高等学校において平成15年より施行された新課程では、高校のカリキュラムの中に「情報」科目が設けられた。これを経てきた学生に対する大学の情報リテラシー教育には、その位置づけや内容を再検討する必要が生じるかもしれない。そこで、高校新課程を経て大学に入学してきた学部1年生の学生を対象に、高校の情報教育で学んだ項目を調べることを目的としてアンケート調査を行った。大学の情報リテラシー科目において講義している項目を箇条書きにした用紙を配布して、高校の情報科目で学んだ項目に印をつけてもらい、その結果を集計した。本発表では、二つの大学で行ったアンケート調査の結果について述べ、これに基づいて考察した大学の情報リテラシー教育の対応について述べる。Due to the introduction of an information course to the curriculum of high school by the new Education Ministry guidelines, modifications might be required to information literacy education in universities. The terms learned in the information course of high school is investigated by questionnaires to the incoming freshmen of our universities. The present paper describes the result of an aggregate analysis of the questionnaires. The influences on the education of information literacy in universities caused by the introduction of the information course to high school are also discussed

中学や高校で情報教育が行われるようになったことから、大学に入学してくる学生も既に情報教育やコンピューター利用経験を経てきている。大学の情報リテラシー教育もこれに対応する必要があると考え、新入学生に対して入学までに学んできた情報リテラシーを問うアンケート調査を、2006 年度より継続的に行っている。また、ワードプロセッシングについて、実技形式のアンケートも行っている。本稿では、二つの大学で行っているアンケート調査の結果について述べ、これに基づいて考察した大学の情報リテラシー教育について述べる。Due to the introduction of an information course to the curriculum of high school by the new Education Ministry guidelines,modifications may be required to information literacy education in universities. We have been investigated the terms learned in theinformation course of high school on the basis of a questionnaire to the incoming freshmen of our universities since 2006 scoolyear. Another questionnaire to test the skill of word presocessing is also examined. The present paper describes the results the twoquestionnaires, and discusses an appropriate curriculum of the infomation literacy education for university students

Development and reliability of a standard rating system for outcome measurement of foot and ankle disorders I: development of standard rating system

AbstractBackgroundThe aim of this study was to report the five scales comprising the rating system that the Japanese Society for Surgery of the Foot (JSSF) devised (JSSF standard rating system) and the newly offered interpretations and criteria for determinations of each assessment item.MethodsWe produced the new scales for the JSSF standard system by modifying the clinical rating systems established by the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS scales) and the Japanese Orthopaedic Association’s foot rating scale (JOA scale). We also provided interpretations of each assessment item and the criteria of determinations in the new standard system.ResultsWe improved the ambiguous expressions and content in the conventional standard rating systems so they would be easily understood by Japanese people. The result was five scales in total. Four were designed for use specifically for ankle-hindfoot, midfoot, hallux metatarsophalangeal- interphalangeal, and lesser metatarsophalangeal- ineterphalangeal sites; and the fifth was for the foot and ankle with rheumatoid arthritis. Furthermore, we described interpretations and criteria for determinations with regard to evaluation items in each scale.ConclusionsConventionally, the AOFAS scales or the JOA scale have been separately applied depending on the sites or disorders concerned, but it was often difficult to decide on scores during practical evaluations because of differing expressions in different languages and also because of ambiguity in the interpretation of each evaluation item and in scoring standards as well. JSSF improved these scales and added definite interpretations of evaluation items as well as criteria for the rating (to be reported here in part I). Because these steps were expected to improve the reliability of outcomes assessed by each scale, we examined the reliability in scores of the newly developed scales, which are reported in part II (in this issue)

Development and reliability of a standard rating system for outcome measurement of foot and ankle disorders II: interclinician and intraclinician reliability and validity of the newly established standard rating scales and Japanese Orthopaedic Association rating scale

AbstractBackgroundThis study evaluated the validity and inter- and intraclinician reliability of (1) the Japanese Society of Surgery of the Foot (JSSF) standard rating system for four sites [ankle- hindfoot (AH), midfoot (MF), hallux (HL), and lesser toe (LT)] and the rheumatoid arthritis (RA) foot and ankle scale and (2) the Japanese Orthopaedic Association’s foot rating scale (JOA scale).MethodsClinicians from the same institute independently evaluated participating patients from their institute by two evaluations at a 1- to 4-week interval. Statistical evaluation was as follows. (1) The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was calculated from data collected from at least two examinations of each patient by at least two evaluating clinicians (Data A). (2) Total scores for the two evaluations were determined from the distribution of differences in data between the two evaluations (Data B); each item was evaluated by determining Cohen’s coefficient of agreement. (3) The relation between patient satisfaction and total score was investigated only for patients who underwent surgery (Data C). Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient was obtained.ResultsParticipants were 65 clinicians and 610 patients, including those with disorders of the AH (313), MF (47), HL (153), and LT (50) and those with RA (47). From Data A, the ICC was high for AH and HL by JSSF scales and for AH, MF, and LT by the JOA scale. From Data B, the coefficient showed high validity for both scales for AH, with almost no difference between the two scales; the validity for HL was higher with the JOA scale than with the JSSF scale. From Data C, correlations were significant between patient satisfaction and outcome for AH and HL by the JSSF scales and for AH, HL, and LT by the JOA scale.ConclusionsThe validity of both scales was high. Clinical evaluation of the therapeutic results using these scales would be highly reliable
