Introduction: NIME and OUJ-CODEIntroduction: NIME and OUJ-CODE
2004NIME was reorganized as an “Independent Administrative Institution” to promote government policies as the National Core Institution for the educational use of ICT in HE.
1978NIME was founded to support the establishment of Univ. of the Air (currently, OUJ) as a governmental institute.
April 2009(By the decision by the Cabinet meeting), NIME was closed and the main support functions were moved to new OUJ –CODE.

CODE’s MissionsCODE’s Missions
As continued operations from NIME, Facilitation of ICT-enhanced education in Japanese HE Facilitation of Internationalization and International Collaboration in Japanese HE OER movements
As an institute of OUJ (as a NC for LLL), Faculty member Research institute for ICT and distance education ICT-related support center

Openness and OUsOpenness and OUs
Open Education in LLL
Open Educational Resources Movements
(OERs)
Accumulation and utilization of quality learning resources is a key factor for high-quality LLL.
To realize the “open access” to the quality resources, agreements and infrastructure are necessary in/outside of OUJ.

How can we find the most appropriate content from deep web?
Course providers: in developing courseware Teachers: in preparing classroom materials Learners: in searching suitable content

Our view: The presentOur view: The present Although the quality issue is still remained,
the huge number of learning content is accumulated in the repositories all over the world.
e.g. OER movements
In addition to open content, the delivery of proprietary learning objects are now focused and more complicated access control is required.

Use Cases : TomorrowUse Cases : Tomorrow Lifelong Learner A learner need not consider the optimality of the
learning content. By referring to learner’s profile (including, e-portfolio) and contexts, the computer finds the most appropriate modules from the content repositories from the world.
Teacher A teacher can find the most appropriate materials
which he/she uses at the classroom by consulting with the knowledge-base on the pedagogy, quality, right and other information.

They can concentrate in learning and teaching in various contexts (incl. Social)

Next-generation int’l standards of metadata and infrastructure for the discovery and delivery of content/metadata are indispensablee.g. IMS/GLC LODE, SCORM….

Lifelong Learners Independent, Autonomous, Self-directed Broad spectra of personal characteristics Plus Internationalization and Globalization
languages, social customs, school systems, curricula and standards, pedagogies, ICT environments, learner characteristics and so on
New value-added Services Localization for cultural diversity Personalization and optimization
Recommendation, (Right, Quality, Pedagogical and so on) Collaborations to sustain quality content and learning
communities Sharing courseware materials for co-development Sharing information for learners
Global search system will be effective also in both OE and LLL frameworks.
