A New e-Learning System Based on Cooperative Methods - Next-generation Extra University-education System

A new e-learning system is proposed in this paper. It is called NEXUS (next-generation extra university-education system). NEXUS is an on-line learning system that is focus on undergraduate course. This system includes virtual lectures, question confirm pages, application sharing, keywords and reference data sharing and cooperative discussion tool. The feature of NEXUS is based on cooperative discussion tool. Wherever students are studying, they can discuss together, have a net meeting at the same time via NEXUS. The procedure is not difficult that even students who are not familiar with computer knowledge can use this system simply. In addition, another function that video-streaming data is converted to text data by the technology of speech recognition is developing. That means students will be able to pick up any scene of video they want to review from researching by text data
