On Effectiveness for e-Learning Courseware Design

Abstract

For autonomous learners of Japanese language, especially for the overseas' residents, speaking is the most difficult skill to develop when learning through Internet or e-Learning. The authors, Japanese language teachers and the Information Scientists, propose the effective courseware design for Japanese e-Learning by adopting video-taped class instruction and 3-dimensional video transmission technology. It equips different modules for encouraging learners to speak out-loud, giving confidence on pronunciation and keeping their motivation high.
