Abstract: | Most Japanese universities run under the semester system. Some of them, and many other universities in other countries, employ trimester and quarter systems. In this study we collected data about school terms from universities in Japan, Canada, the U.S.A. and England. As the next step, we made models of students in science and literature courses. Then we changed the school term from semesters to trimesters and quarters. In this context, we studied the circumstances for students who wanted to go abroad for a short period. If a student is absent for one quarter to go to abroad, it may be diffi cult to obtain a full year’s credits in the remaining three quarters. This demonstrates the importance of not only the school system but also the total supporting system, including credit transfer for students. |
