摘要:The objective of this study is to introduce GIS education system via distance learning system in Rissho University. The campuses of Rissho University are located in two places, and it takes 1.5hr by train between two campuses. Some of students take courses at both campuses. In order to get over such handicap, Rissho University has examined distance learning system. This system was complete in 2005 and will be used practically in 2006. This system can transmit/receive computer screen images, videos, images and sounds of classroom with low delay and high quality. In addition, it can record lectures, and students can review lectures. Faculty of Geo- Environmental Science in Kumagaya campus has a plan to teach GIS and remote sensing for students and for other faculties are interested in GIS. However, it is difficult to support the students in distant campus frequently. For this reason, we are enabled to use GIS via distance learning system. In computer rooms, one of three monitors on each table for students is used to display the images of teacher computer. If students cannot understand operations just referring middle monitor, teacher operates student computer from teacher computer. Thus, this system can teach how to operate GIS software for students in distant campus as they are the same class. We will use this system for teaching GIS classes in cooperation with other faculties, opening GIS classes of Faculty of Geo- Environmental Science to other faculties and making content of GIS lectures using recording function and so on
