| Research Abstract |
We have completed a database for Japanese conversion using video and sound. The number of fields in the main database is five, From this year, the format for the relational video and sound database is the widely-used MPEG ; the database comprises a total of 3269 conversational records, of which 1097 new records have been added, and is searchable. The video, which is in the form of computer files, have also in their entirety been recorded onto video. Separetely, we have also developed a stand-alone system for video CD, and have carried out a comparative survey of both systems.
In order to measure the educational effect of the database, from September 1997 we have started using the picture materials utilizing the database on the Intensive Program and Japanese Training Program in the International Student Center, University of Tsukuba, and conducted a survey by questionnaire in order to assess the users' evalutation of the video materials. Regarding the time of use of the video materials, there many users who replied "for revision" and "for preparation and revision". This show that one of the strengths of a database using video materials is that it can provide comprehensible input. From now on we need to show the learners the methodology of how to prepare for class using video materials. Regarding the purpose of use, the majority replied "for comprehension only", "for repeating" and "for dictation", and regarding the users' preference for practice materials to be provided, many replied "Pronunciation Exercises", Comprehension Quiz" and "Dictatieparation, and devise a system where the user can "repeat" as revision practice and have his input checked.
