Summary What is e-learning learning? It is a form of learning that uses the Internet. It is a learning system 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 IT networks. e-Learning is a learning method that is attracting attention and expectation in various fields, including personal career development, hobby learning, certification exams, and understanding training content. This is a learning method that is attracting attention and expectation in a variety of fields, such as personal career development, hobby study, certification exams, and understanding of training content. It is used not only for personal use, but also as learning materials for in-house training programs. Creating math problems with learningBOX With learningBOX, you can easily create and register questions. You can create questions from a question creation form, a text file, or an Excel file. If you are not confident in creating questions, we recommend the quiz/test in the question creation form. If you have a large number of questions, we recommend using the Textbook if speed is important to you. If you want to register a batch of questions in a format you are familiar with, we recommend Excel You can choose between "Master and Normal Mode" for creating and practicing questions Features of Master Mode Master Mode is a so-called "repetitive learning" mode. Repetitive learning promotes memory retention. We have created some math exercises using Master Mode. Please try it out! We have created a wide variety of question types such as multiple choice, correct/incorrect, multiple choice, short answer, fill-in-the-blank, and sorting questions, which only learningBOX can provide! You can create even more customized questions by using the *Options feature! ★ You can change the title and starting message, limit the number of questions, and so on. You can also set the learner's grade, hide answers, pass mark, time limit, etc. Randomization of questions and choices is recommended for preparation, review, and re-study.

GeoGebra," a math learning support tool Now, I have explained how to study mathematics using learningBOX, but when I look back on my own study of mathematics, the content of study became much more difficult as the grades increased, and it became more complicated to visualize 'complex expressions and functions, algebra, geometry, calculus, etc.'. I often sighed to myself, "If only the equations in these problems could be expressed in graphs and figures, I would understand them better." I often sighed. But nowadays? However, nowadays, there are convenient apps for math teaching materials! What's more, you can visualize it! Furthermore, the data you create can be used to create questions for learningBOX. You can easily create graphs using this tool. This application is a learning support application for mathematics covering all fields of mathematics from junior high school to university. It is free to use for educational and learning purposes. It is useful for creating teaching materials and problems for classes, and it will also help students to better understand what they are learning. Graphics views created with Geogebra can be exported in png/pdf/eps/svg/emf format via the "Export Images" menu. In this case, I exported in png format. The curves did not become blurry or jagged even when the image size was scaled up or down. You can also export videos as GIF animations. This is very useful for graphing tools. If you are interested, please check here. Conclusion In this article, we introduced how to create questions and how to use learningBOX to improve your math grade. learningBOX is an e-learning system that allows those who do not know how to program or operate a computer to start learning. LearningBOX is a tool that allows even those who do not know how to program or are not good at using computers to start e-learning.

What are the advantages of implementing e-learning for corporate training? The day before yesterday was Tanabata. What wishes did you write on your tanzaku strips? I asked, "May this be a year with few natural disasters. It will be Obon in a little while. I am Kitaoka🍎, in charge of marketing, and plan to return to my hometown for the Bon Festival. Well then! In this issue, I would like to talk about the advantages of implementing e-learning learning for in-house training. Thank you very much for your cooperation in this article. Background of e-Learning Attention E-learning is a learning system that uses the Internet. Currently, e-learning is used in various fields, such as skill/career improvement, hobby learning, understanding of business content, and sharing of ideas, and is used not only for personal use but also as learning materials for in-house training. In the late 1990s, when personal computers began to spread around the world, e-learning spread quickly, and in the 2000s, with the promotion of the E-Japan concept by the Japanese government, e-learning became even more widely recognized in Japan. In this article, we would like to explain the prevalence of e-learning in Japan and how it is used in the business scene in today's environment where it is easy to create e-learning programs. Table of Contents 1. the spread of e-learning 2. e-Learning in Business 3. e-Learning Continues to Grow in Business Applications 4. advantages of e-learning for corporate training 5. summary The Spread of E-Learning The history of e-Learning dates back to the 1990s. At that time, PCs were something special, used only by a few users, such as those who needed them for work or research, or those who were computer-savvy. However, with the development of information technology and the spread of networks, prices dropped dramatically, and the environment shifted to one in which anyone could easily participate. As a result, there has been a great deal of anticipation and interest in e-learning, which can be done "anytime," "anywhere," and "easily. The high affinity between learning and training content that should be conducted spontaneously and continuously and learning methods using electronic devices such as PCs, smartphones, and tablets has become clear, and this has led to widespread attention and use in a variety of fields. E-learning in the business world Unlike conventional correspondence courses, which are conducted by mail, e-learning allows students to learn on their own initiative, and to prepare and review as many times as they wish according to their own learning status. e-learning e-learning system enables us to educate a large number of learners at once, thereby significantly reducing the burden on teachers, personnel costs, and other educational costs. Managers, companies, and human resource managers, who were attracted to the e-learning system's ability to provide equal learning opportunities and to reduce labor costs, began actively adopting e-learning as a new learning format to replace group training (group education). E-Learning Continues to Increase in Business Applications When Internet-based e-learning first began to be used in business, most companies installed a learning management system (LMS) for e-learning on their own servers and had a system administrator manage the system (on-premise type). However, because of the product knowledge and advanced management skills required to use and maintain the system, it was a significant burden for companies, and was used only by large companies that could secure personnel with strong system management skills and could expect high implementation effectiveness. However, this situation has changed dramatically with the increase in the amount of data that can be sent and received over network lines. Instead of storing the system and data on a server within the company, a so-called cloud-based learning management system has emerged, in which the company that developed the e-learning learning management system acts as the management company, using a shared server for system updates and data management. This has greatly lowered the hurdles for introducing e-learning in small and medium-sized companies. Advantages of e-Learning for Corporate Training The introduction of e-Learning can significantly change the learning environment within a company. By taking full advantage of the functions of the e-learning learning system, both the employees (learners) and the company (provider) can realize many benefits. Let's take a look at the benefits for the learner In order to create and maintain a learning environment where employees want to learn, providers need to understand the benefits e-learning offers to the learner. e-learning offers the following benefits to the learner ▼ The ability to learn at their own convenience. To conduct a regular training course, detailed arrangements are made for the date, time, and location of the training, as it requires the preparation of instructors and a training location. However, employees who are too busy with their day-to-day work to coordinate their work with training dates and times cannot easily apply for training if they want to check their understanding of the content of their work or further improve their skills. E-learning, on the other hand, allows employees to learn at their own pace in the little time they have between tasks or during their leisure time. The ability to learn "anytime" and "anywhere" is the greatest advantage that e-learning offers to learners. Can be used as a business manual E-learning is not only good for reviewing and improving skills. By organizing various information and know-how related to work in an easy-to-understand manner and publishing it as data that can be freely accessed by any employee, it is possible for employees to solve questions and issues that arise in their work or study by themselves. In addition, by sharing problems that cannot be solved by individual efforts alone through information exchange tools such as bulletin boards and chat rooms, employees can grasp clues to solving problems and gain cooperation in solving them. ▼ Easily evaluate training Self-analysis is essential in order to link learning to growth. However, evaluating one's own learning requires a certain amount of preparation and procedure, making it difficult to continue, and the time and effort involved often leads to frustration and frustration in mid-stream. However, with an e-learning system that can record learning history, it is possible to visualize learning results and progress in graphs and numerical values, greatly reducing the burden of self-assessment of learning content. By understanding one's strengths and weaknesses correctly, rather than simply checking the progress of drill and quiz scores, learning efficiency will greatly increase, and the motivation of learners who have realized the benefits of learning will be further heightened. ▼ Eliminate concerns and worries about work Because there are few opportunities to receive personal guidance and advice from instructors during group training, reluctant participants may not be able to properly assess their own level of learning and achievement, and may return to their work without resolving questions that arose during the course of training. However, in such a situation, they may not be able to confidently start their work, which may lead to a decrease in work efficiency and loss of confidence. In contrast, e-learning makes it easy to provide individualized care, so learners can feel free to ask any questions they may have. Appropriate feedback provided by an instructor who fully understands the importance of the feedback increases the learner's sense of security and confidence in their understanding, which in turn improves their motivation to learn and the quality of their work. Conclusion This paper has briefly discussed the background to the growing interest in e-learning for corporate training and the benefits of e-learning for corporate training. e-learning's catchphrase "anytime, anyone, easy" is likely to become a catchphrase that will be increasingly needed in the future. It is likely to become a useful new hint for learning, education, and teaching methods that have been difficult to implement with concrete measures due to the expansion of the gateway to learning. We will follow the development, activities, and trends of e-learning learning from time to time and report back to you again. Thank you very much for your interest.

E-learning for easy in-house compliance training Nice to meet you! This is my first appearance on the blog, and I am Shiraki, a human resources manager. I am greatly shocked by the appearance of slugs in several places in my home and their invasion into the house, probably due to the recent rainy season.... I hope the rainy season ends soon! Now please enjoy the body of this blog. Click here for the Table of Contents 1. do you have any of these problems? 2. easy compliance training with e-learning 3. easy to check who has received training 4. summary Are you in charge of "Human Resources and Training" and have any of the following problems? We would like to conduct compliance training that is difficult in content in a simple way other than by giving lectures. We do not know who has or has not taken the training, or the attendance history of our employees. In this article, I would like to tell you how to solve the above problems. I was one of the people who were suffering from this problem as I am writing this article, and I hope to reduce the number of people with this problem by even one person. E-learning for easy compliance training How can we easily conduct compliance training that is difficult in content?" We believe that there are many people who wonder about this question. In fact, some companies may invite lecturers for compliance training or have their employees attend compliance seminars. Our e-learning system, learningBOX, allows you to register teaching materials in a variety of formats, including "PDF teaching materials" and "video teaching materials. ▼ (Although unrelated to compliance,) videos and PDFs can be viewed as follows. LearningBOX can also register "ispring materials," one of the e-learning materials, although they are a little more challenging. The "ispring materials" can be used to conduct simulations as if they were games, and audio can be added to the materials, so that training can be conducted just like a seminar. In this way, e-learning makes it easy to conduct compliance training with difficult content. Easy confirmation of who has received the training When you see the title, many of you may think, "Is this really possible?" I am sure there are many people who think "If it is so easy to do, I have already done it. Even I thought, "If it were that easy, I would have done it already. One of the functions of our e-learning system, learningBOX, is the "grade management function". This function allows you to check whether or not a trainee has taken the training course, and it also displays the time required to take the course, making it easier to know whether or not a trainee has taken the course and whether or not he or she has skipped a step. Since learningBOX has such convenient functions, we hope that those in charge of education will take this opportunity to consider the introduction of e-learning for their in-house training! Conclusion The content of compliance training may vary from company to company. While there are of course methods such as "seminars and inviting lecturers," e-learning can be a great way to learn more about compliance. "Company's original compliance training" "Company can confirm whether employees have taken the training" "You can confirm whether or not your employees have taken the course." and so on. There are various advantages. We hope that this will be an opportunity for you to review your own training programs and new employee training programs. Thank you very much for taking the time to read this report.

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. Thank you for taking the time to read this article.

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!

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.

Nice to meet you. My name is Yokoyama🐈, and I am a developer. Have you ever heard of STEM education? This is an educational model that started in the United States in the 2000s. This paper introduces STEM education, which is attracting attention around the world. Click here for Table of Contents 1. what is STEM education? 2. STEM Education Overseas 3. STEM Education in Japan 4. summary What is STEM education? STEM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics, and was proposed by the National Science Foundation in the 2000s. STEM education was originally initiated to increase enrollment in science and engineering fields in order to increase global competitiveness in science and technology. Today, the concept has expanded and diversified to include various related concepts, such as STEAM education with the addition of Art and STREAM education with the addition of Robotics, as creativity and sensitivity are becoming increasingly important in preparation for a super-smart society. It is not just education in science and engineering fields, Emphasis on practical skills From subject-specific education to cross-disciplinary education hands-on, creative, and proactive introduction of new technologies emphasis on integration and diversity of people: ensuring fairness of educational opportunities Emphasis on value of K-12 (K-12 elementary education) Emphasis on STEM teacher development and other initiatives are being undertaken around the world as a comprehensive education closely linked to society and creativity. STEM Education Overseas STEM education began in the U.S. and is now being actively pursued as a national policy in countries around the world. Country Name Background Specific Initiatives United States of America Government-led Promotion of IT Human Resource Development, EdTech Penetration, and STEM Education Middle-income class faces crisis amid automation by robots and AI Charter Schools Emerging to Break Away from Conventional Education Schools utilizing EdTech services such as adaptive learning, MOOCs, LMS, etc. Project-based learning-centered schools with cross-enforcement to develop soft skills (non-cognitive skills, GRIT, etc.) through a charter school system with open-ended curriculum China By 2025, China faces a severe shortage of human resources in areas critical to its future economic development Premier Li Keqiang advocates "mass entrepreneurship and universal innovation China STEM Education 2029 Innovation Action Plan Shanghai "STEM+" Education Research Center Israel Recognition that the development of scientific and technological human resources is essential for the country's continued development due to its historical/military background STEM education is introduced from an early age. In particular, science and technology kindergartens in partnership with high-tech companies allow students to learn about robotics, computers, space, and more. STEM education with special emphasis on programming and cyber security Singapore Traditionally emphasized the importance of nurturing the elite who will be at the helm of the country Particular focus on fostering human resources for key industries such as IoT, robotics, AI, biotechnology, etc. Recently introduced "humanistic education" to nurture non-cognitive skills Providing a generous, supported AI education program for young professionals to strengthen the country's AI human resource capacity Integrated program for secondary education and college preparatory education Personalization of learning and cross-disciplinary knowledge understanding and utilization through EdTech seems to be the global trend. STEM Education in Japan STEM education efforts in Japan seem to be mainly conducted by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has been conducting Super Science High Schools since 2002. The MEXT aims to develop future international science and technology-related human resources, The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) has designated high schools that provide advanced science and mathematics education as "Super Science High Schools" in order to develop future international science and technology professionals, Development and implementation of curricula that are not based on the Courses of Study, and promotion of problem-based research, Since 2002, the program has been supporting experiential and problem-solving learning through observation and experimentation. Source: Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology/Super Science High School Furthermore, various measures are being taken to fully implement programming education in elementary schools from FY2020. The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) has set forth three pillars for educational reform: "STEAM-ization of learning," "Independence and individual optimization of learning," and "Creation of a new learning foundation. STEAM-ization of Learning With each student's unique excitement at the core, "knowing" and "creating" will be circulated to create a learning environment that integrates the humanities and sciences. Independent and personalized learning Learning that allows students to choose how they learn based on their individual cognitive characteristics and level of achievement. Creation of a new learning foundation Learner-centered, digital-first, seamless schooling with society. In Japan, as in other countries, EdTech is being used to personalize learning, and to understand and utilize knowledge across the board. Conclusion STEM education is not only education in science and engineering fields, but also comprehensive education to "create and utilize AI and create new values" for a super-smart society.

I want to type quickly and accurately, but I always end up looking at the keyboard while typing.　　　　　　　　I think everyone has his or her own problems. Advantages of improved typing Reduction in typing speed and spelling errors will reduce the amount of time spent on office work. Increased work efficiency You will be able to notice typing errors more quickly. You will be able to work with confidence as you become less computer illiterate. Typing is a seemingly simple task of "just typing on the keyboard. However, our brains accurately determine the meaning and content of words, and work in and out instantly. Keyboarding quickly and accurately based on the information processed is a more complex act than one might think. To perform this task efficiently, quickly, and accurately, daily repetitive practice is the fastest way to improve your typing. Conclusion What do you think of "typing materials" that allow you to practice typing as an e-learning training program? We hope you have been able to experience the fun of typing through hands-on experience. Although typing speed and accuracy cannot be dramatically improved in a day or two, acquiring the skill to type accurately will give you the skills you need in your company, such as improving the efficiency of your office work.

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.
