| Research Abstract |
The aim of this research is to perform the experiments on communication-satellite-based distant education system, to deliver the engineer-oriented educational programs to private companies, and to make their evaluation from students'reponses.
In 1993, a debate classroom experiment was made under the co-operation of Harvard University Business School where debate is commonly used. In 1994, further evaluation of the experiment was performed. In addtion, we investigated the information-delivery system for refresh education, and had the following conclusions :
1. The actual classroom was delivered by Prof.J.Heskett from Boston to Tokyo (T.I.T.), and its effectiveness was confirmed.
2. A new method was developed for the evaluation of audio and video delay at the international satellite commuication.
3. The recorded classroom was analyzed to extract 5 dominant factors. 63 percents of students chose the debate classroom as a preferable one.
4. The computer-based conversation-analysis system was developed for the evaluation purpose of the debate classroom, and its effectiveness was confirmed.
5. An information detabase system suitable for refresh education was newly developed by using Internet link. Two types of system were effectively developed for different cases.
