Current report of cases documented thus far. From May 1997 to March 1998, computer-science related classes were provided for students enrolled in junior high school students who were unable to attend regular classes at their home schools. The classes were provided through a distance education system using PC conferencing connected via ISDN circuits between Meisel University at Hino-city, Tokyo and the students' alternative school provided by the city. In this case, Meisei University has been working with the city of Ichikawa, Chiba Prefecture. These students were able to receive education from Meisei University teachers and their own instructors at their alternative school. At the year-end conclusion, we found that by using a distance education system, those students who refused to go to their regular school could develop a growing interest in computers.
