With the paradigm shift in university education from an instruction-centered approach to a learning centered one, emphasis came to be placed on the introduction of active learning and university students’ subjective learning. In 2010, the development of an e-portfolio system focused on performance began, and for approximately nine years, system improvements and educational practice have been carried out by using this system. However, today, there is a demand for further improvement of the quality of subjective learning in university education. To this end, on the basis of pedagogical findings regarding students’ subjective learning, this study outlines what has been learned from educational practice that uses the e-portfolio system. The study proposes a learning model utilizing this system, providing support for students’ introspective activities and for active learning that transcends the boundaries of courses and academic years, expanding beyond the scope of university education.

In this study, we examined the possibility of Expansive Learning through PBL (Project Based Learning) program as a new learning form complementing traditional learning style in management education for the undergraduate student. As a result of investigating the regional revitalization project in Kaiyo town, Tokushima, we could find that learners interact with various actors through their activities and discover new tasks beyond the tasks initially given and solve it.

The prevailing view regarding working practices mediated by Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is that companies introduce a new activity when its merits outweigh the disadvantages. However, such a functionalistic view ignores most aspects of organizational life. The aim of the present study is to analyze the generating mechanism of ICT-mediated working practices in a spatially distributed organization. Improving the imbrication model of Leonardi (2011) based on critical realists’ analytical dualism, we focus on the contribution of the interplay between human agency and technical objects to the mechanism. The case study of a satellite office illustrates that an agency’s relation to the two types of material properties, intransitive materiality and transitive materiality, generates ICT-mediated working practices in the satellite office.

In the current computerised society, where state-of-the-art information and communication technologies (ICT) such as artificial intelligence pervade every corner of economy and society, ICT engineers’ responsibility, in particular accountability, for computing has been becoming ambiguous more and more. This would cause a serious situation in which no one takes any responsibility for the development and operation of ICT-based information systems, even though the systems can provide harmful impacts for individuals and society. To cope with this situation, ICT professionalism suitable for the contemporary ICT environment should be established, and a wide variety of stakeholders involved in ICT development and usage have to build their professional attitudes towards computing.

The purpose of this paper is to discuss about the mechanism. i.e. The chicken egg problem caused by the restrained motivation of developers due to the outbreak (increase) of derivative PF products suppresses the creation of OS and applications etc. as complementary products running on PF products in the software industry. Specifically, the paper raises a hypothesis that the outbreak of derivative products of PF products impedes the same-side and cross-side network effects in the two-sided PF and reduces the competitiveness of PF products. Then, the paper exemplifies three cases and derives PF strategic implications for PF product providers.
