the passing status of the 108th National Nursing Examination. The 108th National Nursing Examination was held on Sunday, February 17, 2019, with 64,153 applicants, 63,603 examinees, and 56,767 successful applicants, for a pass rate of 89.3% (91.0% last year). Of these, 58,622 new graduates applied, 58,308 took the exam, and 55,216 passed, for a pass rate of 94.7% (compared to 96.3% last year). ▼ Click here for 2019 pass rates. Here is a chart showing the National Nursing Examination and the pass rate for the past 10 years. In this way, it looks like a relatively low difficulty exam, passing in around 90%. ....... In fact, there is a secret to this pass rate. ☑POINT If you look at the breakdown of those who passed, the pass rate for new graduates is 94.71 TP2T, while the pass rate for graduates is 29.31 TP2T! Yes, the pass rate appears to be high because new graduates account for more than 90% of the applicants. *The pass rate alone gives the illusion that the exam is easy to get through in terms of difficulty, but once you fail the national exam, the probability of passing the next national exam becomes even lower. Therefore, it is very important to have a learning method and a learning environment that will allow you to get a passing grade the first time! Issues and concerns in preparing for the national exam We have already discussed that the pass rate is higher for new graduates who take the national exam immediately after learning specialized content at school. So, what is the actual study period for new graduates? Let's check the annual schedule of nursing students. ▼ Nursing students' annual, schedule In the third year, clinical training is the main focus. Students spend more than half a year at the hospital or facility where they are practicing, learning communication skills through practical skills instruction, chart writing, and patient care assistance. Even after the practical training is over, students will continue to be busy with case reports, nursing research, graduation exams, and other activities even after the practical training visits are over. Students are usually able to concentrate on studying for the national examinations from December onward, and it is a common practice for students to prepare for the national examinations with a packed schedule. The study curriculum schedule is inevitably a short-term battle. The scope of the National Examination and passing criteria are here. The scope of the examination consists of three types of questions: "compulsory questions," "general questions," and "situational questions. The detailed contents are as follows. Passing Criteria The National Nursing Examination consists of 240 questions with a maximum score of 300 points. In order to pass, the following two conditions must be met ☑ Answer correctly at least 80% of the "required questions ☑Fulfill the year's criteria for "General Questions + Situational Questions". The compulsory questions are allotted 50 points out of 300 points, which is 1 point per question. Since 80% of the total number of points is for the compulsory questions, if you do not score more than 40 points (answer more than 40 questions correctly), you will fail the exam at that point, even if you got a perfect score for the General and Situational Setting questions. The situational questions are worth 2 points per question, and the passing standard for these questions fluctuates each year. This is because the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare adjusts the number of successful applicants based on the supply-demand ratio of nurses. As you can see, it is necessary to prepare well for the exam in order to pass. However, neither teachers nor learners can easily spend all their time preparing for the exam. Let's take a look at their respective concerns. ▼ Issues and problems faced by teachers in preparing for the national examinations In recent years, exam questions have been changing to reflect more clinical situations. Behind this trend, we can see the intention of the examiners to have those who have an essential understanding of what they have learned and who truly have aptitude as nurses pass the exam, rather than those who are just trying to learn a few tricks. It is a red herring to think, "Let's just get by by rote memorization." The study required to pass the upcoming national nursing examination is as close as possible to the study required to become a nurse who can work in the field. So what can we do? How can you prepare for the exam efficiently and effectively with limited time? The solution to this problem is "e-learning" and the learningBOX! Here are some of the ways to prepare for the national examinations using the content features of learningBOX! Click here to see how to prepare for the national exam using the memorization cards. ▼This is a very useful learning tool for contents, keywords, and memorized materials that are frequently asked in the national examinations. We have made a sample of memorization cards that could be used to prepare for the national exam. Please use them for your reference only. Click on the following items to activate the player and see how it works. Memorization cards about hormones Memorization cards for swallowing Memorization cards for muscles and nerves Memorization cards related to pediatrics Memorization cards can be created as text files. Once created, they can be easily converted to a web-based memorization card application. You can also check which words you have memorized and how much you have accomplished. You can also insert images into the memory cards. You can find more information on how to create a memorization card on the CardGenerator website. ▼ The quiz function is useful for repetitive learning of past questions! ⇒Try the quiz! You can solve it from here. You can create your own quizzes and publish them on the web in 12 different formats. You can also embed images, videos, and explanations. Links can also be set up so that users can be redirected to a specific location (page). Other detailed settings such as time limits, passing scores, and shuffling of quiz choices can also be configured to suit each application. Please refer to the optional items list page for a wide variety of optional functions. Clicking on the following items will activate the player and allow you to check the web questions. Required Question Basic Nursing Adult Nursing Geriatric Nursing Pediatric Nursing Psychiatric Nursing ▼ The quiz function allows learners to train their application skills by dividing the study by year or by subject, or by changing the format of the questions. Another key point is that students can easily study at their own pace outside of school study time.

What is SCORM? It's almost the end of May. I'm Kidaoka, a marketing manager, and I'm scared of the heat in the Kansai region as we head into full-blown summer. In my hometown of Aomori, it's about 26-30 degrees in summer. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not 🍎. Now, enough chit-chat, let's get down to business! As I collect information related to e-learning, study, and related topics, I keep coming across this! SCORM" is a term that you may have come across a few times in your research. There is no doubt that SCORM is a concept and overview that is deeply related to e-learning, but the content is difficult to understand and it is difficult to visualize. Let's study and learn about SCORM together! Click here to see the table of contents. 1. Outline Background of SCORM 3. How SCORM Works 4. Benefits of Standardization 5. Summary 1. Overview SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Model/SCORM) is a global standard for e-learning developed by the ADL (Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative), the US Department of Defense. The "e-learning standard" is a global standard developed by the ADL (Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative), the U.S. Department of Defense. It is a standardized standard that has been properly evaluated by international standards and "proof of quality and trust" has been standardized. By ensuring that the content of educational materials conforms to this standard, learning can take place on a variety of LMSs, regardless of the manufacturer that developed the content. Scheme can be thought of as "a standard for standardization in e-learning. In Japan, the e-Learning Consortium is playing a central role in promoting the standard. Let's think of SCORM as a game console When you buy a new game console, you may be puzzled by the differences in usability, controls, and button positions between the controller and the console you used before. After you have become accustomed to the new controller, you may have to relearn how to use it, and you may experience unnecessary stress before you can operate it the way you want to. But what if there is a standardized controller? If the controller is the same as the previous console, you will not be confused by the operations and will be able to work smoothly. SCORM is the standard here. 2. Background of SCORM SCORM was established to prevent the proliferation of standards, and to ensure that learning materials can be used commonly across different learning management systems. However, the complexity of SCORM itself makes it difficult for the average layperson to create learning materials that conform to SCORM. ) in Japan. 3. SCORM Structure Let's take a look at the structure of SCORM. Durability Interoperability Accessibility Reusability These are some of the keywords that make SCORM easy to understand. SCORM is a standard that allows e-Learning content to be studied on a wide range of operating systems and Web browsers without the need for major modifications when systems or software versions are upgraded, allows learning materials to be retrieved when necessary, and makes it possible to easily reuse existing content and create new content (reusability). It can be said that e-Learning is a standard to enable the creation of new content by easily reusing existing content. In general, e-Learning is a form of learning management system (LMS), and SCORM defines the common specifications for connecting the two. Benefits of Standardization What is standardization? What is standardization? Standardization is defined as "the unification of multiple elements into the same specification, structure, or format." It is defined as "the unification of multiple elements into the same specification, structure, or format. Product standardization is used in many different fields. Some of the common benefits are listed below. The same ease of use allows operation without having to learn something new. Stable product specifications reduce the number of errors, bugs, and other problems. Economies of scale with the same specifications will reduce costs and prices. Advantages of SCORM standardization When using a new product, including software, a period of familiarization is required. However, if the ease of use is standardized, there is less time and effort to learn new things. Currently, e-Learning is distributed in two parts, LMS and content, but if standardization of this consolidated part is promoted, any content can be used on any LMS. This applies to e-Learning as well, and will lead to better products being offered to users at lower prices. Conclusion SCORM is a global standard for e-Learning that has been properly evaluated by international standards and standardized to provide "proof of quality and reliability. SCORM is a global standard that allows learning materials to be retrieved whenever necessary on many operating systems and web browsers without the need for major modifications such as content system or software version upgrades, and allows existing content to be easily reused and new content to be created.

Let's use the permission settings of learningBOX! School Use Edition Hello! This is ⛄ Shinokura from the Quality Control Department. There has been a pandemic of the new coronavirus worldwide. 。。。。。 Let's be careful and spend our time by thoroughly following the basic "wash your hands, gargle, and ventilate". Now, in this article, I'd like to talk about the use of "learningBOX authorization settings," which I introduced to you a little last time! In this article, based on the previous contents, I would like to further elaborate on the authorization settings and try to set up the authorization settings assuming an example of use in a school. If you are interested in introducing our e-learning system (learningBOX) in your school, please refer to this article to learn the authorization settings and try using it. Click here for the table of contents 1. brief review of authorization settings 2. introduction of authority settings using a school as an example 3. let's add administrative privileges 4. let's try to log in with the member who set the permission 5. summary Brief Review of Authorization Settings Using the Authorization Settings in learningBOX, "management, setting, and editing tasks" such as "creating learning materials, managing grades, and assigning learning materials" that are usually performed by the administrator can be entrusted to a user (a person who has been assigned the authority) designated by the administrator. Authorized users can manage the learning environment in learningBOX in the same way as the administrator, such as creating content (learning materials), viewing and managing learners' grade information, and assigning content to each group. *If you would like to learn more about authority settings, please refer to the previous article on how to give appropriate roles to members using learningBOX's authority settings. Here is an example of authority settings using a school as an example In this authorization setting, the administrator (principal) will set authorizations such as "create teaching materials, manage grades, and assign teaching materials" to the leader (teacher) of each group. To make it easier to understand the authorization settings, we will divide the groups into "learning administrator = teacher" and "learner = student". To set up permissions, you will first need to create a group in Member Management. In this case, we will use this group that we have prepared in advance. Using the member management function of learningBOX, you can add and register members and groups by delving into one group in more detail. ▼ Group Configuration This time, the group is structured in this hierarchy. Teacher>>Student Management - Subject>>Japanese - Mathematics - English - Social Studies - Science ・・・・・ Student>>Year 1->Year 2->Year 3->Group 1->Group 2・・・・ *The flow of setting up permissions is to create member accounts for teachers in the "Teacher" group, student member accounts in the "Student" group, and member accounts for administrators in the "Administration in General" group. And in this example setup, we will show you how to 1. grant administrative privileges to the "Head teacher" from the principal who is the administrator. 2. set up a "student administrator" teacher to manage "students". 3. set up a "teacher administrator" teacher to manage "teachers". We would like to set up the above three. Let's put on the management authority. Let's log in to learningBOX with the account of the administrator (principal) and set up the administrative privileges. As the general supervisor of learningBOX, you will have all administrative privileges. It might be a good idea to put the principal's most trusted "vice principal" in charge of this post! Here is how to set it up. Please watch this video. Here is the procedure for setting up permissions. (1) Log in with the administrator's account. (2) Select the group/member for which you wish to set administrative privileges. In this case, "Administration General". (3) Click on the All icon for Administrative Authority, select "All members and all materials, and check all" and save it. Now, the "vice principal = administrator with full authority" can create groups and members (and can also be granted administrative privileges), create and assign teaching materials, view grades, manage announcements, edit the text of e-mails, and operate settings. Setting Permissions for Student Management Groups ▼ Please watch this video. The members of the "Teacher" >> "Student Management" group (student administrators) are authorized to manage "students". Click on the icon button of the person with administrative privileges, select "Students" instead of all members, and save. This will allow the student administrator to create, edit, and delete members in the hierarchy below "Students". The student member accounts do not need any specific permissions, so the grant permissions will not be granted. Authorization rights will also be set for teacher-managed groups. ▼ Please see this video. Give permission to the member (teacher administrator) who belongs to "Sensei" >> "Teacher Management" to manage "Sensei". Administrative Permissions >> People Icon >> Select "Teacher" without selecting all members and save. Next, click the hammer icon in the administrative authority, check the grant authority and save. This setting allows the teacher administrator to create, edit, and delete members in the hierarchy below "Teacher", as well as to grant administrative privileges to them. Let's log in with the member who has been granted privileges. Let's log in to learningBOX with the member who has been given the authority and check the member management screen. Administrator with full privileges Log in to learningBOX with the account of the head teacher. The screen is the same as that of the owner (principal). You can also set input fields. Student Administrator When you open the member management screen, don't be surprised if you see "You do not have administrative privileges for this group. Click on "Students" to view the members belonging to the "Students" group. You can add, edit, and delete groups and members by clicking the + button. (Below "Student") There are no items with icons for administrative privileges, because you have not been given the authority to grant privileges. Teacher Administrator As before, you can view the members belonging to "Teacher" by clicking "Teacher". You can add, edit, and delete groups and members from + button. (Under "Teacher") Because you have been given authorization authority, you can add authorization from the administration authority. Conclusion Many schools across the country have suddenly decided to close as a measure to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus. Although it was unavoidable, teachers must have been troubled by the sudden situation. With an e-learning system, the teacher can take videos of the class from home and submit questions, and the students can view the videos and solve the problems at home. Our e-learning system, learningBOX, is available on a free trial basis. In this paper, we introduced how to give only the authority that is required, not uniformly the same authority, to groups and members assuming a school. In the next issue, I would like to talk about how to set the authority to teachers for each subject. Thank you for your patience until the end.
