Research Abstract

The objectives of this research are to explore possibilities of e-learning language contents and to make course wear, English, German and French, which work on course management system, "Web OCM" already explored by ourselves. These contents are made as open contents for any educational institutions. Our contents try to be standard contents for Japanese University foreign language learner for which we established Committee of Foreign Language for Cyber University.
These contents are already on the CMS, and partially given as experimental foreign language class.

These contents are going to be decomposed into smaller module unit for further easy use for classroom ordinary scene in Japanese Universities.
