Fabrication of IoT devices with Sigfox, and It’s application to education, research, and society using ThingSpeak, Matlab / Simulink, and Twitter
application/pdfWe installed the Sigfox antenna in Hiroshima Institute of Technology and acquired the data of
the water meter with IoT equipment via the Internet using the Sigfox network. In addition, Create
an IoT device using Sigfox, receive the data transmitted from the device with ThinSpeak, calculate
with Matlab / Simulink, and display the result on the smartphone via ThingSpeak. In the future, I
would like to aim to build an educational system that can be used for actual lectures and practical
training using materials for constructing educational systems.departmental bulletin pape
Comparison of Evaluation Results Between Multiple-Choice Testing and Description Type Testing:Linear Algebra Case
application/pdfUsing the LCT (learning check testing) results in the follow-up program system, we have shown
that we can predict the students’ future results of success/failure to the final examination with
a probability to some extent. However, we also anticipate that we may not be able to enhance a
certain level of prediction accuracy for evaluation because the description type questions and
their evaluations to the final examinations depend on two or more teachers resulting unfair scores
although the LCT provides the multiple-choice questions and the evaluations are performed
automatically using computers. We had a chance to perform such a CBT using the multiplechoice
questions and the automatic evaluations. Thus, in this paper, we investigate whether such
a prediction is correct or not. Amazingly, there may be no differences of the results between the
description type examination and multiple-choice testing in terms of the correlation coefficients. The
subject is Linear Algebra for first semester undergraduate students.departmental bulletin pape
Success/Failure Prediction for Final Examination Using the LCT Results and FPT Results
application/pdfThe author proposed a prediction method to find students at drop-out risks as early as possible by
using the learning check testing (LCT) results, where the nearest-neighbor method was used to find
the similarity of the cumulative LCT ability trends in the previous paper. Even if we use almost
the first half of the LCT results, we can predict the failed students in final examinations. However,
the predicted failed students covered the half of the actual failed students. In this paper, to raise
the prediction accuracy for finding the students at risk, we added another information, the follow-up
program testing (FPT) results via the FPT points defined here. Using this FPT point information
and the LCT ability trends together, we can predict the students at risk with higher prediction
accuracy than that when we only use the LCT ability trends.departmental bulletin pape
On Fluctuation of Score of Examination
application/pdfComparing the results of placement tests and final exams performed in a class, it has been
common to see the whole aspect and investigate the correlation between them. It seems that little
has been studied whether useful information can be obtained. In other words, the scores xi and yi
of the student i in the class are only the simultaneous samples of the random variables X and Y,
and the relationship between xi and yi was not deeply investigated. However, a score of student A is
governed by A’s ability and proficiency level, and it is normal to think that there will be bounded
fluctuations. In other words, the range of variation of xi is not defined in the domain of X, but is
more limited. In this paper we pursue such a matter.
By doing this, it is possible to observe fluctuations in test scores under various conditions, which
cannot be eliminated due to the form of the test (descriptive or multiple choice) among teachers. It
is also possible to extract variations due to teaching manners of teachers. Here, the basic idea to
deal with such things is described.departmental bulletin pape
A study on the large learning unit “human body and health” of lower secondary school science “Life and Earth Sciences”(SVT) in France
application/pdf理科2 分野に相当するフランスの中学校教科「生命と地球の科学」の生命科学の分野の大単元「人体と健康」

Learning Analytics: Relationships Among LCT Point, LCT Ability, HIT Point, and Term-end Examination Score
application/pdfLCT (learning check testing) was first aimed at identifying students who may fail in the termend
examination. However, LCT was applied to all freshman students, which means that students
who got higher scores could be identified at early stages in testing. Thus, we use this proactively
in turn. To find such smart students, we have constructed an acceleration tool, called LCT point.
Students get a one point when all the answers are correct in a test; in addition, consecutive perfect
results bear bonus point increasing exponentially. In this paper, using accumulated LCT results, we
have investigated LCT points. Moreover, the relationships among other information, such as LCT
abilities, HIT points, and end-term, examination scores are also investigated.departmental bulletin pape
Success/Failure Prediction for CBT Based End-term Examination using LCT Evaluation
application/pdfUsing the LCT (learning check testing) results in the follow-up (FP) program system, we
have shown that we can predict the students’ future results of success/failure to the end-term
examination with a probability to some extent. However, we also anticipate that we may not be
able to enhance a certain level of prediction accuracy for evaluation because the description type
questions and their evaluations to the final examinations depend on two or more teachers, resulting
unfair scores although the LCT provides the multiple-choice questions and the evaluations are
performed automatically using computers. However, we have had a chance to perform such a CBT
using the multiple-choice questions and the automatic evaluations using item response theory. Here,
in this paper, we have investigated whether the accuracy for success/failure prediction to the endterm
examination using CBT can be improved than that using the description-type testing. We have
found that the CBT based on the end-term examination using the LCT improves the prediction
accuracy for success/failure than that based on the description-type testing using the LCT.departmental bulletin pape
A study on the underground facilities in the former Kure Naval Base
application/pdfThe former Kure Naval Base has located at present site of Headquarters of Kure District, Japan
Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF). Recently, two underground facilities constructed by the
Imperial Japanese Navy are discovered at the site and investigation of the facilities’ inside started in
2017. Several historical documents and drawings were found, and it is considered that these facilities
seem to be used as a telephone exchange facility and an air defense center. In this paper, several
drawings and photos of these facilities are shown, and it is clarified that structures and history of
these bunkers. Because of the British Commonwealth Occupation Force (BCOF) have occupied Kure
area from 1946 to 1952 and the Australian Army was the main force of BCOF, a lot of historical
photos of Kure city are archived at the Australian War Memorial (AWM). Several photos of the
facilities are discovered in the AWM’s collection and also shown in this paper.departmental bulletin pape
Construction of a preliminary educational system for fuel cells using hydrogen
application/pdfGlobal warming problems, local energy problems, etc. are expected to become serious problems as
the aging society in Japan progresses. In addition, the introduction of renewable energy is important
not only for measures against global warming, but also from the viewpoints of securing energy
security, building independent and distributed energy systems, creating new industries and jobs.
In this research, we constructed a preliminary educational system that can confirm the operation
of hydrogen sensor, water electrolysis, LED lighting using fuel cell and so on. In addition, examples
of fuel cells, microgrids, and Rankine cycles provided by Mathworks were introduced, and future
hydrogen-related facilities were introduced.departmental bulletin pape
