TRAWEEK (1988) pointed out: "¨But assuming that the practice of physics is also being reproduced in some form, there are vast differences between the way high school physics students participate in and give meaning to their activity and the way professional physicists do,¨". The sense of values brought up in the school often underestimates a scientific practical experience. This paper shows that "scientific practice" and "collaborative work" (including "vocational communities") are the essence of scientific and technical education from the reviews of recent theoretical researches. Based upon these concepts, this paper introduces recent e-Learning practices on scientific and vocational education, and then it shows they have many possibilities that the legitimate learning, which is hardly seen in conventional schools, can be performed.

A learner who can solve a problem cannot always understand the problem adequately. In order to deeply understand a problem, it is effective that he/she poses various problems which can be solved by the solution method of the problem. Moreover, after problem posing, it is important for him/her to consider and indicate relations between the problems posed by him/her. In order to let the learner think about the relations, we propose a support environment for learning by describing "problem map". The "problem map" is a kind of semantic network where a node is a problem and a link describes relations between two problems. In order to make the problem map, he/she has to consider the content of each problem and find the relations between them. We are developing the support environment for making the problem map in arithmetic learning. The system cannot only provide learners with workspace to make problem map, but also diagnose problem maps made by them.

Since students were used to being given the information for solving a problem, they who are becoming weak to discover a problem, discover the information for solving it and solve a problem using it are increasing. It is required by thinking personally to learn and improve the capability for solving a problem. For that purpose, the study which it not only memorizes the given information, but solves a problem by what the student itself considers is effective. In order to offer the learning environment, we propose the study form which makes the mutual conversion between the reverse polish notation and infix notation. This study form has combined group learning and self learning with Problem-Based Learning, makes the student think, and makes the study which solves a problem experience, by making the student notice a mistake in process of study. We discuss the learning support system which supports such study effectively.

The purpose of this study is to design an elementary science lesson supported by Web Knowledge Forum, a CSCL system, and examine how this system support students' collaborative learning. This lesson is about "How things dissolve" for 5th grade students. Analysis of on-line interaction on Web Knowledge Forum reveals that students can deepen their understanding by using knowledge of other students. Analysis of off-line interaction in face-to-face setting reveals that on-line interaction is used as a resource in off-line interaction to facilitate students' understanding.

We developed an intelligent learning environment for learning by problem posing (POP-B) and used POP-B at several elementary schools. In the result, we could show that 4th grade students could enough use POP-B and mastered a problem posing through learning activity of POP-B. In this paper, we examined whether POP-B had an effect on arithmetic ability through using POP-B at 4th grade classes in an elementary school, and we report the result of the examination. In the examination, we prepared two kinds of group; students of one group used POP-B and students of the other group didn't use it. So, we used two kinds of popular tests to measure an effect of arithmetic ability; one was a problem-solving test, the other was a problem-categorization test. In the results, there were effects at two parts of a group where students used POP-B. One is a subgroup where students can enough solve problems although they can not categorize problems before using POP-B. After using POP-B, they have made clearly progress in the problem-categorization test. The other is a subgroup where students can enough categorize problems although they can not solve problems before using POP-B. After using POP-B, they have made clearly progress in the problem-solving test.

The aim of the present study is to develop a new learning material for learning of the relationship between biota and habitat environment including anthropogenic disturbances, using numerical models representing the relationship. We made ordination of our field research data using multivariate analysis, followed by development of a simulation program for river diatom assemblage composition as well as a water quality estimation program using a mesh model. The developed programs were integrated to a learning material named "SimRiver". Users of this material set some environmental conditions for the modeled river. Diatoms are drawn on computer displays based on the species composition estimated under the environmental conditions. Users identify and count the diatoms, based on which they virtually experience water pollution evaluation using diatoms. As it is expected that identification of diatoms is not easy to most users, pictorial guide of diatom identification that is coupled with the material is prepared to help users. The next problem will be to find proper ways to use such material and to develop appropriate curriculums using such material.

In the textbook for the teaching of technology studies at junior high schools, studying the role of information processing methods, raised at the beginning of the course, aims to provide an introduction to "B information and computers" and stimulate a desire to study. Some examples of information processing are given, however students mainly learn from textbooks, with no practical experience. Using only a textbook, students are unable to completely understand the content and lose interest in the subject. So, by incorporating practical experience with a POS system into the course with the aims of ensuring student's understanding of course content and raising their level of interest, a new study plan was developed. Upon investigation, this course was found to be effective in accomplishing these goals.

Images of rivers recorded from multiple perspectives are combined to reproduce flow rate changes caused by flood-ing in an exhibition space, in order to communicate infor-mation about river phenomena that are difficult to observe in the field for jueniles. It has been shown that itis possible to communicate phenomena to Juveniles more comprehen-sibly than through field observations by combining and synchronizing images of an actual river flood recorded from a high vantage point, at the water's surface, and un-derwater to reproduce these flow rate changes in an exhibi-tion space.

In this study, we developed the multimedia teaching materials by which the students could independently conduct the experiments of food analysis, made the chart for management of the practical states and estimated these effects by analysis of questionnaire to the students. The study was carried out by using the Note PCs in the laboratory connected with wireless LAN of the university. The results obtained were as follows. (1) The students could easily understand the procedures of experiments by using the multimedia teaching materials. (2) The students who frequently used the multimedia teaching. (3) The progress chart worked well for the students who independently conducted the experiments. (4) In comparison of the learning and the lowly one, the former increased in the ability of understanding more than the later after the experiments were over.

This article reports the analysis of evaluation in the courses under automatic video recording system by the method of a questionnaire and interview. According to our analysis, the following things become clear. Being shot by the cameras reduces lectures' and students' concentration at the beginning, but it has nothing to do with the concentration gradually because they are used to attend such lectures. Students give emphasis to voice information and material when they watch the recorded lectures. It is important that the lecturer points at the screen showing the material appropriately for students to understand well under this multimedia archive system. The recorded lecture which this system made is highly evaluated for the image and sound quality, and it is useful for Faculty Development.
