Abstract

The School of Human Sciences at Waseda University implemented e-school education by using the Internet in April, 2003. This state-of-the-art educational system, now in its 4th year, has been conducted smoothly, overcoming unforeseen challenges almost on a day-to-day basis. In the process of teaching courses, the present writers have faced several unexpected problems and tasks requiring detailed care and attention. Quite interestingly, one noticeable consequence of e-school teaching has been the need to re-train the present writers as e-school novice teachers. This report intends to introduce several notable experiences involving learning, with examples of efforts made and improvements realized Specifically, courseware development, meaningful refocusing of phone use, and BBS communication are analyzed and discussed from the perspective of novice e-school teachers. It is of interest, at the same time, that the process of encountering the challenges associated with e-learning has also given us more than several research questions to be reconsidered in their application to teaching, and distance education.
