Temporary school closures online classes Physical education at home 16:19 April 16 Kobe

In Hyogo prefecture, which has been temporarily closed in elementary and junior high schools and high schools in response to the declaration of emergency, there are schools where all classes are conducted online, and even students change into gym clothes and even physical education classes at home.

At Suma Gakuen, located in Suma-ku, Kobe, all classes of junior high school and high school have been held online since this month using a video conference system.

At this school, all students are required to prepare computers and smartphones when they enter the school. In the class of third year high school students, students change into uniforms at their homes, sit in front of the computers, and greet in the home room. We exchanged.

Not only the uniform but also the timetable was set as usual. Among them, in the chemistry class, we showed a video of the experiment to check whether the teacher asked the students and understood.

In addition, physical education classes are online.

The students who changed into gym clothes were dancing while checking the movements of the teacher through the screen.

A third-year male student who responded to the interview online said, "I can't go to school, but I'm happy that I can take similar classes."

“I thought it was most important to continue learning in the same situation as when I was in school,” said Yasuko Nishi, president of Suma Gakuen, and started online classes.
