| Research Abstract |
Shiga University and Deakin University of Australia agreed to collaborate and establish mutual supporting system in flexible learning. Faculty members interested in cultural and social aspects of Australia and Japan, information technology and environmental education in particular have been involved in this project.
Achievements in three years are :
(1) to support counterparts in coursework-members of both sides visited each other and help their counterparts by delivering lectures and participating in workshops. They engaged in developing learning materials and curriculum.
(2) to establish "study tour"- Shiga University, with supports from members of Deakin University, started "Study Tour at Deakin" in 1999. By combining class works at Shiga, orientation program by TV conference system and class works and field trips at Deakin, students participated in the program learned wide range of Australian culture, society and nature.
(3) to develop multi-media learning materials-members of both sides produced digital materials to be used in a class, "life and culture in Australia" at Shiga University. Deakin members delivered lecturers and provided audio-visual materials. Shiga members video taped lectures, translated into Japanese, arranged materials in digital settings, and, combining them, made CD-Roms. They were used in class as experiments.
