Course description and aims

As multimedia, we will use exhibition contents of the National Museum of Nature and Science, Internet resources, etc., and design leaning activities to utilize them as a learning environment. The learning objectives, results of activities, and reflection are presented in a poster presentation format. Activities in the classroom are a project-based learning which is based on group activities. Students will learn teaching techniques of group activities through their own experience.

In this situation, the media as a learning environment is given. Students will have to design a so-called informal learning, where students are required to view education from a different point of view. They will learn active learning techniques through the practice of them.

1) design an effective learning and teaching environment using multimedia.
2) design and implement learning activities of informal learning utilizing the exhibition and digital media of the museum.
3) master a method of project-based learning by the practice of group activities.
