Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to conduct an extensive survey within and out of Japan on the possibility of the use of multimedia technologies for higher education and, based on its findings, to prospect a new learning environment in higher education towards the 21st century. In 1995 we conducted a fact-finding questionnair survey on the actual use of multimedia technologies in national, public and private universities throughout Japan with focus upon ; (1) practical education using multimedia, (2) condition of multimedia equipments, (3) the current issues surrounding the use of multimedia, and (4) future prospectives. We analyzed the result of this survey and further conducted a research by visiting 22 sites carefully selected among the universities in Japan where the use of multimedia technologies is prominent. Following this domestic research, in 1996 we conducted an international survey centering on higher educational institutions in North America on the current situation of on-line education and virtual university concept. The primary findings of this survey are ; (1) education shifting from teacher-oriented to learner-oriented, (2)learning environment becoming more open and flexible, (3) education becoming more globalized by the computer network.
