项目摘要

The study analyzes the results of distance education using the PictureTel system, a compressed-graphics system via telephone lines, in comparison with traditional in-class education. The instructor in Osaka gave a lecture to the students in Tokyo. To compare distance instruction with in-class instruction, the same instructor lectured in Tokyo. Although instruction sent from a distant place makes the evaluation of instruction somewhat lower than what it would have been if the same had been given in a conventional manner, the negative impact can be minimized by paying special attention to the way of giving a lecture. The cost of the distance instruction was less than half of that of instruction in a conventional style. tance education for a small group sent via telephone lines is feasibe.For evaluating long term effects, the monetary effects on UAJ graduates were calculated on the basis of their annual earnings collected through a questionnaire survey. They were compared with direct and indirect costs by using rates of return. The result shows that UAJ education yields high rate of return to the graduates, excepting the person who had bachelor degree before entering UAJ.If the student number increases by UAJ's nationwide expansion, the cost effectiveness will be better and the ratio of government burden will decrease because of economies of scale in distance education.The study also aims at identifying the factors that have strong influence on the effects of UAJ.It has been found that the factor which has the most influence on the primary effects is education of high quality. On the other hand, the factors influential to the continuative effects are "motivations" in terms of vocational merits and "motivations" and "the acquisition of knowledge" in terms of the enhancement of one's cultural level. It follows that attacting motivated applicants and motivating them at the time they start studying at the UAJ are crucial in achieving the objectives of the university.

该研究分析了使用 PictureTel 系统（一种通过电话线压缩图形系统）进行远程教育的结果，并与传统课堂教育进行比较。大阪的讲师给东京的学生进行讲座。为了比较远程教学和课堂教学，同一位教师在东京授课。虽然远方授课的评价比传统授课方式稍低，但通过特别注意授课方式，可以将负面影响降到最低。远程教学的成本不到传统教学方式的一半。通过电话线对一小群人进行远程教育是可行的。为了评估长期影响，对UAJ毕业生的货币影响是根据通过问卷调查收集的年收入来计算的。通过使用回报率将它们与直接和间接成本进行比较。结果表明，除进入UAJ之前已获得学士学位的人外，UAJ教育对毕业生的回报率很高。如果UAJ在全国范围内扩展，学生人数增加，成本效益会更好，政府负担比例也会降低由于远程教育的规模经济，本研究还旨在找出对UAJ效果影响较大的因素。研究发现，对主要效果影响最大的因素是高质量的教育。另一方面，影响持续效果的因素是职业优点方面的“动机”和文化水平提高方面的“动机”和“知识获取”。因此，吸引积极主动的申请者并在他们开始在 UAJ 学习时激励他们对于实现大学目标至关重要。
