Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have been developing a next-generation editable electronic textbook education system called Gakuzai. In the Gakuzai system, an e-textbook is provided to teachers and students. In the Gakuzai system, user can removes (electrically hidden) the unimportant part of the long description of the electronic textbook although leaving only the important part. Teachers will be able to make in a short time the documentation for the class; students can easily create their own notebook.
A trial lesson was conducted using the Gakuzai system. One half of the students used paper textbooks and paper notebooks, while the other students used the Gakuzai system. At the end of the lesson, all students answered a quiz and a questionnaire. The average scores for each group were compared by Welch’s t-test. No significant difference was observed. The results of the questionnaire indicate that student academic motivation improved by using the Gakuzai system.
