IP restrictions are recommended to enhance security for online learning. This is Kidaoka, Marketing Manager. This paper introduces basic knowledge about IP addresses - how to set IP restrictions. e-Learning-based online learning, online classes, and in-house education are very convenient as cloud services that can be used from anywhere. However, the ability to access from anywhere also increases the risk of unauthorized access and the risk of personal information leakage. One solution to this problem is IP restrictions, which prevent users from logging into their accounts unless they use a specified IP address. Our learningBOX is an e-learning system that can be configured with IP restrictions to ensure security.

An IP address is simply a "number" assigned to a computer or communication device connected to the Internet. When using the Internet to browse websites or send and receive e-mail, it is necessary to identify the other party with whom you are communicating. The IP address plays a role in this process. Every terminal connected to the network has an IP address, which is assigned to identify devices on the network, such as computers, smartphones, and tablets, and serves as an address on the Internet. Basic Knowledge of IP Addresses Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia IP addresses are expressed using decimal numbers. The IP address is represented by a decimal number, and is called a "domain" when it is replaced by letters to make it easier for humans to understand. The Internet has a vast number of users coming and going. Who is viewing or accessing a website and where? The global IP address indicates the unique IP address of the user. This global IP address is unique and cannot be duplicated anywhere in the world. This is the same way that phone numbers and addresses do not duplicate! What is a decimal number? A decimal number is a way of writing numbers (notation) in which the base number is 10. It expresses numbers using all numbers from "0" to "9". ➡ 【 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 ] Connection Restriction by IP Address It is possible to restrict learningBOX so that only certain IP addresses can view the site. However, it is important to note that "IP restriction" here refers to global IP addresses, and there are two types of IP addresses: global IP addresses and private IP addresses, which are not used for Internet access. Keep in mind that it is the global IP address that is relevant to IP restrictions! How to check an IP address In this article, we will show you how to check your IP address using Windows as an example. In the case of Windows Step 1: Click "Start" and display the list of applications. Click "Windows System Tools" and then click "Command Prompt". Step 2: "Command Prompt" will appear. Type "ipconfig/all" and press "Enter" key. Step 3: Various network information such as IP address and MAC address will be displayed. Setting IP restrictions on learningBOX Starting from learningBOX Ver. 2.11, it is possible to set IP restrictions on the access source. How to set IP restrictions Please log in to learningBOX and go to Member Management > IP Restrictions in the side menu. Click IP Restrictions, and the screen will switch to "Login IP Restrictions". Restrict IP This function can be configured for each group. Click "Add IP Restrictions" to display a pop-up configuration window, where you can select a group and enter its IP address, then click the "Add" button to add it. Select the members of the group, enter the IP addresses that can log in, and click the Add button. IP restrictions are now set. Conclusion In this article, we have briefly introduced the basics of IP addresses and how to set up IP restrictions to prevent unauthorized access and information leaks related to the protection of members' personal information. Since it is very easy to set up IP restrictions on learningBOX, please refer to this article and try using IP restrictions according to your own purposes.

Motivate your students to learn! Learn how to create e-learning materials! My name is Kidaoka, and I am in charge of marketing. In this article, we will discuss the important points to consider when starting an e-learning program, including how to choose an e-learning system, tips for creating original content, and techniques for motivating students to learn! E-learning is not just a matter of implementing e-learning, but it is also a matter of how to make your e-learning system work for you. The problems of e-learning providers vary from company to company, such as "e-learning has not taken root in the company," "the operation and system are complicated and difficult to manage," and "the learning does not last long. On the other hand, there are many cases where e-learning has been highly effective. The first step to a successful e-learning implementation is to choose the right e-learning system. The most appropriate form of e-learning differs from company to company, school to school, and service to service. In recent years, more and more companies are creating their own original e-learning materials in-house instead of using commercially available content, and the key is to create content that keeps learners engaged and interested. Click here for the table of contents 1. how to choose the best e-Learning/LMS 2. the secret to creating content that keeps learners engaged 3. the latest techniques for motivating learners 4. learningBOX content features 5. summary How to choose the best e-learning and LMS When selecting an e-Learning system, it is important for the person in charge to carefully assess the "scale, form, and usage" of the e-Learning system that is appropriate for his/her company or school. What is the purpose of implementing e-Learning?　⇒ "What kind of e-learning is appropriate for that purpose? and choose an e-learning system keeping in mind the purpose for which your company is adopting the system. Three important points when choosing an e-Learning/LMS When selecting an e-learning system, we refer to e-learning functions, effectiveness of implementation, case studies of actual implementation, support content, and cost (price). In addition, why don't you also refer to the other three points we are about to introduce? Choose a service from a long-term perspective When selecting an e-Learning/LMS service, proceed in light of your company's current situation and challenges. While selecting a system that fits your current situation, there is no guarantee that your needs will not change in the future. A mid- to long-term perspective is also very important. Who is going to use e-learning? In order to utilize e-learning and LMS services in an optimal manner to address your company's issues, you need to develop an education plan that is optimized to meet the objectives of who (which department) will be in charge, on what themes, and for whom e-learning will be utilized. Consider ease of use for employees taking the course. When implementing an e-learning/LMS service, HR personnel should be careful not to think about the functions and usability from the perspective of the person in charge of the course, rather than from the perspective of the employees who will be taking the course. It is necessary to examine usability from the user's perspective, taking into consideration the need to learn how to operate and set up the system from the perspective of the employees who will be taking the course and, depending on the function, the person in charge of onsite training. What is LMS? An LMS (Learning Management System) is a system that creates, registers, and distributes learning materials necessary for implementing e-learning, and manages learners' learning progress and grades. Application Examples In the case of qualification test preparation In the case of learning to acquire qualifications, repetitive learning is an important point. Using a lecture video learned on a PC at home and then watching it again on a smartphone while commuting to work or school, or watching the rest of the lecture, enhances learning continuity. We recommend an e-learning system that supports multiple devices and responsive design for smooth learning across multiple devices. For Training at Medical Institutions E-learning at medical institutions requires not only a learning environment, but also centralized management of the learning history and qualification acquisition status of a large number of medical staff. In addition, the entire organization must share information on a wide range of knowledge related to patient care and life, such as disease names, medical record information, and knowledge of drugs used in treatment. In these cases, an e-learning system with strong learning history management and easy interactive communication within the system is required. Corporate Training The content and scale of training varies from company to company, such as personnel transfers and assessments, so an e-learning system with a certain degree of flexibility and customization is necessary. In some cases, the e-learning system must be linked to the personnel database. If the e-learning system that you have taken the trouble to introduce is rejected because it is "somehow difficult to use," "hard to understand," or "complicated and difficult to operate," it will not be suitable for long-term operation and company growth. It may become a temporary, ad hoc learning experience. In all cases, the one thing that must be kept in mind is the ease of use of the e-learning system. It is important that the system is intuitive and easy to understand, not only for the learner but also for the administrator! The Secret to Creating Content that Keeps Learners Engaged There are many commercially available learning contents that are essential for e-learning. However, each company or school has its own learning content and training style. Therefore, there are cases where it is inevitable to create original learning materials. When creating original materials in-house, the ability to create content that keeps learners engaged is an important point in operating the e-learning system. Many people who are in charge of e-learning encounter this obstacle after implementing a system. Here are some tips for creating engaging content from the learner's point of view. Create easy-to-understand titles Choose words with a clear and attractive title in mind for each content. This is an important point to encourage learners' desire to learn. Avoid difficult words and try to use titles that make the content easy to understand at a glance. With learningBOX, titles can be recognized at a glance From the content management screen, you can freely set course titles, thumbnail images, title names, and explanatory text. Learners can grasp the contents of the course material at a glance, allowing them to proceed smoothly to the training session. Add interactive devices! Interactive refers to "interactive information dissemination" and "a form of communication that allows information exchange rather than one-way communication. Make conscious efforts to create learning materials that attract learners' interest by utilizing audio, video, and animation in your learning materials. You will be amazed at how much more crisp and clear the learning materials can be than if there were none. learningBOX can handle a wide variety of content learningBOX has a wide variety of content functions. You can combine the functions and features of each content to transform a boring or boring training course into a highly original teaching material. ➡How to Use Content Management Be aware of origins and endings Define the objectives and goals of the course content, and design a course that will not get lost during the training. Creating materials with this in mind will turn on the learner's "learning switch"! Make the introductory part easy and make it progressively more difficult to create a flow that allows learners to learn without strain. Don't forget to include a confirmation test or summary at the end to consolidate knowledge! Using the learningBOX... Constraints can be set. This function allows you to set up prerequisites, such as the next problem to be solved after a specific problem is passed, from two conditions. ▼With the constraint bar in place, learners will not be able to proceed unless they have completed and passed the content. The Latest Methods to Increase Learning Motivation The advantage of e-learning is that learners can learn anytime, anywhere, at their own time and pace. However, on the other hand, it is said to be difficult to keep learners motivated. Recently, various methods have emerged to provide an optimized learning environment for each individual learner and to motivate learners, and these methods are attracting attention. Here, we will introduce gamification, which is used in the field of education. Gamification Gamification is a method of increasing user motivation and loyalty by incorporating game design techniques and game-like elements. By incorporating gamification into e-Learning, it is possible to create a system that motivates learners and makes it fun to work through to the end. Granting original certificates Using the learningBOX function, you can create and grant certificates that range from stylish to cute designs to give learners a special feeling. Grant certificates to members who have completed tests and training! The design and layout arrangement of the certificates can be easily configured to your liking. For more information on how to use certificates, please see this article. ➡Creating a Certificate Conclusion In this article, we have introduced the important points to consider when starting e-learning: how to choose an e-learning system, the secrets of creating original content, and the latest techniques to motivate learning.

Hello! I'm Motoki, the marketing manager🍠. It's about to get a little hot and humid here in Japan. This time, I would like to introduce a new release of learningBOX version 2.11, which we have not been able to introduce yet. Click here to see the table of contents. 1. learningBOX is now faster! 2. How much faster is it really? 3. Summary learningBOX is faster Starting with learningBOX version 2.11, we have improved the performance of the system and made it faster. (In short, the site is now faster.) Starting with this version, we have introduced the "AWS Global Accelerator". This "AWS Global Accelerator" is one of the AWS services that improves application availability and performance. Have you ever experienced slow response times when browsing the Internet or using services without thinking about it? I too feel better when using or browsing the Internet on a site with a fast response time than on a site with a slow response time. In addition, English support for learningBOX has been released from this Ver. 2.11, and we expect to have more opportunities for overseas customers to use the site in the future. As a system that can respond well to access from overseas, we have used the "AWS Global Accelerator" to make the site more comfortable for everyone around the world. As the operator of learningBOX, a Learning Management System (LMS), we also believe that it is very important for us to improve the performance of the system so that customers around the world can use the system more comfortably as we expand our services. Therefore, we introduced AWS Global Accelerator, a network service that improves availability and performance by deploying it in front of ALB, NLB, EC2, and other components that provide applications. How much faster will it actually be? So, how much faster will AWS Global Accelerator actually be? Let's check with the "AWS Global Accelerator Speed Comparison (speed comparison tool)" available on the AWS website. Source: AWS Global Accelerator Speed Comparison On this page, select the file size and click the "Start" button, and the results will be displayed for each region in turn. The data compares the time required to download a file from the ALBs in each region, and the time required to download the file "directly from the Internet" and "using AWS Global Accelerator. As you can see, the time required for downloading is shorter when AWS Global Accelerator is used. Conclusion There are other advantages to using AWS Global Accelerator, but we hope that everyone around the world will be able to use learningBOX more comfortably by improving the speed of response, one of the elements of the system's ease of use. Please keep in mind that the response time of the site depends on the quality of the client's network. The 2.11 version update adds many new features, including improvements to existing features such as "Certification," "English localization support," "B-to-B sales in the EC function," and "Order screen renewal. Please take a look at the release details. ▼learningBOX has been upgraded to Ver. 2.11 We will continue to listen to our customers' voices and improve our functions to be more useful to them. We look forward to your continued support of learningBOX.

Hello, my name is Kuroda from the Quality Control Department. Do you know all the types of content you can create with our e-learning system? LearningBOX has contents, functions, and learning environment that even beginners can easily start online classes. In this article, we would like to tell you about "how to choose learningBOX content," a topic we have received many inquiries about recently. It is not easy to get used to writing, but I will do my best, and I hope you will enjoy this article as well. Click here for the Table of Contents 1. types of learningBOX materials 2. how to choose learning materials 3. examples of use 4. summary Types of learning materials available on learningBOX There are currently a total of 15 types of functions available for our e-learning system! However, the abundance of learning materials is one of the strengths of learningBOX and the secret of its popularity! By utilizing these 15 types of materials, we are able to support all kinds of companies, schools, and cram schools, such as "online learning, newcomers, in-house training, and remote training"! How to Select Learning Materials With such a large number of learning materials, it is hard to think of learning materials from scratch. Is it possible to create the teaching materials you have imagined? Many people wonder how to combine the contents they have created. For those customers, we would like to briefly introduce the contents function of learningBOX. If you are not sure how to create teaching materials, please take a look at these contents. Quiz / Test The quiz function allows you to create and grade paper-based exam questions on the web, such as school tests, mock tests, and quizzes. The quiz function allows you to create questions in more than 12 different formats, including multiple choice, multiple choice, essay, and fill-in-the-blanks. The quiz function allows you to create questions in two modes: master mode, which is suitable for preparation and review, and normal mode, which is suitable for exam questions. We highly recommend this quiz function if you want to encourage learners to consolidate their understanding and memory. There is also a setting that does not tell (hide) the results to the learner. ➡Here is how to use the test mode setting function. Memorization card I am sure that many of our customers have seen or used memorization cards at least once in their lives. I also often used them to prepare for exams during my high school years and up until I was working. These memorization cards are the same as actual word cards, and you cannot look back at them randomly. But instead, you can visualize what percentage you have memorized by checking the "☑ memorized" box. Why not use it as an aid for studying for a test or for content you want learners to remember for sure? Unlike conventional memorization cards, these memorization cards can be prepped and reviewed as many times as you want with just one smartphone. Video/YouTube Video Besides uploading videos created by customers, learningBOX also makes it easy to set up YouTube videos. Simply copy the embed code and paste it into place. By using videos and YouTube videos as teaching aids, "you can keep track of who watched it, when, and how much on your results screen." The advantage of videos is that they can be watched over and over again, making them very useful for university lectures, experiments, and other content that cannot be memorized in a single session. *Please be careful to use the copyright of the videos. WEB page This function allows you to easily create an explanatory page. You can also add pages, so you can use it like a textbook. Not only simple text like a notepad, but also font size and text color can be changed. Worm-eaten notebook MUSHIBUKI Notebook allows you to easily create memorization questions in the form of sentences. It is used to memorize words that often appear on exams by hiding the words you want to remember with a marker. I also have fond memories of memorizing world history textbooks in high school by drawing green markers and covering them with red sheets. As with the memorization cards, the key point here is that you can visualize what percentage you have memorized as the number of hidden parts increases. Please use it for memorization materials before exams, etc. Questionnaire Collect multiple responses to a question. The administrator can download a CSV of the total responses from the question-specific tab of the Results Management screen. ➡Here is how to use the survey Reports Both text entry and file submission are supported, and administrators can grade the reports with comments. Learners can easily check the grading details on the score details screen or from the "Submitted Reports List" in the side menu. ➡Here is how to use the report function PDF file PDF files can be viewed and distributed to learners. Printing prohibition and download prohibition can be set. ➡Here is how to use PDF materials Attachment Used when you want to give data or files to users. You can use the data by itself or compress multiple data into a zip file for attachment teaching materials. Using this function, you can have learners download a variety of files as educational materials. SCORM teaching materials You can upload your own content or materials that have been used on other companies' LMSs. Two of our engineers have created SCORM materials in the past and introduced them to you. Click here to read the article about SCORM teaching materials. How to create and add SCORM materials using TensorFlow.js How to rewrite your own programs into SCORM materials and use them in learningBOX Typing materials This is a material for typing practice. You can set the font size, time limit, passing score, order of questions, and grading level, and wrong letters are displayed in bold red letters on the score details screen. iSpring Teaching Materials iSpring is available as an add-on to PowerPoint. iSpring allows you to shoot lecture videos based on PowerPoint materials you already have on hand for teaching purposes. This authoring tool is recommended for those who are considering in-house production of video presentations. iframe teaching materials If you specify "embed tags" to be used in HTML notation, you can register them as educational materials. If the embedded content is a quiz from our QuizGenerator, the score is not saved, but the history of the opened material can be checked on the grade management screen. In addition to our quizzes, you can also embed word cards and Google Maps. Certificates From stylish to cute designs, we can create certificates that give learners a special feeling. You can set the issue date and expiration date, and print, save as a PDF, or save as an image. The Certificate List screen allows you to easily check the certificates you have already earned. Here are some examples of use The teaching material I came up with this time is a vocabulary book to memorize prefectural capitals using memorization cards! The letters are centered and larger, and ruby settings have been added. Even adults can learn enough. Using Mnemonic Cards as a Self-Study Auxiliary Tool Combine the contents and use it as a course study. Use the quiz function to test the content learned on the memorization cards and distribute certificates after passing the test! Watch the video to see the series of steps. ▼If you have difficulty seeing the video, please view it in full screen.

What is EdTech? Hello! I am Motoki from Marketing. As a quick reminder, I would like to write this blog as a glossary of e-learning terms, "What is EdTech?" So, I will write a blog on this topic. Click here for the table of contents. What is EdTech? 2. the beginning of EdTech 3. what is learningBOX? 4. summary What is EdTech? EdTech" is written and read as "EdTech." (When I first saw it, I read it as "edtech.") This term was coined by combining the words "Education" and "Technology. It refers to new education and learning using digital technology and the apps and services that provide it. In Japan, it began to be searched for around 2012 and has been attracting more and more attention in recent years. (Reference: Google Trends) There are many other such "00Tech" terms. For example, "FinTech" is a word often seen on TV and in magazines. For example, household account bookkeeping apps are well-known. Another commonly heard term is "HR Tech," which is a combination of the words "Human Resources" and "Technology. These industry names followed by "tech" are collectively referred to as "X-Tech (X-Tech or Cross-Tech). And when you get down to the meaning of the word "EdTech," you will find that (to put it in a very cool way) EdTech" means "to revolutionize the way educational services are provided through technology. Now, what comes to mind when you think of "EdTech"? What comes to mind, for example, is "e-learning. What is e-learning? E-learning is a form of learning that uses the Internet. Learning that allows students to improve their skills at their own pace regardless of location, time, or learning content by using electronic devices such as PCs, mobile terminals, and other IT networks.

Start using the service for free! The Beginning of EdTech EdTech began in the United States, a country that has produced many global IT companies. The U.S. is a large country, and many companies are expanding globally, not only domestically, so there are limits to the amount of employee training and human resource development that can be conducted through group training. As a result, along with the spread of the Internet, e-learning and EdTech services evolved as a means of corporate human resource development. The services also became increasingly popular as a means of closing the education gap. ▼ Evolving EdTech services in the U.S. [e-Learning around the world]. Evolving EdTech Services in the U.S. [eLearning Around the World]. Educational innovations that began with EdTech have also spawned trends such as "STEM education. ▼ What is STEM education? In addition, EdTech services are now being created not only in the U.S. but also around the world in terms of educational disparities. Many EdTech IT ventures have emerged, especially in developing countries where there is a large educational gap and where the use of smartphones is rapidly increasing. ICT in Education in Japan Unfortunately, Japan lags behind other developed countries in ICT in education. Although the introduction of programming education in elementary schools has been attracting attention, ICT equipment, which is also the tool for such education, has not been well developed. There are many issues that need to be addressed in order to promote ICT in education, such as budgetary issues for the development of the environment and the structure for teaching.
