Learner autonomy:
“the ability to take charge of one's own learning”
----- (Holec, Henri 1981)
2.1 Learner Autonomy
Only by letting their students keep their
learning reports and submit them to their
teacher, it helped them get more committed to
outside-class learning. ----- Shirono

“The situations where students can learn
whenever they want to in a variety of
scenarios and that they can switch from one
scenario to another easily and quickly using
one device or more per student (“one-to-one”)
as a mediator. “
----- Chan et
al.(2006)
2.2 Seamless Learning
More simply,
Seamless Learning literally means learning
without seam.
The situation where we can learn
seamlessly wherever we are, whenever we
are.

4.4 Discussion
4. Evaluation
(3) the open-ended comments of the participants whose outside-class
learning time was short
1) I prefer paper books to e-book, because it is not easy for me to.
2) I had to prepare some tests for other classes and did not have enough time to read.
3) Before I noticed, it was running out of battery and I could not read when I wanted to.
4) I was busy with my club.
5) It was difficult to handle Galaxy Tab.
6) I do not like e-book because I cannot put annotations.
7) It was hard to find time to read.
8) E-book was not easy to handle, which made me hesitant in reading.
9) It was bothering to charge the device.
10) The story was difficult to read.
11) I do not like to read in the first place.
12) Even though I set it manner mode, it produced some beep sound and I got.

(4) open-ended comments from the participants who got involved in more
outside-class learning
1) It was easy to consult the dictionary, so it was easy to go on reading.
2) When I touched an English word, then its Japanese translation
appeared and I liked it very much.
3) I prefer tablets for reading.
4) I liked the illustrations.
5) The story was very interesting, so I could get absorbed in reading.

4. Evaluation
(5) open-ended comments in favour of SCROLL
1) It was good because I could learn words from other classmate uploaded words.
2) The words which I uploaded appear as a quiz, and I think it is a good way
to memorize words (plurality opinion).
3) I thought it was convenient.
4) It was easy to remember by answering quizzes.
5) It was fun to answer quizzes (plurality opinion).
6) Answering quizzes reminds me of the words forgotten.
7) I did not like to make a vocabulary book on spreadsheets.
8) “Relog” function was very convenient.
9) I forget new vocabulary very easily, but it was a good way to review by answering
quizzes.
10) It was easy to handle.
4.4 Discussion
4. Evaluation
(6) unfavorable comments on SCROLL
1) There came out a quiz of a word which I did not upload and I did not
like it.
2) Sometimes, some weird translation came out. So, a dictionary
function as a translator of an uploaded English word was not good
enough.
3) Some distractors in quizzes are so simple that it was very easy to
choose right answers.
4) It was troublesome to log into the system and input new vocabulary

5.1 Conclusion
Our hypothetical question:
Does SCROLL contribute to the solution of lack of
learning time?
5. Conclusion and Future Works
Evaluation II
Outside-class learning time increased only when they read an e-
book together with the System even though no statistically
significant difference was detected.
Evaluation I
They hardly had outside-class learning
e-book application introduced
5.1 Future Work
5. Conclusion and Future Works
Customized learning recommendation system
