E-Learning Learning for Use in Schools [Part 1 Long time no see! It's Kitaoka in charge of marketing🍎, and we are now entering the last week of June. The weather has been unstable nationwide, and many of you may be getting sick due to the extreme temperature differences in some areas. Hot summer is already upon us! Through learningBOX, we will continue to do our best to provide you, our readers, with e-learning learning that is useful for school education! If you are interested in e-learning, but are not sure how to use it in real situations, please refer to this article and let's think together about how to use e-learning and how to utilize it! Click here to see the table of contents 　　　　 ------[Part 1] This time! ------ 1. unpimping from examples 2. setting goals 3. create study materials 4. divide them by subject 　　　　 ------ [Part 2] ------ 5. learningBOX account registration 6. group settings 7. setting up grade management 8. summary Pimping from an Example Let's take "Taro Tatsuno," a middle school social studies teacher, as a hypothetical setting and consider e-learning learning that can be expected and utilized in the educational setting. In this paper, we will discuss teachers' problems and how they teach their students as exercises for e-Learning learning! Basic Information Taro Tatsuno: In charge of third grade social studies Taro Tatsuno's PC level Computer-related information is at the level of gathering information on the Internet. No programming knowledge, PC operation level to create documents using Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Taro Tatsuno's concerns 1) There is a lot of variation in scores from class to class. (2) It is practically difficult to provide learning guidance tailored to each individual student. (3) The majority of work time is consumed by creating materials for classes and tests (4) Parents have high expectations and pressure (5) Students' interest in social studies is low and their motivation for learning is low We believe that many teachers in the educational field have these problems. Many teachers are required to achieve results (grades) within a set time frame, and the workload of "duties and responsibilities" for each teacher is high, and I believe that many teachers suffer physically and mentally while performing their daily duties. In addition to teaching students to study, teachers have other non-work duties, school events, and relationships with parents, and they are often in a position, low-positioned and across-the-board. I think those who have club activities and class/grade responsibilities are even busier. Based on Taro Tatsuno's concerns, let's start e-learning learning together, using our learningBOX in action, how to create a learning environment that reduces the burden on teachers and increases students' study awareness through e-learning learning! Goal Setting Mission ①Improve students' knowledge and motivation to learn ②Propose and create study methods that match each student's level ③Reduce time spent on creating materials ④Gain the trust of schools and parents (5) To get students interested in social studies through e-learning study Let's immediately create a design with learningBOX that will satisfy the above conditions (1) to (5)! Let's create learning materials If you try to create learning materials based on the big word (concept) of social studies, the entry point is so wide that you will not know where to start. Let's create learning materials by narrowing the scope and genre, and then gradually broaden the scope of study and improve the quality of the content. Recommended Question Creation Procedure First, divide the material into sub-items, medium-sized items, and large items. When the number of questions in the sub-items increases, organize the information into groups or categories. When the number of middle items increases, divide the information into large items and complete the composition. Image Diagram Let's actually create teaching materials with learningBOX! Major Subjects: Social Studies Middle Subjects: (1) History, (2) Geography, (3) Civics...etc. Subtopics: (1)-1Japanese History, (2)-1Japanese Geography, (3)-1Structure of Japanese Society...etc. Here are the quizzes we made 10 questions about Japanese history → History questions 10 questions about Japanese geography → Geography questions 10 problems about Japanese society → problems of society Comprehensive questions → Comprehensive questions Test questions close to the real test → Test Click here to see the difference between Normal Mode and Master Mode. Features of learningBOX Easy to create questions with ①excel and text. We recommend the "Question Creation Form" for first-time users. 2) Multifunctional question format (3) Images and videos can be inserted. (4) URL links can be embedded in explanations (5) Optional functions allow you to create a test that is closer to the real test. The quiz creation function offers a wide variety of quiz types and functions. ▼Quiz creation features include a wide variety of quiz types and functions, as well as the ability to embed video clips. Separate by subject Organize the educational materials created above by folder. Learning control features to aid course design Prerequisites can be set by using the constraint bar in the Content feature. There are two types of constraints: answer or view all questions and materials above the constraint, or pass all questions and materials above the constraint. *This constraint bar allows the learner to follow the procedure efficiently. Limit the number of lessons to meet your objectives By setting a limit on the number of times a course can be taken, you can make students take the course up to a specific number of times. This will help students to feel tension and concentration, which are difficult to stimulate in a regular class! You can assign materials to each group Depending on the level of your students, you can assign the materials you want to distribute to each group! Summary of the first part This discussion is going to be a long one, so I will break it up here. In the first part, we used learningBOX as an example to show how to propose learning methods, create teaching materials, and separate questions that could be used in e-learning based on Taro Tatsuno's problems. What did you think of this e-learning study using learningBOX that we introduced this time? I think it was a fresh new study method different from the textbooks, notebooks, and printed learning materials currently used in schools and educational settings. I am sure that study methods will continue to evolve with the times. We may have entered a turning point in terms of the "quality of education, flexibility of teaching methods, and education that meets the needs of the times" that we seek and require. In the second part, I would like to talk in detail about how to manage grades and registration based on the learning environment created by learningBOX, etc. In the second part, I will also provide more in-depth information about the operation and cost aspects of e-learning. or you are about to give up because of the difficulty of the operation. Our learningBOX will turn your anxiety into anticipation! We look forward to seeing you again in the second part! Thank you very much for reading this article.

Hello! I'm Kadota from the Systems Development Department! Our office moved on September 2, 2019! With that, I started to commute by bicycle. For all of you who don't get enough exercise, I highly recommend biking to work! Well, this time I wrote an article on the grand theme of "Study". Please take a look! Before we get to the blog, let me make an announcement about an upcoming exhibition this coming September 25 (Wed)-27 (Fri)! We will be exhibiting at Educational IT Solutions (Kansai EDIX) at Intex Osaka, September 25 (Wed)-27 (Fri), 2019! ▼For more information, click here. We are now steadily making preparations! We are planning to hold mini-seminars and other events on the day of the event. We will also have an opportunity to explain actual demo operations directly from our staff, so please come to the event! We are also accepting applications for invitation tickets, so if you are interested, please check out the 3rd 【KANSAI】Education IT Solution EXPO in INTEX Osaka. Our staff is looking forward to seeing you there! Now back to the blog! Click here for the Table of Contents 1. think again. What is studying? 2. what is studying for? 3. Studying is a luxury! 4. there are countless ways to study 5. Conclusion Think again. What is study? Study is important." No one can disagree with this, can they? In today's age of 100 years of life and rapid changes, it is necessary to continue studying even as an adult. So, what is "study" in the first place? I have thought about it again. According to "Kojien" (6th edition) To devote oneself diligently to something. (2) To study or learn a subject or skill. (3) To learn by gaining various experiences. (3) To sell products at a reasonable price. (3) To sell products at a reasonable price. (iii) To sell goods at a reasonable price. The following is the list. Three kinds of meanings have been mentioned, but I would like to talk about (1) and (2) this time. First, let's talk about (1) "To work hard with all one's might". Simply put, this means "to work hard. Secondly, 1) "to work hard" means simply "to work hard". (2) To learn about studies and techniques. To learn by gaining various experiences. To do mathematics. This is the image of "going to school," "learning a lesson," or "a new employee learning a job. Both meanings have the same sense as we usually use. What is it that you study for? Why do you have to study?" Everyone has probably wondered this at least once, haven't they? For children and students, the most likely reasons are "because I will have trouble when I grow up," "for higher education," or "because I won't be able to get a job if I don't study. For adults, there are "because I need it for work," "to get a qualification," and so on. Other reasons include "to fulfill my dreams" and "to enjoy my hobbies more. The above reasons, although worded differently, have one thing in common. It is "to grow up better than I am now and lead a better and more enjoyable life. When you are a child, you will often be reasoned with by adults rather than by your own will. On the other hand, those who are able to continue their studies as adults probably have many spontaneous reasons. (It's hard to do that when people tell you to, isn't it?) There are also many seniors who remain curious and challenge various things even as they get older. When you think about it this way, the more spontaneous the study, the more positive and wonderful the reasons are. Studying is a luxury! Now to the title, don't you think it is a great blessing to be in a situation or environment where you can study in the first place? As an extreme example, if we were at war or under attack by a natural disaster, we would not be able to study, would we? Philosophy developed in ancient Greece because the city of Athens had enormous power in the region and was at peace, meaning that they had too much time on their hands. (You've heard of Plato, Socrates, Aristotle, etc., right?) If the family was poor and had no food to eat, the situation might be like, "Don't go to school, get to work! (You have heard of the Socratesses, the Aristoteles, etc., haven't you? In Japan during the period of rapid economic growth immediately after World War II, workers who had graduated from junior high school were called "golden eggs," and this was the norm. Later, with Japan's economic growth, the high school & college enrollment rate has been steadily increasing. Today, one might think that "going to cram school" or "going to high school" is a matter of course, but of course there is a cost involved. Usually, students go to school with money that their parents worked hard for, but it is not a cheap price. According to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology's 2008 survey of children's learning expenses According to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology's survey of children's learning expenses, the annual cost of attending a public high school (full-time) is approximately 451,000 yen. Based on the above, we can say that being able to study is a very blessed and luxurious thing. Nowadays, there are countless ways to study. Studying is such a luxury, but today, there are many ways to study, not only by going to school. However, it is difficult for busy professionals to attend classes after work. So, is there any better means? One way to make good use of this is to use "e-learning. With the spread of personal computers, smartphones, and tablets, e-learning has become much easier to use than before. With e-learning, you can study efficiently in your spare time, such as when you are waiting for a train, or when you are traveling by train. And of course, our learning management system "learningBOX" is one of the "e-learning" services. It can be used by individuals, of course, but it can also be used for corporate training programs and tutoring schools to distribute materials to a large number of people, and it can also be used for student management and grade management. What's more, "learningBOX" can be tried free of charge. We hope that you will create an account to try it out and make use of it to improve your studies and skills. Click here to register Summary Have you thought about the idea of studying? Being able to study is a blessing. I hope you will make use of our e-learning system "learningBOX" to help you grow as much as possible. And, "I want my employees and staff to grow and have a better, more enjoyable life! If you are in charge of training and human resources at a company that wants to make your employees and staff grow and have a better, more enjoyable life! To those in charge of education! LearningBOX" is available at a price range that is easy to implement, even for companies that have felt that e-learning systems are too expensive and difficult to implement! We also offer a free plan that allows you to use the system for free and indefinitely. Please take this opportunity to register. Thank you very much for your cooperation.

This is Kidaoka🍎, our marketing manager. Due to the coronavirus, many schools have introduced home study and online learning. With more time spent at home for home study, many children and teachers are probably feeling stressed because they cannot communicate directly with their friends and teachers, unlike in their normal school life. In this article, we will introduce the "Message Box" function of learningBOX. This function allows you to send and receive messages to and from registered members and groups. Our e-learning system, learningBOX, allows you to easily communicate with your teachers and friends in addition to doing online learning. Depending on how you register and set up groups, it is possible to communicate among students or just teachers. Please refer to this article and make use of the message box. Table of Contents 1. what is a message box? 2. send a message to a member 3. examples of how to use the message function 4. summary What is Message Box? Message Box is a function that allows users to exchange messages within an organization. Using this function, it is possible to communicate with the learningBOX Development Division of Tatsuno Information System. Let's send a message to the members! Since this is an exercise, let's send a message to the administrator, "Dr. Tatsuno" ⇒ all members, and take a peek at the actual exchange using the "Student A and Student B" accounts. Please watch this video. *If you have difficulty viewing the video, please click the lower right corner of the video and watch it in full screen. Log in to learningBOX with Student A's account. Check the message box and you will find the contents sent by Tatsuno-sensei in the message box, so send the message in the same way as the procedure in the previous video. Log in to learningBOX with Student B's account. When you log in with Student B's account, you can see what Tatsuno-sensei has sent and Student A's messages. The oldest messages are at the top of the message box, and new messages are accumulated at the bottom. Review of the message box You can choose the recipients from "Group, Members, and learningBOX Development Division". If you uncheck the "Allow replies" checkbox, you will only be able to view and not reply to messages. When a member replies to a message in the message box, a notification will be sent to the administrator's e-mail address. For more information on how to use the message box, please refer to this page. Please refer to this page. ⇒How to use the message box Here are some examples of message box usage Using the message box in learningBOX, you can send announcements to the whole group or to a given "group or member". Since multiple people can write to a single conversation, you can communicate with your students without spending a lot of time and effort. 1. distribute the questions and have the students take the course Math quizzes can be solved here. 2. Provide feedback via the message box. In this way, please feel free to use the message box to check your understanding of online learning, to resolve your daily study worries and concerns, or just to chat or take a break. I believe that you have been forced to study at home and have lost a lot of conversation and communication with your friends and teachers. Studying is important, but sharing small messages with classmates may help children and teachers feel better. Conclusion In this article, we have introduced, albeit briefly, the functions and usage of the learningBOX message box. Using this function, you can easily communicate with other members or groups who have registered an account. You can communicate with your teachers and friends while you are learning online. It is also possible for students to communicate with each other and teachers alone. Please refer to this article and make use of the message box.

The Spread of Adaptive Learning [e-Learning Around the World]. Hello, my name is Motoki, and I am in charge of marketing. Thanks to your support, this is the third installment of the popular (in my opinion) "e-Learning Around the World" series. Following on from our discussion of flipped learning and MOOCs, this time I would like to talk about a keyword that is gaining more and more presence in e-learning every day: "adaptive learning. Adaptive learning. which is becoming more and more prevalent in e-learning every day. Click here for the Table of Contents What is adaptive learning? 2. Typical Services 3. Key words to keep in mind 4. Summary What is adaptive learning? What does adaptive learning mean? If you look up the word "adaptive" in a dictionary, you will find that it means "adaptive, adapting. Adaptive learning is a learning method that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to optimize learning materials according to the learner's academic ability and proficiency level. Simply put, it is a learning method that matches the learner's level. With the emergence and evolution of AI (Artificial Intelligence) technology, it is becoming popular in the field of education as a learning method that analyzes learning history data and provides learning content optimized for each individual student. To use a school example, until now, it has been common practice to assign homework and problems of the same level and content to all students in a class. Adaptive learning allows students to focus on areas of weakness or stumbling blocks and learn from the basics, or to excel in areas in which they excel. In online shopping, there is a recommendation function that displays a list of recommended products based on product search history and purchase history, such as "Here are the products we recommend for you" or "Here are the products you buy together". This is similar to the way the system works, isn't it? Anyway, when I think back to my childhood, I remember that if I was not good at a subject or a unit, I would go on and on without understanding it, and I would think to myself, "I wish this unit would hurry up and pass by! I remember thinking, "I wish this unit would hurry up and pass! It would be wonderful if the learning progressed according to the level of each individual. Typical Services Let's take a look at some typical services. First is KNEWTON. The representative of adaptive learning is Knewton (Newton), an American company that appeared in 2008. Knewton is a service that specializes in adaptive learning. As an example, the completion rate of one math course prepared at Arizona State University increased by 171 TP2T, the dropout rate decreased by 561 TP2T, and 451 TP2T students completed the course four weeks earlier than scheduled. One of the features of the program is a system that uses web-based tests to recommend the next best learning content and assignments to learners, allowing both administrators, learners, and parents to understand where they are stumbling and where they can move on. Other adaptive learning offerings include DreamBox Learning DreamBox Learning is an adaptive online learning site that focuses on math and arithmetic. ●IXL IXL has been introduced in schools in the United States. There is also information that the site is actually being used as homework in schools. The Japanese site also has actual problems to solve. Key words to keep in mind We have looked at representative services for adaptive learning, and it seems that as AI evolves and spreads in the future, adaptive learning will be one of the methods that are likely to revolutionize the learning style. Now, I would like to introduce some terms related to adaptive learning that you should be aware of. I will provide more detailed information on each of these terms in a later article. Here is a quick introduction. Education Big Data As the digitization and ICT of education progresses, much of the learning data that used to be paper-based can now be obtained in the form of data. Although the use of this data requires a sophisticated approach called data science, it is data that will change the nature of education as a whole, not only for children but also for adults. Learning Analytics The data analysis approach to learning using the educational big data mentioned above is also very important. Learning analytics analysis and measurement are likely to attract even more attention in the future in order to utilize the learning data that has become available as a result of the digitalization of education, such as various types of e-learning and MOOCs. Recommendation functions as educational support This is a recommendation function to support learners by utilizing educational big data and learning analytics. This function is familiar in e-commerce (EC), but in the case of education, it is likely to be even more useful. For example, we can expect various things such as recommended learning contents to overcome individual weak points or learning contents recommendation utilizing learner's attribute data (age, gender, hobbies and preferences). Conclusion Just as big data is driving change in various industrial fields, the digitalization of education → big data → the evolution and spread of adaptive learning, which means that the education field will be transformed in the same way. In this issue, I have used the example of adaptive learning in the U.S. and introduced some related terms. In the next issue, I would like to take an even sharper look at e-learning around the world. In the next issue, I would like to take an even sharper look at e-learning around the world. Thank you for reading to the end! Reference: Edtech will change the future Author: Masahiro Sato

How to give appropriate roles to members using learningBOX permission settings Hello! This is my second time to write a blog. My name is ⛄ Shinokura. This time, I wrote an article highlighting "Authorization Settings" for member management. Authorization settings allow you to set up role assignments for each account, such as "creating teaching materials, managing grades, assigning teaching materials," and so on. Thank you very much for your understanding. Table of Contents What are authorization settings in the first place? 2. how to set permissions 3. how to assign permission settings to members 4. detailed settings 5. summary What are permission settings in the first place? Our e-learning system (learningBOX) allows you to give authority to group members. Each member can be given a role, and a wide range of settings can be made, including "Administrator Authorization," "Teaching Material Management Authorization," "Grade Management Authorization," "Teaching Material Allocation Authorization," "Group Management Authorization," and more. For more information on authority settings, please refer to "Administrative Authority". How to set up privileges First, create an owner account with all permissions. After registering the account, click "Member Management" on the menu bar and assign permissions. Let's assign permission settings to members. Group Management Authority Authority to invite and edit members, create and edit groups. Authority to manage teaching materials Members who are authorized to manage teaching materials can manage [Create/Edit Contents] and [Create/Edit Folders] in the learningBOX. Grade Management Authority Members who have been granted grade management privileges can view the grades of other users. Grades of all users invited by the administrator are displayed by group, by individual, and by question. Authority to Assign Grades Members who have been granted the right to assign grades to specific users or groups can assign folders to specific users or groups. Administrator Privileges There are four types of administrative privileges, each of which can be set. The four types of administrative privileges are "Authorization", "Notification Management", "Email Template Editing", and "Settings Page Access". Detailed Configuration Methods Each user can edit a specific folder or group, or view group members' grades. Clicking on Group Management Permissions in Member Management opens a modal and allows you to set permissions in a pull-down format. Group Management Permissions allow you to invite and edit members only to the groups you have set. If you have permission to one group only, you cannot move members to other groups. With the Educational Material Management permission, you can edit and create educational materials only in the configured folders. With grade management privileges, you will only be able to view the grades of the course materials in the folder you have set for the group you have set. Conclusion In this article, we have introduced the authorization settings. By partially granting the necessary permissions to each member account, you can create a system that prevents users from moving to pages they are not in charge of. You can hide pages that you do not want to be viewed by unmanaged users and prevent accidental operations. The administrative authorization function can be combined in dozens or hundreds of ways, including partial authorization. You can configure them to suit your needs. Thank you for reading to the end.

How to Increase Learning Effectiveness with Blended Learning It's already the last month of the 2021 calendar year! This is Kobashi🐧 from Development. Have you ever heard of "blended learning"? In recent years, it has been attracting attention as a new learning (training) style that combines e-learning and group training. In this issue, we would like to briefly introduce "blended learning. Table of Contents What is "Blended Learning"? 2. advantages of blended learning Why learningBOX is recommended for blended learning 4. summary What is "Blended Learning"? Blended Learnig Blended learning is a training style that combines two types of learning methods: e-learning for knowledge acquisition and testing, and group training for discussion and on-the-job training. Although e-learning has become the norm as a form of learning, there are some subjects that cannot be mastered without hands-on training, and for these subjects, it is better to gather in person for group training/learning. In such cases, is group training alone really sufficient? In many cases, the majority of the training time is spent explaining basic knowledge and terminology, and the practical skills training is done at a snail's pace, with the result that the learning effect and results are not very good. In such cases, try to sort out the content of the training. Taking the example of "combining group training and e-learning," let's say Participants acquire basic knowledge through e-learning in advance. The instructor collects data on the students' learning status and conducts a questionnaire to understand the students' situation. 2. (2) During the group training, emphasis is placed on practical skills training and other activities that are only possible in a real group training session. 3. after the group training, participants can continue to follow up with e-learning and review tests to ensure continuity. This will dramatically increase the effectiveness of learning. In other words, "mixing the best parts of multiple learning styles to maximize the learning effect. This is "blended learning. Blended learning This is a form of learning in which students learn in a formal educational program, using materials and instructions provided at least partially through online delivery, in a situation where they can decide to some extent when, where, and in what order and at what pace they will learn. Students would still attend the school building, but would combine face-to-face classroom learning with computer-mediated activities (e-learning). Proponents of blended learning cite the ability to collect data on student progress and the ability to customize the instructional and assessment process as major advantages of this approach. (From Wikipedia.) Blended Learning References:. Blended Learning - Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Blended Learning - Japan E-Learning Consortium Benefits of Blended Learning The following are some of the benefits of incorporating blended learning into your training program. (1) By conducting a questionnaire before the training, the instructor can provide training that matches the learners' learning status on the day of the training. (ii) Participants' objectives and awareness of their participation in the training can be raised. (iii) Training is not one-way but interactive and meaningful (iv) Reviewing the material after the training with quiz-style materials and slide digests, etc., will help to consolidate the memory of the training. (v) Reduced scheduling burden and transportation costs for training participants as well (6) Acquire basic knowledge through e-learning in advance + Group training and classes + Post-training e-learning to consolidate memories Blended learning is also a type of blended learning in which classes are converted from an input-based to an output-based format. In addition to the flipped classroom, e-learning for review after class is the most powerful form of blended learning. Instead of a passive, one-sided class in which students simply listen to the teacher's lessons, interactive classes become possible. Since there will be a lot of transmission from the students, their brains will inevitably become more active as well, right? Inverted class One form of blended learning, in which students prepare for new learning content by watching video lessons, usually at home, and no lectures are given in the classroom; on the contrary, teachers give individualized instruction to students on assignments that would traditionally be considered homework, and students work on them in collaboration with other students. In this type of class, students work with other students on assignments that would traditionally be considered homework. Blended Learning References. Blended learning-Wikipedia Why learningBOX is recommended for blended learning You might think that blending e-learning with fewer training days would save costs for the organizer. But is this really the case? In fact, blending eLearning may actually cost you more. Some of the problems with eLearning in general include It is not cost-effective because of the cost of implementing a learning management system (LMS). It is difficult to create SCORM materials. It is difficult to create SCORM materials" "When I want to modify the contents of the materials, I cannot easily do it by myself. However, with learningBOX, you do not have to worry about the above. You can easily create and modify educational materials without any difficult knowledge. Moreover, significant cost reductions can be expected. If you have any questions, please rest assured that we have a generous support system in place. E-learning can be easily started by individuals or companies. *Further information on the functions of learningBOX can be found on the learningBOX usage page. Conclusion In this article, we introduced blended learning, which can greatly improve the learning effect by separating the parts of training that can be done on an individual basis from the parts that can only be done in group training, even if the content of the training is not suitable for e-learning. Why not blend learningBOX, which can be easily started with as little as 10 free accounts, into any learning situation?

E-Learning System for International Users Nice to meet you! My name is Mukai, and I am a sales representative. It's been almost nine months since I joined the company, and I'm learning every day. To begin with, I would like to talk about something that often comes up during meetings with our customers. One of the topics that comes up frequently these days is that we hear many people say that they want to use the system for training foreigners working in Japan. It seems that more and more foreign employees are being hired as part of globalization. E-learning is suitable for employee training, and we understand that many people are using it.

Currently, some menus are still in Japanese, but we are working to correct this as needed. Increasing number of foreign workers and communication problems The number of foreign workers in the country has doubled over the past few years. Their share of the domestic labor force is also increasing and exceeded 2% in 2018. According to estimates by the Japan Research Institute, if foreign workers are accepted at the current pace, their share of the working population is expected to reach 5-6% by 2030. Municipalities with large numbers of foreign workers Dantotsu No. 1 is Tokyo The number one ranking of localities with large foreign populations is Tokyo by a landslide. The number of foreign residents in Tokyo is 521,502, accounting for 20% of all foreign residents. Of these, approximately 229,000 are engaged in labor, which is also the highest number in Japan. The reason for this top spot is that many companies have their headquarters here, as well as educational institutions, which attracts a large number of foreign students and highly-skilled personnel in fields such as technology, humanities, and international business. Unexpectedly large number of Aichi Prefecture In second place is Aichi Prefecture with 235,320 residents. The percentage of foreign residents in Aichi Prefecture is approximately 9.2% of the total, and Brazilians are particularly numerous in the prefecture. The reason for the large number of Brazilians is that Aichi Prefecture is home to the plants of leading Japanese companies such as Toyota Motor Corporation, and many of them work there. There are also many foreign students living in the area. One reason is the high hourly wage. The minimum wage in Aichi Prefecture is the fourth highest in Japan, more than 100 yen higher than in Fukuoka and Okinawa, where there are many other foreign students. Third place goes to Osaka Prefecture, a popular tourist destination Third place goes to Osaka Prefecture. The number of foreigners residing in Osaka Prefecture is 225,269, or 8.8% of the total. The foreigners who are particularly numerous in Osaka are considered to be Koreans and Koreans. Osaka has become a popular destination for tourists in recent years. In 2009, approximately 11.11 million foreign tourists visited Osaka, which is the second largest number in Japan as a whole. The number of tourists visiting Osaka was approximately 1.58 million in 2011, a seven-fold increase in six years. Communication Problems with Foreign Workers Foreign workers are said to be difficult to train, and communication problems are said to be the main reason for this. Let's take a closer look. Cases where smooth communication is not possible due to language barriers It was difficult to convey words and meanings even if I wanted to pay attention to them. It was difficult to convey the unique and delicate Japanese expressions (colors and nuances) because they were not understood at all. Trouble caused by differences in values and culture It was difficult to convey my feelings to them because they did not understand my tatemae, which is a Japanese way of speaking. The rules of time were not well observed. We explained to them again, for example, "Please come to the office on time because the starting time of work is fixed. There was a time when even being five minutes late was not a big deal, and it annoyed those around me. Using e-Learning to Create a Comfortable Workplace for Foreign Workers Why do Japanese people find it difficult to train foreign workers? In addition to the "language barrier," many people feel "bewilderment at the differences in lifestyle and culture. This is thought to be due to the fact that when foreign workers become co-workers, they have more opportunities to come into contact with things that are unfamiliar to Japanese people, such as ideas about work and religious beliefs. With e-learning, you can teach Japanese culture, common sense, and manners using a smartphone or computer. Depending on the learner's level, they can learn Japanese language and acquire the skills necessary for work.

We hope that our e-learning system (learningBOX) will be useful for your company's security measures. Thank you for taking the time to read this article.

About Khan Academy, one of the beginnings of flipped learning in the U.S. [e-Learning around the world]. Hello. My name is Motoki, and I am in charge of marketing. I'm a newcomer to the company, and I'm also an uncle, but I'm looking forward to working with you. I would like to start off by writing a series of articles in the "e-Learning Around the World" series as a study for myself, as my knowledge of the e-learning industry is still very limited. This time, I would like to introduce "Khan Academy," which is said to be one of the beginnings of flipped learning in the United States. Click here for the Table of Contents 1、What is Khan Academy? 2、Features of Khan Academy 3、Influence 4、Summary What is Khan Academy (Khan Academy)? Khan Academy is an online learning site founded in 2006 by Salmar Khan in the United States. He originally created the site to tutor his cousin's children, who live far away, using web software to help them learn. At first, the system was designed to provide questions, and when a question could not be solved, the system would display learning content tailored to that question. Later, at the recommendation of a friend, he created instructional videos and uploaded them to YouTube, where they became popular for being "easy to understand through video" and "easy to review and learn at your own pace. The number of users began to explode, and the site developed into a full-fledged online learning site. （The number of current users is said to be in the millions to tens of millions per month worldwide.) Features of Khan Academy Khan Academy's stance is to "proceed with learning by asking questions, and if a question is not answered, the appropriate learning content will be displayed," and the videos themselves are positioned as supplementary materials. Kahn himself says, "The most useful way to learn is to solve the questions," and "The real source of our power is in the question software (level-checking test). Impacts that have occurred One of the most frequently mentioned impacts of the Khan Academy is the popularization of a teaching and learning style known as "Flipped Learning. Teachers at schools began to use Khan Academy videos as preparatory videos for their students. What is Flipped Learning? Flipped Learning" refers to a teaching style in which lectures, which are traditionally held in the classroom, are conducted at home via video learning, and problem solving and report writing are done during class time. What is Flipped Learning | About e-Learning | Quiz Writing and Question Writing Tools - e-Learning Starts with a Quiz There have been attempts to implement flipped classrooms since that time, but the burden on teachers to create video materials was so great that many teachers were unable to do so even if they wanted to. This led to an increase in the number of teachers using Khan Academy videos to prepare for classes, and the flipped classroom style has spread. Conclusion Before researching, I had a strong image of "the trigger for the spread of flipped learning," so I had an image of "the roots of video materials," but I was impressed by the fact that Khan Academy itself emphasizes "learning through questions and tests to check understanding, and using video materials to learn what you don't understand. I was impressed by this point. This time, we introduced "Khan Academy," which is said to be one of the first edtech schools in the U.S. We hope you will visit again next time.
