    Realizing the future of learning through open education

    We are researching internet-based educational learning, including e-learning, from the perspective of educational technology. We are also conducting practical research on how to use education that has been made more accessible through open courseware and MOOCs, among other media, to improve the quality of teaching materials and the effectiveness of learning.

    Research

    arch is to improve the quality of education by improving the learning experience using the internet (e-learning) and promoting open education. To effectively implement e-learning, it is essential to develop teaching materials and implement evaluation methods based on instructional design theory. We also conduct research to enhance learning effects through blended learning, which is the effective combining of e-learning with face-to-face education like flip teaching. In addition, through “open education” activities such as OCW (Open Courseware) and MOOC (Massive Open Online Course), which provide learning opportunities beyond educational institutions such as schools and universities, lecture videos and educational activities themselves are made available to the public, and education is provided while involving diverse learners and experts. Thus, we are also conducting research to continuously improve the teaching materials and education itself.
