Remote lecture based on Instruction with Blackboard using high-quality media systems

Abstract

Various kinds of high-quality media systems have been developed. It is expected that these systems can be used for remote lectures. We are adopting these systems including a high-speed network to construct a remote lecture based on "Instruction with Blackboard", which provides an old-fashioned but very common style of lecture. This instruction style has been often avoided in remote lectures so far because it requires high-quality data transmission. However it is no doubt that this style of instruction is still a very popular teaching method. Therefore, it is educationally meaningful that this teaching method is realized on remote lectures. This paper describes a construction method of the remote lecture based on Instruction with Blackboard and the experiment on the remote lecture using high-quality media systems.
