In these days personal computers (PCs) became an essential part of today’s school education. However teachers or lecturers meet difficulties to obtain the information about how all the students operate computers or which softwares they use. In this work we construct a teaching assistant system which acquires information about the student’s computer operation and analyzes the information. The system, that is called a TSUNA-TASTE, consists of four major components. The first component is a distributed agent that is installed in each student’s personal computer and acquires the student operation information. The second component is a teaching assistant server that communicates with the agents and analyzes the information. The third component is a database system which stores the student operation information and other configuration data. The fourth is a communication system using a WWW server and a browser. In this paper we present and discuss a design concept of the system and the details of each component.
