The license fee is charged on a pay-as-you-go basis based on the number of accounts. There are two types of licenses, the Starter Plan and the Standard Plan. The difference between the Starter Plan and the Standard Plan is the difference in server capacity and upload capacity per material. However, if you wish to use the EC function, there is a special license plan for EC called the "EC Special License." Unlike the standard license, it is a pay-as-you-go plan based on the amount of payment for course sales. With the EC Special License, the number of accounts and total data capacity are unlimited, so there is no need to worry even if the number of users or teaching materials increases. (The limit per teaching material is 500 MB.) EC Special License requires a contract for a dedicated server. ➡For more information about EC Special License, please visit the EC Special License page here.

learningBOX - size and size of video files

How large are the video files when creating e-learning materials?

Regarding the size of video files when creating e-learning materials I am Nagai🎮 of Quality Control, suffering from a cold that is not completely gone. This time, I would like to share with you a question that we have received many inquiries from our customers: "When uploading e-learning materials, how long is a video file and how much space does it take? This article is an explanation and a small piece of information in response to this question. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Click here for Table of Contents 1. what is a video file 2. how to calculate a video file 3. how to upload a video file to learningBOX 4. summary What is a video file? A video file uses the same principle as a flip book to show a series of still images one after the other to make the picture appear to be moving. A single video file contains a number of image files, and the file size naturally becomes large. The size (capacity) of a video file depends mainly on the numerical values of factors such as bit rate, resolution, codec, etc. Let's take a look at each of these factors in detail. Let's take a look at them one by one in detail. Relationship between file size and image quality Bit rate This is a unit of rate at which data is transferred. In simple terms, it is a unit that expresses "how much data can be transferred. The higher the bit rate number, the higher the image quality and the larger the video file size. Resolution Resolution is a numerical value that expresses the density of pixels in a video. In digital video, it is expressed as "a collection of very small colored dots (pixels). The unit of "dpi" or "ppi" is used. The higher the resolution, the higher the density of dots, and the smaller the resolution, the smaller the video capacity. Codec A codec is a device or software that performs the encoding (compression) and decoding (playback) of data. Handling large-sized videos uncompressed requires large memory, hard disks, etc., or compressing the video capacity to reduce its size. POINT Generally, to improve video quality, it is necessary to increase the resolution (fineness) of the video, and to increase the resolution of the video, it is necessary to increase the file size of the video. In particular, the size of the bit rate, which represents the file size per second of video, will greatly affect the quality of the image. However, if the bit rate is too large, the performance of the communication line and terminal will be greatly burdened when the video is transmitted over the Internet, causing the video to not play smoothly. Video File Calculation Method You can calculate how much the file size of a video file will be. The data capacity is calculated as follows. ▷Here is the calculation formula Video bit rate x length (seconds) ÷ 8 (convert bits to bytes) Since the amount of data per second is the bit rate, multiplying the time and converting it to bytes will give you the video file size. Exercise For a 10-minute video at 2.5 Mbps, what is the file size? →2.5Mbps × 600 (seconds) ÷ 8 = 187.5MB (megabytes) ▼Here is a quick table on video capacity. Please use it as a guide when uploading your video. The actual capacity may go up or down slightly when audio is added, but this will give you a rough idea of the capacity of your video. How to upload a video file to learningBOX When uploading a video file, the size of the file may vary depending on the settings used at the time of shooting and the performance of the equipment used at the time of shooting. You can check the capacity of the video file by right-clicking ➡ Properties. Click here to see how to check the capacity of your video file. We will show you how to upload videos using YouTube. In this article, we will show you how to upload a YouTube video using video content provided free of charge by the "IPA (Information-technology Promotion Agency, Japan)". (Source: From IPA youtube channel) Registering a YouTube video STEP1: First of all, login to learningBOX. STEP2: Click on "Content Management" and go to "Other Materials" ➡ "YouTube Video".

The word "Christmas" is derived from the words "Christ" (Christ, the Savior) and "Mas" (Mass, worship). The day to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ into the world about 2,000 years ago is called "Christmas. When the Christmas season approaches, we often hear "Merry Christmas! We use it without thinking about it, but not many people know the meaning of the word, do they? Merry Christmas" is an abbreviation of "I wish you a merry Christmas. It is a kind expression that wishes "I wish you a merry Christmas. Origin of Christmas Color Red is the color that symbolizes the blood of Jesus Christ in some Christian religions. Green is the color that symbolizes holly, a standard and decorative item at Christmas. Belonging to the coniferous tree family, holly never appears to wither, symbolizing its eternal life force. Incidentally, the body of the Christmas tree may be selected for the same reason as holly. Christmas trees are generally made of evergreen coniferous trees as lumber. Since ancient times, regardless of region or culture, colors have been thought to have meanings, powers, and wishes. Even in Japan, colors were used to indicate status, and certain colors were used to ward off evil. Similarly, in Christianity, specific colors are also associated with meanings and wishes. Who is Santa Claus? Origins of Santa Claus He is said to be modeled on St. Nicholas, a saint who existed in Asia Minor (present-day Turkey) in the 4th century. He was popularly known as a friend of the common people who performed various miracles (miracle workers) to help the unfortunate people. The legend that he saved a family by throwing gold coins down the chimney of a poor girl who was about to sell herself to the poor is said to be the prototype for the later "Santa Claus Story. Where did Santa Claus come from? Did Santa Claus come from Scandinavia or the North Pole? According to a legend about Santa Claus that was introduced to the United States in the 1920s, his hometown is the North Pole. In the 1920s, a legend about Santa Claus in the U.S. suggested that his hometown was in Finnish Lapland, which is located within the Arctic Circle. In 1927, the Finnish National Broadcasting Company declared Korvatunturi in eastern Lapland (called Ear Mountain because of its shape) to be Santa Claus' official residence.

Gamification and e-learning

Gamification and e-Learning Dear blog readers, this is Tanimoto from Development, making my second appearance! I'd like to start off by asking, have you ever heard of "gamification"? To be honest, I have only heard of it. So, in this article, I will summarize gamification! After reading this article, you may feel like you know what gamification is! So let's take a look at gamification together! Table of Contents 1 . What is gamification? 2 . History and Purpose of Gamification 3 . Gamification and e-Learning 4 . Conclusion What is Gamification? According to "What is Gamification? -A Comparison with Design History". If one were to give a positive definition of the term, it would be "the addition of game-like elements to an already existing object. Although often translated as "gamification," that is almost always a mistranslation, since gamification is not the creation of the game itself. (omission) In other words, it is a movement to incorporate elements of "games" into industrial products and various everyday activities, rather than making them into "games" themselves. Source: What is gamification? -From a Comparison with the History of Design In other words, it means to add an extra game-like element to a service or product. For example, a "point system" or "level-based rewards" in a membership service are examples of game-like elements. Why is it necessary to incorporate gamification? Let's find out how gamification came into being and why we need to incorporate it! History and Purpose of Gamification Gamification began to attract the world's attention around 2011, and the birth of the term can be traced back to the birth of a new word "gamification" for a very old idea. According to "What is Gamification? -A Comparison with the History of Design", the prehistory of gamification is Gamification is an attempt to encourage the "active participation" of learners in learning. This attempt is very old, and the realization that the learner's spontaneity is important in learning itself can be found even in the Analects of Confucius. (The study of spontaneous learning itself continues to be an extremely important issue in the fields of educational psychology, learning psychology, and gaming simulation research. Cited from: What is Gamification? -From a Comparison with the History of Design as. In other words, as a prehistory of gamification, we can see that various studies have been approaching gamification to encourage spontaneous and active participation of learners. I believe that "motivation" and "self-efficacy" are related to spontaneous learning and active participation, but the details would be very lengthy, so I would like to introduce them at another time. To summarize the definition of gamification and the pre-history of gamification up to this point, the purpose of incorporating gamification can be described as "to encourage users to participate voluntarily or actively by adding an extra game-like element to a service or product". The purpose of gamification can be expressed as "to encourage users to participate spontaneously or actively by adding an extra game element to a service or product. Gamification and e-Learning As mentioned above, learning and gamification are a combination that has long been attracting attention, and the e-learning environment is no exception. In fact, it can be said that eLearning is a great match for incorporating game-like elements on the screen and game-like element mechanisms! Our LMS, learningBOX, also has gamification elements, so you can try it out just like a game! Here is the gamification element in learningBOX! Only the image on the right shows a badge! This is one of the optional features when creating a question, and is displayed when the conditions are met by setting the "Mode" to "Complete Strategy Mode"!

With our e-learning system, you can even create game-like quizzes like this one! Click Start to actually solve the quiz. Get Started Summary Thank you for reading this far! I have only touched on the basics of gamification for those who are unfamiliar with it. I hope you have gained some understanding of gamification so far.

Harassment training via e-learning.

Using e-learning to combat power harassment

Hello! My name is Shiraki, and I'm in charge of Human Resources! Recently, our air conditioner broke down and we are enduring the cold... I hope you all are aware of sudden breakdowns! In this article, I would like to write about "power harassment" which has been widely covered in news and newspapers, and the benefits of introducing e-learning training to prevent power harassment. Thank you very much for your kind attention. Click here for Table of Contents 1. "Power harassment" is on the rise 2. what is "power harassment" in the first place? 3. Does your company/organization provide training on measures against power harassment? 4. If you neglect training on measures against power harassment, there are risks such as the following... 5. 5. e-Learning can raise the level of knowledge on harassment to a certain level 6. summary Power harassment" is on the rise. The number of consultations regarding power harassment among the inquiries at the consultation corners set up at prefectural labor bureaus has been increasing year by year. In addition to the increase in the number of power harassment consultations, the number of cases of depression and other mental disorders caused by bullying and violence in the workplace and compensated for by workers' compensation is also increasing. Reference (Increasing Power Harassment) The following cases have actually occurred Click here to see the power harassment victims in 2019. Toyota employee commits suicide due to power harassment, develops adjustment disorder, and receives workers' compensation (11/19/2019) The director general of the Education Bureau played betting games at a government building (11/18/2019) Director General of the Bureau of Education takes a pay cut for "power harassment"(11/15/2019) ...Power harassment by a colleague...Kawagoe City Council member seeks action(11/7/2019) References (Harassment-related news) Individual labor disputes are also increasing so much! Power harassment tops the list of most frequently consulted topics by employees Summary of Harassment Power harassment is the most common form of harassment. In a survey by Nippon Life Insurance, one out of two respondents said that harassment has occurred around them. According to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare's survey on "Occurrence of Power Harassment in Companies" (2016), 49.8% of all responding companies had actually received at least one consultation regarding power harassment in the past three years, and 36.3% of all responding companies had actually had a case of power harassment What is power harassment? The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare defines power harassment in the workplace as "acts that cause mental or physical pain or aggravate the work environment to those who work in the same workplace against the background of superiority in the workplace, such as job status or human relations, beyond the appropriate scope of work. Superiority in the workplace" includes not only job status, but also human relations, experience, expertise, and various other advantages. In other words, in addition to harassment between supervisor and subordinate, harassment between senior and junior employees, between colleagues, and even between subordinates and supervisors can also be considered as power harassment. Even if you think you have a vague understanding of the term, when you actually look into it, you will find that the definition of what constitutes power harassment is vague, and the line between words and actions is often indeterminate, depending only on your personal judgment. It was difficult for me to understand everything about "power harassment. This time, I made a quiz on the contents related to power harassment using our e-learning program. How well do you understand power harassment? The quiz contains 5 questions in total. And since explanations are included, we hope you'll take this opportunity to take the quiz! You can take advantage of e-learning! By making the quiz, you can check the lack of knowledge and understanding of harassment, as well as any gaps in perception. By visualizing the learner's performance data, you can analyze the level of knowledge and understanding of harassment within your company. Passing scores for the quiz can also be set arbitrarily, so you can raise the knowledge level of the entire company by raising the passing standard! Does your company/organization provide training to prevent power harassment? The results show that more than 80% of companies feel the importance of anti-harassment measures. While 80% of companies are aware of the problem, only just over 50% are actually taking steps to address it. Furthermore, this breakdown varies depending on the size of the company: for companies with more than 1,000 employees, the percentage is just under 90%, and as the number of employees decreases, the percentage decreases to less than 30% for companies with less than 100 employees. While large companies are taking firm measures to deal with this problem, small and medium-sized companies seem to be aware of the problem, but are unable to take action because the person in charge is often juggling various other duties. Neglecting to provide training in anti-harassment measures can lead to the following risks. Social risks such as compensation issues In some cases, companies have been required to pay tens of millions of yen in compensation in lawsuits due to harassment. The risk of neglecting harassment can lead to serious risks such as damage to the company's image due to compensation issues. Decrease in business efficiency and productivity Lack of employee motivation, deterioration of workplace atmosphere, and mental health problems caused by internal bullying and harassment can lead to a decline in business efficiency and productivity. Outflow of excellent human resources Deterioration of internal atmosphere and business performance due to harassment causes outflow of excellent human resources to other companies. We have learned that anti-harassment training is very important for the growth and development of a company. However, most of you probably do not know what kind of training or education you should actually have your employees receive. An Internet search will only find fragmented knowledge.

How to support learners' metacognition through e-learning

Hello, my name is Morishita from the Development Department. I am a new programmer who has been with the company for two months. Let me start by asking, have you ever heard of "metacognition"? Metacognitive ability" is now attracting attention as it is reputed to be effective in improving work ability. What kind of ability and why does it enhance work performance? In addition to work skills, there are other factors necessary for efficient work. One of them is "metacognition. This paper introduces the relationship between "metacognition" and "e-learning. Click here for Table of Contents 1. what is metacognition? 2. why is metacognition attracting attention in the field of learning? 3. the relationship between e-learning and metacognition 4. learningBOX has many functions to promote metacognition! 5. summary What is metacognition? Metacognition is the ability to objectively evaluate one's own thoughts and actions from a higher perspective by taking a step back. Since its concept was proposed by J.H. Flavell in the 1970s, it has been widely recognized in fields such as psychology, brain science, and education. If we can properly evaluate our own learning activities, we can continue to learn effectively. This is often explained by the concept of "metacognition. Recently, a joint study by Benesse Holdings and the University of Tokyo (press release in March 2019) was conducted and, to our surprise, the study reported that high school students whose grades increased had (came to have) "metacognition" to view their learning objectively. Did you know that "metacognition" is related to higher grades? According to these studies, being able to "understand what you don't understand" and being aware of "what you are working for" are extremely important for smooth progress in learning. In addition, Endo (2018) of the University of Fukui describes self-evaluation in learning as "metacognitive activity" as follows  People check and inspect their own cognitive processes as metacognitive monitoring, and then, based on the monitored results, improve and adjust their cognitive activities as metacognitive control. This metacognitive activity is the core of self-evaluation activity.                           Koji Tanaka (ed.), Takahiro Endo (2018). Understanding Educational Evaluation, 2nd Edition, Minerva Shobo (V-5. Children's Self-Evaluation, p. 61). Models of metacognitive activities You have another self observing (monitoring) yourself from one higher perspective and modifying (controlling) your thoughts and actions. This is also true in our daily lives when we view ourselves objectively and try to control our words and actions, etc. Why is metacognition gaining attention in the learning field? In the first place, human beings have the ability to. Not many people can evaluate themselves objectively (it is very difficult). The same can be said about study and learning. Because they are not able to "objectively" evaluate their learning goals and learning status. ⇒This is why "meta-cognition" is attracting attention. While you are in school, your teachers evaluate you. When you become a member of society, "senior employees" instruct you on the knowledge and skills necessary for work and the rules for working adults. In larger companies, there may be "OJT staff" or a "mentor system". However, it is usually rare to have someone who is always there to evaluate your learning progress. Especially the more complex the task is, the more you will need to judge and correct yourself many times to see if the work and your way of doing it are really appropriate. Improved metacognition has a significant impact on learning effectiveness. Here are some examples of how metacognition has affected learning effectiveness. Case 1: "Metacognition" Tracking the Same High School Student for Three Years Effectively Increases Grades Using three years of high school tracking data (703 children) of children who graduated from high school in March 2018, we looked at the changes for each child, and found that high school students whose grades increased had (or had come to have) an intrinsic motivation to learn and goals for the future. In addition, high school students with higher grades were found to have (or have come to have) "metacognition" ("metacognitive strategies") to view their own learning objectively. This trend was particularly pronounced among those who had been accepted to difficult-to-enter universities, suggesting that the presence or absence of metacognition is effective in achieving high learning outcomes, such as higher grades and university acceptance. (Reference: Benesse Education Research Institute) Case 2: Metacognition is involved in the environment and work necessary for the process of children's growth It was found that children whose grades changed "all the way up" or "rose" from the second to the third year of high school were more likely to utilize study methods (metacognitive strategies) such as "redoing questions they got wrong on tests" and "studying while checking what they do not understand. In addition, children whose grades "rose" were more likely to utilize these study methods. (Reference: "Metacognition" is effective in raising grades) Review of Metacognitive Skills POINT Enhancing metacognitive skills will develop the ability to analyze what is known, and to evaluate and provide feedback on the setup and work processes necessary to solve problems. Appropriate monitoring and control is expected to enhance learning effectiveness. If the learning objectives are vague, it is difficult to know how to study. Another reason for frustration is that the scope of the study is not clearly defined, or that students start with things that are too difficult. Have you ever thought, "I thought I studied pretty hard, but I didn't learn as much as I thought I would..."? Have you ever had such a situation? This may be because you are not able to evaluate and grasp your own learning situation in detail. Relationship between e-learning and metacognition ☑POINT E-learning can enhance metacognitive skills necessary for learning. E-learning systems can quantify and visualize performance data and learning status. E-learning systems can be set up to match the learner's level and goals. The system can also be used to analyze the results of the study, and to identify at a glance the type of learning process of each individual (e.g., rush-into, habit-forming, and run-away-from-the-moment types). ➡You can "further enhance your meta-cognitive abilities" by understanding your own learning progress and arrangements! It is difficult to keep learning while keeping metacognition at a high level at all times. e-Learning, by playing a part in metacognitive activities, will help learners improve their metacognition, which in turn will lead to more effective learning outcomes. learningBOX has a full range of features that can promote such metacognition! With learningBOX's grade management function, you can easily check the learner's learning progress information. Learning status and grade dating can be quantified and graphed to support accurate monitoring of learners. Individual grade information can also be checked immediately. In this article, we will introduce the system using the "Information Security Training" used in Tatsuno Information System's training programs. By actively using e-learning for learning activities, it is possible to accurately visualize the learning status each time. This not only stabilizes the accuracy of monitoring, but also reduces the burden of monitoring on the learners themselves, giving them more time to focus on appropriate control and higher-level monitoring (their own more detailed thought process), which is expected to support the improvement of learners' metacognition.

Conclusion In this article, we have introduced the metacognitive skills necessary for effective work. In order to produce effective learning outcomes, appropriate self-assessment is necessary. Metacognitive activities, the core of self-evaluation, should be based on the results of "monitoring (confirmation and inspection)" and "control (improvement and adjustment). e-Learning visualizes (data) the learning status and supports accurate monitoring of learners.
