EDUCATIONAL ENGINEERING

I participated in exciting projects. I have outstanding colleagues in many places.

I started as a language teacher, and became an educational engineer.

• Glexa® is an LMS (learner management system).
• The name Glexa was coined from the phrase "Learning EXperience designed by Goh Kawai and implemented by Akio Ohnishi".
• Akio and I designed, developed, and distributed Glexa for 15 years.
• Glexa is now sold by Chieru through its subsidiary Chieru Communication Bridge (formerly Version2), a software corporation founded by Akio.

• My former graduate student Takafumi Utashiro and I own the registered trademark Discourseware®.
• Discourseware is our courseware for training discourse, particulary verbal, non-verbal, and back-channeling skills (that is, respectively, speaking, body language, and signaling from the listener to the talker).

Publications are listed in reverse chronological order. All publications are peer-reviewed unless otherwise stated.
