Due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, 2020% of higher education institutions such as universities in Japan conducted online classes in 96.8, but the preparation period was only about one month, and there was a delay in professional response such as copyright. However, it was found in a national survey of Nikkei BP Consulting.

 The survey was conducted in June by mail to universities, junior colleges, and colleges of technology nationwide, using a web response method, and responses were obtained from 6 schools.

 According to the report, online classes were conducted at 2020 schools, which is 96.8% of the total, in 310.Of these, all national universities and technical colleges answered that they had "implemented".The ratio of online lessons to all lessons was 6% for "7 to 25.6%" and 8% for "9 to 24.1%".More than 7% of all higher education institutions conducted more than 5% of all classes online.

 57.7% of the respondents answered that the preparation period for online lessons was "within one month" because they hurriedly conducted online lessons in the midst of the corona. Including higher education institutions that answered "within 1 to 2 months", it has reached more than 3% of the total."ZOOM" accounted for 9% of the tools.

 However, probably because it was carried out in a hurry, only 26.7% of the total was able to carry out training on copyright, portrait rights, personal information protection, etc.Only the minimum amount of support has been provided for improving the skills of faculty and staff, and it seems that there is a delay in professional response.

 As a future task, many people mentioned high-flex type lessons that incorporate face-to-face and online into one lesson.
