Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

病気等により小中学生だけで毎年約4 万人以上の児童生徒が30 日以上の長期欠席を余儀なくされている。これらの児童生徒に対して、文部科学省は児童生徒の学習効果を高めるICT やメディアを利用した「オンデマンド型授業」を用いて学習機会を保障・補完するよう通知している。しかし、ICT リテラシーと病弱教育の専門性を有する教員は非常に少なく、対応できる教員の養成が急務である。本研究ではこの課題に対して、病気療養児の学習機会を保障・補完できる教員を養成するカリキュラムを開発し、ICT機器を活用した病気療養児への学習支援を試行した。
