Norifumi Kawabata (Emerging Media Initiative, Kanazawa University)

A Study on Promoting DX from an Information Science Field — from Cross Reality to Biological Signal Processing and Large-Scale Parallel Computing Architecture –

Abstract:Digital transformation (DX) technologies are increasingly essential not only for universities but for society as a whole. Among these, data compression, signal processing, and system acceleration related to multimedia and information systems represent critical challenges. In this presentation, I will introduce research on promoting DX from an information science perspective, which I have pursued at Emerging Media Initiative, Kanazawa University. This research will be presented around three key themes: “Cross Reality,” “Biological Signal Processing,” and “Large-Scale Parallel Computing Architecture.”

Three Cases of Educational DX Practices ― Toward a Student-Driven STEAM Education Model

This presentation introduces three case studies implemented with support from the Emerging Media Initiative of Kanazawa University (Information and Media Center).The first is a 3D virtual microcontroller simulator that enables beginners to safely experience wiring and code editing.The second is a short-term 3D development course using Unity and the IoT cloud, focusing on motivation formation and analyzed through the KJ method and AI-KJ method.The third is a virtual campus project created by students, which contributed to digital skill development and educational value.What these cases share is that student-centered development frameworks form the core of learning.These results suggest that such frameworks promote creative trial-and-error and interdisciplinary learning and indicate new directions for STEAM education.
