Outline of Final Research Achievements

As a result of this study, the in-hospital classroom teachers felt that their own mental stress, access to medical information, professionalism, collaboration, and spreading the information to the school's faculty were issues, and they worked to solve them by introducing the TT system, active involvement of medical personnel in the in-hospital classroom, visits by fellow teachers to the in-hospital classroom, and participation in multidisciplinary conferences led by the attending doctor. This was shown to be effective in reducing teachers' stress and loneliness and in gathering medical information. Parents sought information about illnesses, life at the school site, friendships, and adult relationships. Information about enrollment, participation in online activities, and friendships was found to be obtained from the school garden.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究では、院内学級担任が学習空白をできる限り少なくしたり、スムーズな復学支援につなげたりするための工夫および、保護者がどのような情報を必要とし、その内容の具体はどのようなことであったか、その情報をどこから入手したかについて明らかにした。これにより、院内学級担任の実践や、保護者が入手している情報について、現場レベルで行われている工夫や提供される情報の具体を示すことができた。特に、院内学級担任が行っている工夫については、病弱教育担当教員、特に院内学級担当教員の多くは病弱教育担当経験年数が短いことが示されており、効果的な指導・支援として活用できると考えている。
