Abstract

We have developed a distance learning support system, named SEGODON. This system consists of 40 student computers. We aim at consistent support of a class during a half year using a distance learning support system. In order to enable distance learning during a half year, we developed easy operation of the whole system by a teacher, temporarily shared drawing, and a lecture data creation support system. We applied this system in classes of high frequency engineering. SEGODON had a good reputation in operation. The teacher was able to operate the system alone in real time. The temporarily shared drawing was highly evaluated by students and a teacher. The results of the term-end examination using SEGODON seemed to be the same as a class in which a distance learning support system was not used
