About the video capacity of the Standard Plan

About the video capacity of the Standard Plan This is Kinoshita, CS introduction support staff. It's almost the long-awaited Obon vacation! Have you made your Obon vacation plans yet? There will be swimming, barbecues, firework festivals, and lots of other fun things! My plan for the Bon vacation is to study for a certain amount of time every morning for the Basic Information Technology Engineer exam. My plan for Obon is to study for a certain amount of time every morning for the Basic Information Technology Engineer exam. Let's keep moving forward every day toward our goals! This time's story This article is a summary of the questions we often receive from our customers about the capacity of the video materials in the Standard Plan. The advantage of video materials is that they can express content and nuances that words alone simply cannot convey. Our Standard Plan allows for a lot of video material! We recommend this plan to customers who are considering video learning as their main focus. However, there is one thing you need to be aware of. Video materials cannot be uploaded without limitation. So, how much video can I upload? Click here for Table of Contents 1. frequently asked questions: how many uploads can I upload? 2. frequently asked questions: What is the upload limit per upload? 3. what happens in such cases? When the size of your video exceeds 500 MB 4. summary FAQ: How many videos can I upload? The Standard Plan allows you to use 100GB of total capacity with a 100-account contract. For those who may not be familiar with the term "100GB," here is an explanation of the data capacity related to videos. In the case of Standard Plan Maximum upload limit of 500MB of video material 1GB = approx. 1000MB 100GB = approx. 100,000MB (overall) 100,000MB ÷ 500MB (upper limit per video) = 200 videos *If you are uploading video materials only, you can upload as many as 200 videos with a 100-account contract. (However, the overall capacity is cumulative, including the amount of grade data other than teaching materials.) FAQ: What is the upload limit per video? So, how many minutes of video can be uploaded with 500MB of video? As it turns out, we cannot answer how many minutes of video you can upload, as it depends on the video material! When judging the capacity of a video, it is not wrong to say that the playback time has an impact, but there is a number that has a bigger impact. The quality of the video, such as image and sound quality (bit rate), has a significant impact. (→ What is bitrate?) Simply put, a video with a high bit rate = a video with high image and sound quality → in other words, a video with a large capacity. *When uploading videos that may be large in size (corresponding to 500 MB or less), the original video must be divided and uploaded with a shorter playback time per video. But don't worry, there is a way to handle this! The following is an explanation of how to deal with this problem. What to do in such a case? When the size of the video exceeds 500 MB Some customers may ask, "What should I do if the maximum upload size per video exceeds 500 MB?" Some customers may have questions such as, "What should I do if some of my videos exceed the 500 MB upload limit per material? There are two solutions to this question. 1. consider microlearning (although the video materials may not be microlearning-ready in the first place) Microlearning is a style of learning in which students can easily learn materials with short learning time at a time using mobile devices. For example, let's break down volume teaching materials such as "Arithmetic" into categories such as "Addition," "Subtraction," "Multiplication," "Division," etc., or into chapters to create teaching materials. Given a video called "Arithmetic," a teaching material, we say that it should be broken down into smaller pieces such as "Addition," "Subtraction," "Multiplication," "Division," etc. (3 to 10 minutes), which have shorter learning time. In this way, the video capacity can be reduced. In addition, there are three advantages to microlearning. If you are interested, please refer to this article as well. Learning in Your Skim Time [Microlearning]. 2. video compression A video, even one or two hours long, can be reduced to 500 MB if properly compressed. Compression means adjusting the video to an appropriate quality, as excessive quality will unnecessarily increase the size of the video. Therefore, we have prepared a tool that allows anyone to easily compress videos. No special settings are required, and the tool can be downloaded and used immediately. Please click here for more details. The easiest way to pre-compress video materials Summary In this issue, we have briefly explained the number of videos that can be uploaded and the upload capacity limit for the Standard Plan. When using video materials, the quality of the video and the sound quality of the video will also have a significant impact on the capacity. Please be careful when uploading video materials.

Notes on creating quizzes in the question creation form

Hello, this is Nagai🎮 of the Quality Control Department, still unable to let go of my fan due to the hot and cold weather. October has arrived in the blink of an eye! In this article, I would like to share with those who want to create quizzes that can be used in e-learning, what to keep in mind when creating quizzes in the question making form and how to solve them. For those of you who are using our QuizGenerator or learningBOX and are having trouble with the questions not displaying well, how can you solve the problem? We are here to help you! If you know how to solve a small input error, you can quickly deal with it! Thank you very much for your cooperation. Click here for the Table of Contents 1. what is deceptive appearance? 2. how to solve it 3. summary What is deceived by appearance? First of all, please look at the following image. The text is typed in the "problem statement" section. At first glance, it looks like you are just typing "Don't let appearances deceive you. But if you check the actual source code, you will see ・・・・・ *This is just an example, and in some cases it can be even more complicated. Font specifications, paragraphs, headings, and many other things may be specified. ➡ " This is what I call being fooled by appearances." When do you see this kind of phenomenon? This phenomenon may occur when you use "copy and paste" which you usually use casually when creating quizzes. It is easy to create questions by copying and pasting the information you have entered in the question creation form or the text and contents posted on the Internet, but "unnecessary information such as extra line breaks, spaces, special fonts, and machine dependent characters are also incorporated when creating quizzes. Some problems occur when multiple questions are combined into one, as well as the display of the player's screen is corrupted. If a question does not display as expected, these are the most likely causes💦. Solution This is caused by using the issue creation form and you will need to check the source code for confirmation." The easiest way around this is to use text." To be precise, it is the method of using standard text. Standard text does not allow the use of html tags and only the bare text data is entered. You can adjust the text here and create questions in text format as is, or you can copy and paste it into the question creation form. You can use the standard text as you wish once you have gone through the standard text. Summary When using the question form to create a question, you may find that it appears differently than you intended. It may seem convenient, but there are unexpected pitfalls. However, html tags are there to display problems beautifully. The html tags are not that difficult to understand. Some people reject them just by looking at the English language, but I want them to touch them just a little. Furthermore, by applying HTML tags and other techniques, you can create interesting problems, such as this one. This article is a bit of advice for those who want to create quizzes that can be used in e-learning. Our e-learning system, learningBOX, has a very wide variety of quiz formats and options. Of course, we are happy to consult with you on the creation of quizzes as well. Please feel free to contact us. Thank you for taking the time to read this article.

What is open source moodle for e-learning?

What is moodle, an open source for e-learning? Hello everyone, this is Ueda from CS. August seems to be ending in a flash, and soon it will be September. I just hope the heat will pass soon! Well, this time, I would like to talk briefly about the open source for e-learning, moodle. Before I begin, I would like to explain "open source". Open source refers to the idea that source code, which is a computer program written in a programming language that is easy for humans to understand, should be made widely available to the public so that anyone can freely handle it. It also refers to software released based on such an idea. ➡Quoted from IT Dictionary Advantages and Disadvantages of moodle There are several open source versions of LMS, but in this article, we will compare the advantages and disadvantages of moodle, which has a relatively large number of users. As for advantages, the biggest feature is that it is free of charge. Therefore, the cost at the time of introduction can be reduced. And it can be customized to any specification with a high degree of freedom. Also, based on the GPL license, users are free to download, modify, and further distribute it! One of the disadvantages of moodle is that you may not be able to secure a working environment if you use a rental server to install moodle, and if you install and operate your own server, you will need technical knowledge of servers. In addition, maintenance costs may be high in the event of problems due to the lack of a complete support system. Creating and setting up materials is also often considered difficult. Learn more about moodle eLearning - About open source moodle About our service LMS learningBOX Our service, learningBOX, is a cloud-based LMS that, unlike open source LMSs such as moodle, does not require in-house system configuration. LearningBOX is easy to use, and one of its strengths is that even those who are new to e-learning can operate it easily. 10 accounts can be used free of charge regardless of the expiration date, so you can try out almost all the functions before full-scale implementation. You can also use 11 to 100 accounts for as little as 30,000 yen per year! See more details about our pricing plans. The system is fully functional and easy to operate, including the creation and management of content, group management of members, and storage of results management. There are 12 types of contents that can be created and uploaded, including quizzes, tests, memorization cards, PDFs, videos, questionnaires, and reports. If you have any questions about implementing an LMS, we'd love to hear from you! We would be happy if you could try our free plan. Our CS team will do their best to support you before and after implementation! Conclusion What did you think? There are different types of e-learning systems. There are also many different types of e-learning systems. Each system has its own merits and demerits, and the system that best fits your needs will depend on how you operate your system. We hope this information will be helpful to those who are considering the introduction of a new system. Please find the best system for you. We are pleased to announce that we will be holding an exhibition at our booth. ▼ We will exhibit at the 3rd [Kansai] Educational IT Solution EXPO in Intex Osaka from September 25(Wed) to 27(Fri), 2019!

How to improve e-learning operations and increase the effectiveness of employee training

How can you improve your e-learning operations and increase the effectiveness of your employee training?

How to improve e-learning operations and increase the effectiveness of employee training? Hello! My name is Sakamoto, and I am in charge of CS. The rainy season has ended and the weather is getting hotter, but how are you doing? Let's make sure to stay hydrated to avoid heat stroke and survive the hot summer! Thank you very much for your cooperation. Have you ever felt that "we have introduced e-learning for employee training but have not seen much effect"? In the past few years, many companies have been using e-learning for new employee training and internal compliance training. However, if e-learning is introduced but not utilized, both cost and time will be wasted. In this article, we would like to discuss effective e-learning operation methods based on some common examples of e-learning operation. Click here for Table of Contents 1. cases where different systems are installed in different departments (2) Cases in which the training is not delivered in a way that is appropriate for the individual 3. cases in which support functions are not fully utilized 4. summary Cases where different systems are installed in different departments In large companies, it is often the case that each department conducts its own training. Each department has its own budget for training, and as a result, there are cases where each department uses a different learning management system (hereinafter referred to as "LMS"). In this case, using a different e-learning system for each department may seem like no problem at first glance, since only the training required for that department can be provided. However, the following disadvantages are also true. When company-wide training is conducted, the status of implementation cannot be monitored. It is impossible to manage which departments have what kind of skilled personnel. Unnecessary costs are incurred. Since training is for human resource development, it is problematic if the company itself cannot grasp what kind of training is being conducted in each department and what kind of human resources are being developed in each department. In addition, if different e-learning systems are used in each department, the introduction, operation, maintenance, and other costs are duplicated, which is wasteful from a cost standpoint as well. The countermeasure is to unify the LMS within the company. You may think that centralizing the system will make it difficult to train each department, but there is no need to worry about this. With an LMS that allows you to set up organizational hierarchies (e.g., Administration Division > Sales Department - Accounting Department - Production Department, etc.) and give each organization the authority to operate it, you can distribute and manage different educational materials for each department. And by placing the highest authority in the Administration Division or Human Resources Department, it is also possible to monitor the content and status of training throughout the company. Of course, our e-learning system, learningBOX, also allows for management and organizational hierarchy by department. Because each department can be grouped and hierarchized, any large organization can unify its LMS within the company. ➡Add/Remove group affiliation via CSV 2. cases in which the appropriate education is not delivered to the person No matter how good the training is, it is a waste of time if it is given to people who do not need it. New employees should receive training for new hires, and veteran employees should receive training for veteran employees. The training that new employees should receive will also depend on the department they are assigned to. With a shrinking workforce, companies are required to develop human resources efficiently. To this end, it is important to deliver the necessary training to the necessary people. One measure is to create and distribute e-learning materials tailored to each group of new employees, each position group, etc., rather than distributing the same materials to all employees. Even in the case of learningBOX, different materials can be distributed to each group, making it possible to assign materials appropriately for efficient human resource development. ➡Content Assignment 3. cases where the support functions are not fully utilized This case applies to those who vaguely feel that "it is difficult to manage" or "it is time-consuming. For example, in a large organization with a large number of employees, it may seem time-consuming at first glance to "encourage people who have not yet attended a training course to do so. The LMS has an "email notification" and "bulletin board" function to help ensure that participants take the training. You can use the support functions to eliminate unattended training, such as notifying employees who have not attended a training course by using the email notification function, or posting notices of new training courses on the bulletin board. The support function of the learningBOX, "Email Notification Function," allows you to narrow down the target group to whom you want to send emails and send them all at once. By narrowing down the target group to those who have not yet studied, those who have passed the course, etc., and by creating templates for each email, you can select the template when you send the email. In addition, the "Notification Function" allows you to post announcements from the administrator on the "My Page" of the learningBOX. When posting announcements, you can focus on specific groups, allowing you to change the content of announcements according to the group. ➡For more information, please click here for email notifications. 4. summary We hope you have enjoyed this explanation of effective e-learning management methods based on common examples of e-learning operations. In each case, we found that a little review is all it takes to find a better way to operate the system. We hope that you will make more effective use of e-learning and feel glad that you have introduced it. We hope that this report will serve as a reference for both companies that have already introduced e-learning and those that are thinking about doing so in the future. If you have any questions such as, "My company would like to introduce e-learning, but we don't know how to start..." or "We have already introduced e-learning, but is it possible to use it in this way?" If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us. Thank you very much for your time!

Paper based learning`s disadvantages and the implementation of our learningBOX,lms. (Paper based learning`s disadvantages and why we should implement learningBOX)

Introduction. This is a bilingual article written by the staff of the Overseas Strategy Office. The Japanese translation can be found in the middle of the page. This is Kodai Takahashi, an International division in Tatsuno Joho system. Today, I would like to mention the advantages of the e-learning system over the paper-based learning and our service, learningBOX as a solution for the Today, I would like to mention the advantages of the e-learning system over the paper-based learning and our service, learningBOX as a solution for the disadvantages of an e-learning system. Chapters Cause of slow transition to e-learning implementation despite its advantages Advantages of e-learning system and downside of paper-based learning 3. learnigBOX as a solution for e-learning system disadvantages 4. announcement Cause of slow transition to e-learning implementation despite its advantages In recent days, ed tech is a growing field in Japan to reform paper-based education to the online one. However, the transition is far from the rapid. However, the transition is far from the rapid. the traditional paper form is still the primary use for most of the education field despite the fact of the rapid growth of the IT technology. There are tons of pros about the use of online learning for the education industry such as reduction of cost, storage, physical demand as well as However, even if they have PCs in their school or working station, the educational department manager or teacher chooses to use the paper form. However, even if they have PCs in their school or working station, the educational department manager or teacher chooses to use the paper form as the first choice due to lack of technical knowledge for operation, expensive first installation cost and setting difficulty. In the long run, switching to e-learning is way more advantageous not only for users but also for administrators and managers. There are numerous benefits for online learning such as accessibility, cost-effectiveness, secure, smart and scalability than paper form. There are numerous benefits for online learning such as accessibility, cost-effectiveness, secure, smart, and scalability than paper form. Advantages of e-learning and downside of paper-based learning 1. Online learning is enabling users to access anywhere and anytime. You need your students or employees physically being located at a particular venue at a particular time. You need your students or employees physically being located at a particular venue at a particular time. it is quite inconvenient for most people since it costs extra time and effort to commute to the location. You require your personal laptop with wifi access and access the content anywhere and anytime you would like. Moreover, unlike physical lecture or class, you can pause, resume, repeat, subtitles and control the speed of content which is impossible to do by paper form. 2. cost-effective 2. cost-effective Printing cost seems to be cheap but it is not in reality. For instance, let`s assume you are a teacher who has 40 students in your classroom does a one-page long mini test per-week aside from a two-page length mid-term and end semester examination for one year. The cost of paper is 5 yen and you are printing always one sided with no color that costs approx. 10400 yen per year. It seems to be cheap, However, we need to consider, it does not include the cost of the printer, the storage, and the other stationary cost as well as replacement for loss/damage. Moreover, you cannot forget the labor cost is huge because they require a lot of time to carry the paper and to file documents correctly or sometimes they That causes another extra cost for the company or school. Eventually, It easily costs more than we are imagined. Eventually, It easily costs more than we imagined. Eventually, It easily costs more than we are imagined. online-learning does not require any of the above which is the profound cost reduction for the company or school. 3. Easy to manage user data or to monitor the user access Another instance is monitoring user activity and data. You cannot monitor their activity and user data instantly with the paper form. You need to get around the venue from start to end repeatedly to monitor their activity. You need to get around the venue from start to end repeatedly to monitor their activity. You need to search and gather a number of files in order to see the individual data if the user data is filed You need to search and gather a number of files in order to see the individual data if the user data is filed. Online learning stores the data to the Cloud or online data storage and easy to monitor the activity by accessing logs and managing the user data. There is no need to hustle for unnecessary piles of the paper document anymore. 4. Flexible setting for learning contents Otherwise, you need to insert the image manually or drawing a diagram by hand. Even you solve those issues, you cannot insert any video or audio format into the question. You need other devices with you that cost physically and financially. Most of the time, Students or trainees require visual and graphical ques for more understanding. Online learning can give users more flexibility to study material content. 5. 5. high security Maybe most of the people consider the paper as the most secure method. However, it is not the case since there is no password you can set on the paper. Therefore, no one knows who is accessing the document. Additionally, what if the paper with user data is lost while transporting the document. It is far from secure but online learning you can set the password and restrict the access right for the user under the user. It is far from secure but online learning you can set the password and restrict the access right for the user under your monitor. 3.learnigBOX as a solution for e-learning system disadvantages Until now, I mentioned the benefit of switching to the online learning system from the paper form. Despite the outstanding benefit of online learning, there is some downside of it that are the initial installation cost, the need for technical knowledge and set-up difficulty. Despite the outstanding benefit of online learning, there is some downside of it that are the initial installation cost, the need for technical knowledge and set-up difficulty. Most of the online learning system is too expensive for most of the small-medium size enterprises where are under a tight budget for their employee training or teaching for their students, as well as they are lacking technical knowledge makes them hesitate to implement the online learning system. Moreover, set-up difficulty seems to be one of the biggest obstacles to online learning implementation. As a solution, our service learningBOX has been developed which only costs 3000 yen with 100 user account per year with simple UI operation such as drag and As a solution, our service learningBOX has been developed which only costs 3000 yen with 100 user account per year with simple UI operation such as drag and drop of the file in the quiz creation-form with no requirement for programming experience or computer proficiency. We aim for anyone who can access e-learning for their productive learning. Our learningBOX is now supported by the AWS ed start program now. 4.

This is Takahashi, in charge of the Overseas Strategy Office, Tatsuno Information Systems. In this issue, I will write about the reasons why online learning should be introduced, the disadvantages of using paper-based media, and how learningBOX solves the problems of introducing an e-learning system. Click here to see the table of contents. 1. background of the slow adoption of e-learning 2. advantages of e-learning from the administrator's point of view 3. obstacles to e-learning implementation and advantages of learningBOX 4. announcements 1. background of lack of e-learning adoption Although demand for e-learning has been growing at an accelerating pace in Japan recently, the demand for traditional paper-based learning remains high and the education industry is hesitant to make the transition. However, the introduction of online learning offers overwhelming advantages in terms of access, cost, security, efficiency and scalability. Paper-based learning, on the other hand, has many disadvantages in terms of cost, storage, physical demand, and inflexibility of content. However, even when PCs are available in the school or work area, education department administrators or teachers tend to opt for paper-based systems. The technical knowledge required to implement an online learning system, the expensive initial investment, and the complexity of the initial setup are often the main obstacles, leading to a shortsighted choice of paper-based learning. In the medium to long term, however, switching to e-learning is highly beneficial for both users and administrators. Advantages of e-Learning from the Administrator's Perspective 1. online learning does not require the expense of paper, printers, storage, etc. Printing costs may seem low, but in reality, more costs are incurred. For example, suppose you are a teacher of 40 students. You print one quiz per week on one side of the paper, plus a midterm and a final exam (two copies of each). Assuming that the cost of paper is 5 yen, the cost would be (5 yen x 48 times + 5 yen x 2 times x 2 sheets) x 40 students = approximately 10400 yen per year. This may seem inexpensive, but it does not include the cost of a backup in case of printing errors or loss, the cost of a printer, and the cost of securing a storage space. In addition, we cannot forget the huge labor costs. It takes a lot of time to transport paper and organize documents, and sometimes mistakes need to be reworked. This results in new costs, and costs can easily be higher than expected. E-learning, on the other hand, can reduce the cost of printing, storage of materials, and labor costs all at once. 2. difficulty in monitoring and managing user data activity Another advantage is user activity monitoring and data management. You cannot instantly monitor user activity on paper. You have to walk around the venue repeatedly from start to finish to visually verify the activity. Is that ideal for monitoring data? The answer is probably "no." Also, managing user data is cumbersome. To see an individual's data, you need to open a number of files. If user data is organized incorrectly, just finding it can be a challenge. With online learning, you simply save the data you create in a designated file. This easily reduces paper-based hassles. 3. flexibility of content With paper media, data entry is only possible in a basic two-dimensional plane. Otherwise, you must manually insert images or draw diagrams yourself. Even if you solve those problems, you cannot insert video or audio formats on paper. On the other hand, students and trainees need visual and graphical information to enhance their understanding. Online learning allows you to create more flexible and accurate information for your teaching materials and tests. 4. high security Most people think paper is the most secure method, but it is not. Because there is no password on the paper, you do not know who is accessing the document. Furthermore, what happens if the paper containing the user data is lost during document transport? We can only hope that someone picks it up and takes it to the lost and found section of the facility. Online learning allows you to set passwords and restrict user access. This eliminates the security issues that arise with paper media all together. 3. obstacles to e-learning implementation and benefits of implementing learningBOX We have discussed the advantages of online learning systems. Despite the advantages of online learning, why has its adoption been slow? We believe it is because of the initial investment costs, the need for technical knowledge, and the complexity of the setup. Most SMEs are hesitant to implement online learning not only because of limited budgets for employee training and student education, but also because of a lack of technical knowledge. Furthermore, the difficulty of getting to operations is one of the biggest obstacles to implementing online learning. As a solution, the e-learning system learningBOX requires no programming experience, and questions can be created simply by entering text in the quiz creation form. The cost is also low, at ¥30,000 per year for 100 user accounts. No other e-learning system is this affordable, simpler, and more functional. Please give it a try. 4. announcements We are pleased to announce that AWS EdStart has become an official sponsor of Tatsuno Information Systems. The main purpose of this AWS Edstart is to support edtech startups sponsored by Amazon, and the official website states "AWS EdStart, the AWS Education Technology (edTech) startup accelerator, is designed to help entrepreneurs build next-generation online learning, analytics, and campus management solutions in the AWS Cloud.
