As each school needs to take measures to close schools and respond to online classes due to the prevention of the spread of the new coronavirus infection, we held an emergency special event (online pre-project) as an emergency special project (online pre-project) to respond to this unprecedented emergency.
This time, under the theme of “Online Information Exchange Meeting on the Motivation and Learning Motivation of New Students Due to School Closures,” the participants exchanged and exchanged opinions with a focus on maintaining motivation and dealing with the mental health of new students who were closed immediately after entering the school in April.
Since this was the first time the event was held online, this time, 59 people, including high schools in Kyoto Prefecture, participated, although the publicity was limited to information to each high school from the Kyoto High School Collaborative Research Council Secretariat (Kyoto Prefectural Board of Education, Kyoto City Board of Education, and Kyoto Prefectural Federation of Private Junior and Senior High Schools).
The details of this exchange meeting are as follows. In addition, we have posted a report summarizing the contents of this exchange meeting, so we hope that you will refer to it.
* The “Kyoto High School Teacher Exchange Meeting” is a place where people who transcend the boundaries of schools and homerooms to exchange ideas and concerns about school and homeroom management, class improvement, etc., and share their thoughts on solutions.

How to hold the event | Online (Zoom Meeting) |
theme | “Online information exchange meeting related to the motivation and learning motivation of new students due to school closures” |
Contents | With the closure of schools to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus infection, there are concerns that students’ motivation to learn will decrease. In particular, new students are expected to have difficulty maintaining motivation because they will not be able to build relationships with friends and seniors after attending school a few times, and will be closed or switched to online classes. Although there are many issues to be addressed, such as academic ability and daily life, it is important to consider new students, and this time it will be a place for interaction specializing in maintaining motivation and dealing with mental aspects. In addition, it will be an opportunity to experience online interaction through the use of Zoom meetings. |
