At Rissho University, in the "Class Improvement Questionnaire" for all undergraduate students, the results of the first term of 2020, which became a full-scale online class, exceeded the scores of face-to-face classes up to 1 in many items.
Rissho University conducts a "class improvement questionnaire" every six months for all undergraduate students for the purpose of improving classes.This time, the subjects were 5 subjects excluding subjects with less than 1,284 participants and exercises / seminars, and the number of responses was 5 and the response rate was 3384%.
As a result of the survey, when compared with the scores of face-to-face lessons over the past three years, the scores increased in all the questions analyzed and compared, such as attendance rate, content comprehension, and knowledge acquisition level.For example, when asked "How many hours did you spend out-of-class learning (preparation / review) for this one lesson?", "Nothing at all" decreased significantly from around 3% in the usual year to 1%.About 40% of the students spent more than an hour studying outside the class.In addition, the overall satisfaction level increased from about 14 points in the usual year to 3 points, and the score increased in all the questions, and a certain educational effect was seen in the online class.
Comparing the scores by class type *, in the "on-demand delivery type" and "on-demand delivery type + simultaneous interactive type (composite type)" classes, many questions will be scored from 2019 (out of 5 points). Rise. The score for the question "Did you understand the content of the lesson?" Was 4.22 points for "on-demand delivery type" (up 0.22 points from the previous year) and 4.44 points for "on-demand delivery type + simultaneous interactive type" (0.30 points compared to the previous year). (Point UP), the result was high compared to other lesson styles.From these results, it can be inferred that in online lessons, a method centered on "on-demand delivery type" is a lesson format with a higher educational effect.
In the "material distribution type" and "simultaneous interactive type", some classes scored high points, while others had low scores, and the overall satisfaction score varied. In the "material distribution type", when asked "Do you think you actively worked to understand the lesson content?", The score improved significantly, but "Did you feel the teacher's enthusiasm and motivation for the lesson?" As a result, it decreased by 0.21 points (4.18 points) from the previous year, and it became clear that there is room for improvement depending on the lesson subject.
At Rissho University, face-to-face lessons will be partially resumed in the second term, which will start in October, but online lessons will continue in consideration of measures against infectious diseases.In the future, in addition to the characteristics of each lesson style found from the results of the questionnaire analysis, we will continue to analyze the opinions of students and other survey results, and strive to resolve improvement issues.
* Class types are "material distribution type" that uses only textbooks and lecture materials, "on-demand distribution type" that allows you to watch pre-recorded lessons on Stream / YouTube, etc., and video call software such as Zoom / Teams. Classified into a total of 3 types, including 3 types of "simultaneous bidirectional type" by real-time distribution and 6 types of these composite types.
