Abstract
In the paper, a tablet-type device was applied to classes of structural mechanics and dynamics to improve educational effectiveness. Because additional comments, equations, markers, etc. were written or drawn directly on image of handouts from the device to a screen, utilizing the device leaded students to a better understanding of class contents. Questionnaires were carried out to students in National Institute of Technology, Oita College to research educational effectiveness and problems after the classes. The tablet-type device was found to be useful for students to deeply understand the structural mechanics and dynamics from the questionnaire results.
