Outline of Final Research Achievements

It have been found that much part of one’s learning process are accomplished in the informal learning, but its details were not analyzed sufficiently in a real context. In this research, we analyzed the relationship between formal learning and informal learning, with recording learner’s activity on PC exhaustively and building the exhaustive activity history database that make us them visible and analyze in versatile manner. With reading the learners’ exhaustive activity log for the half year by the researcher, it was implied that the learner do the informal learning actively in formal learning time. And an application possibility to that the class is checked by near-real time using the history and that a learner checks his learning was suggested.
