Abstract

    The authors have been trying to improve the college students’ working knowledge of English as well as English communication ability using e-Learning system since late 1990’s when e-Learning system of universities and companies of the United States was dominant and influential over the instructional world of information technology. Influenced by their elaborate theory and practice, we developed computer software for learning English vocabulary which supported easy handling for beginning students in the first stage. Secondly, in order to strengthen their English proficiency, we composed computer software on the web to support English grammar skill. Thirdly, we made an electronic message board system called “Cross Culture Forum” on the web, which enabled our students to communicate with foreign students (Thomas More College in U.S.A. and Kings High School in New Zealand) through the Internet. In the fourth stage, in the process of creating digital contents, we built digital database for haiga-picture (seasonal poem-picture of Japan) and searching system on the website. In this paper, we trace the theory and practice for small-scale e-Learning system of our making and discuss instructional effect and efficiency as well.
