January Progress Report
- 👨💻 Shintaro Aoyama
- 🏫 Gunma International Academy High School, 11th grade (Sophomore)
- 📕 “Video-based Note Taking with Time Manipulation”
Implementation Progress
- Implementation of text-based communication
- Porting to Mac
Tests at School
- Contacted about 10 teachers at school
- Positive responses, but some questions and concerns
- Q. What types of lesson content work well with the system?
- Lessons with open-endedness are suitable
- Classes that aim for maximum efficiency in information transmission may create noise
- Q. Why do we seek synchronization rather than just pseudo-synchronization?
- It allows for interactions with more participants
- Particularly important for the leading group
- Enables looping interactions
- A->B->A
- It allows for interactions with more participants
Presentation
-
Key points:
- Communication overlapping with video lectures
- Elastic synchronization among students
- Communication experience with a sense of “synchronization”
-
Is it easier to understand “sharing a whiteboard” rather than “sharing a lecture video”?
- Students: It is easier to understand the sensation of writing on the same layer rather than on a layer above.
- Teachers: It is easier to understand the sensation of completing a blackboard with students’ writings.
- An extension of Jamboard rather than Zoom
-
“Space”
- Eliminating the barrier of distance and enabling dialogue without sharing physical space: telephone -> Zoom
- Intentionally creating spatial constraints and generating a sense of shared space: spatial.chat
- Enabling hybrid of face-to-face and remote interactions: AR
-
“Time”
- Eliminating the barrier of time and enabling dialogue without sharing the same timeframe: letters/Line
- Intentionally creating temporal constraints and generating a sense of shared time: NicoNico -> Kineto
- Enabling hybrid of synchronous and asynchronous interactions: Kineto’s elastic synchronization
- Can elastic synchronization be considered as the AR of time? (Might be an exaggeration)
Tasks to be completed before the final presentation
- Prioritize testing in actual educational settings
- Progress on whiteboardization
