English language learning is compulsory in Japan, even in the post secondary system, much to the chagrin of many students who do not appreciate the value that such education brings to them. As a professor and head of English education, I wish to change current attitudes towards this in Japan and therefore have created a new system to bolster language retention skills in students that may fell embarrassed by their lack of basic skills and have onstructed the following ungraded, voluntary course for students whom may wish to enhance their current English language skill levels in the classroom, or in the rivacy of their own homes, at times which are convenient for them. Recently, an LMS, (Learning Management System), has been utilized in Japanese university school systems. In particular, "Moodle", among various kinds of LMSs has been very popular with a great number of language teachers at universities and colleges who make use of LMS network systems in their classes. I therefore plan to utilize this magnifi cent system for a basic, English skills support class to facilitate the means to encourage and nspire as many students as possible at my university where my research chiefl y takes place, to study English. My methodology is as follows: I video record each classroom lesson. Then, I condense the video data and merge the written text with PowerPoint for a combined lesson format. Finally, students upload the wed fi les through our streamingserver on the internet for review or extra practice. In order to support my system, I input the URLs of the support site to my own Moodle site. I cross reference the available nformation, with the URLs I provide to the universities main bulleting board found in one of our commons lounges, as well as on line, in order to best make students aware of the system and remind them of this service during the busy academic term. Student access and usage of this service will be tabulated from the beginning of the academic semester using the, "AWStats", statistical system to graph student usage and peak viewing periods of streaming media, cross referenced with peak periods of student oriented events during the semester. My moode access may be viewed anytime and anywhere and is not limited to internal, on campus servers, in order to maximize study without complication on the part of the institution, or yours truly. The system is aimed at encouraging students who may feel embarrassed at underachievement and encourage those with desire and minimal rudimentary skills. Thesuccess of the program will be measured during the final grading period, yet I believe results will clearly be recognized during the semester by the classroom roduction of students utilizing this system.
