LICAP-LD Model
Okamoto proposed LICAP model for decision
making in designing and evaluating CAI
courseware in 1978 (Okamoto & Sato), and we
redesigned it for constructing and evaluating elearning
contents as LICAP-LD model, which is
a framework of PLAN, DO, ANALIZE and RE-
CONSTRUCT used for constructing e-Learning
contents. As shown in Fig.8, LICAP-LD model
expresses learning design of e-Learning with four
modules such as Learner characteristics module
(L), Consequent Activities (CA), Learning design

process (I: Instructional Process in LICAP model)
and LD-analysis/evaluation module (P: Program
Evaluation in LICAP model). We provided this
model and an evaluation scale which support instructors
in constructing, analyseing or evaluating
learning designs.

Our system includes LAMS 2.0 (LAMS (Learning
Activity Management System) International, n.d.)
based on IMS-Learning Design as a repository for
learning activity sequences created by instructors.
An example of learning activity sequences is
shown in Fig.9, which is used as an experimental
