Kinki University advocates face-to-face implementation of educational and research activities in 2021 in principle. At the start of the first semester class on April 4, various measures are being taken, such as installing ventilation equipment and CO7 concentration measuring instruments in all classrooms and practice rooms.In addition, we will start on-demand common subjects with a large number of students across faculties.
Kinki University established the "New Coronavirus Countermeasures Headquarters" in February 2020, and has been considering countermeasures while incorporating the opinions of experts such as the university's medical school and infectious disease countermeasure consultants. In 2, all the first semester classes were online, and in the second semester, both online and face-to-face were used. In principle, all classes will be conducted face-to-face based on the idea that it is important to do.
In conducting face-to-face educational activities, we installed ventilation equipment at 59 locations and CO427 concentration measuring instruments in 2 rooms, and thoroughly ventilated all classrooms and laboratories on the Higashi-Osaka campus.A signage-type body temperature detection system that can measure the temperature of multiple people at the same time, an auto-disinfectant dispenser, and a partition have been installed so that students can take classes with peace of mind.In addition, in case an infected person occurs, the student ID card can be held over the card reader to confirm the class attendees and campus occupants.As for the cafeteria, it is recommended to reduce the number of seats and set up partitions before eating quietly.
Regarding classes, we will promote on-demand with the aim of providing new education in the New Normal era and improving the learning environment with an eye on post-corona. From 2021, a total of 15 subjects, 1 common liberal arts subjects and 16 TOEIC preparation subject, will be offered on demand.Allow students to choose on-demand lessons if they so desire (lottery if overcapacity).
Depending on the situation of the spread of infection in the future, it may be unavoidable to switch to online classes.
