In this thesis, we present a remote education system that supports a real-time bidirectional learning through the computer networks.
The proposed system which is a virtual classroom based on a model of real classroom, consists of the multimedia authoring tool, the BBS system and the remote lecture system.
A instructor can build conveniently educational materials such as examination papers by using the authoring tool. Through the BBS, learners can communicate the questions and answers with their instructor. The remote lecture system provides an environment in which the instructor and learners can navigate the courseware prepared for the lecture. This ability can be carried out through the real-time video conferencing, the shared workspace and the monitoring tools.
In this thesis, we first analyze the functional requirements, and then describe the design specification and the implementation details of the system.
