Toward the Cross-Institutional Data Integration From Shibboleth Federated LMS

Through this study, we aim to examine a method for data integration in shared Learning Management System (LMS) in authentication federation. We proposed a method of transmitting ePTID and learning data with user’s consent as a method for data integration across institutions. The method is compared with the other existing methods to realize the shared LMS. We discuss the suitable method for next version of GakuNinMoodle and conclude that our requirements are not fully satisfied by a single method

Development of Information Ethics Online Course for Diverse Learners

研究成果の概要 (和文) : 本研究は，多様な学習者がモチベーションを維持しつつ，様々な端末で学習できる情報倫理オンライン教育の提供を目指した取り組みである：(1)多様な学習者へ対応するための取り組みを行った．(2)学習者のモチベーションの維持に資するコンテンツデザインについて検討を進めた．(3)Universal Accessを実現した．これらを踏まえ学習プラットフォームを刷新し，2020年4月から「学認LMS https://lms.nii.ac.jp/」に移行するための準備を行った．加えて，インストラクショナルデザインの考え方を取り入れた新しいコンテンツ「倫倫姫の情報セキュリティ教室」を製作し公開した。研究成果の概要 (英文) : In this study, we aimed to provide online information ethics education that allows diverse learners to learn on various devices while maintaining their motivation: (1) Efforts were made to respond to diverse learners. (2) A study on content design that contributes to maintaining learners\u27 motivation was carried out. (3) Universal Access is realized.Based on the above, we renewed the learning platform and made preparations for the transition to the "GakuNin LMS https://lms.nii.ac.jp/" from April 2020. In addition, a new content, "Princess Rinrin\u27 s information security column," which incorporates the idea of instructional design, has been produced and published

Creation of e-learning about ABO Grouping for transfusion scientists

Introduction: Review of the SHOT data indicated that there is a deficiency in knowledge with the ABO blood grouping system which is in part associated with mistakes and errors. These errors have the potential to be life threatening and have been attributed to the laboratory staff. It is thought one of the reasons this has occurred is there is no available resource for staff to learn and develop the knowledge required to prevent knowledge-based errors occurring. This resulted in the creation of an easily accessible e-learning package which included interactive learning. This aimed to determine if this satisfies the users and results in both knowledge improvement and confidence of the scientist in the ABO blood grouping system. Project Aims: The project aimed to design an educational package which was able to run on the internet in real-time using a learning management system (LMS) platform to enable scientists to improve both their knowledge and confidence in a single topic of transfusion science (ABO Blood grouping). Methods: A user engagement survey was performed to ascertain the requirements from users in the Southwest of England which alongside the heamovigilance data supported the focus topic of ABO. The content of the learning was created by the author and designed into a e-learning package by a package designer. The material was trialled by student volunteers (50 participants were invited, 19 commenced the e-learning and eight completed the project) within transfusion laboratories with knowledge assessments at predefined time points to determine the success of the final product. Results: An e-learning package was developed on Articulate Storyline® which allowed for interactive case studies allowing users to apply knowledge learnt through the package which students found enjoyable. As a result of the package, it was noted there was a 1.3-point increase in actual knowledge and a 1.8-point increase in perceived knowledge. A power analysis demonstrated that the actual knowledge gave a power result of 0.65 using a one-tail calculation which would demonstrate the results seen may not be replicable; however, the power calculation using a two-tail of the perceived knowledge was 0.82 which shows significant power. Conclusion: The project allowed for the development of an interactive e-learning project which has been shown by this feasibility study to have a benefit to knowledge and confidence in participants. The resource of the package can be used for future studies and learning opportunities both within NHSBT and externally. There were limitations with the package development and participation numbers however these can be overcome in future developments of the packag
