Delays in learning and anxiety about examinations due to the new coronavirus
The spread of the new coronavirus hit the educational field, particularly elementary, junior high, and senior high schools. School closures as a measure to prevent infection had a tremendous impact on many children. This was not limited to learning, but also had a psychological impact.
Many children may have had a hard time studying at home, which is an unfamiliar study method, or may have had difficulty continuing their club activities, which they had worked so hard for. Many school personnel, children, and parents are worried about their future classes and studies due to the spread of the new type of coronavirus.

Challenges for Education in the Era of the New Coronavirus
Educational institutions such as elementary, junior high, and senior high schools have been forced to take measures to prevent the transmission of the new-type coronavirus, such as closing schools and dividing up school attendance. The need to implement online classes in earnest has become widely recognized amid the anticipated second and third waves of the new coronavirus.
In addition, by implementing remote study guidance using online learning systems, positive effects that were not anticipated in the past school education are gradually being seen, such as children who normally have difficulty entering the classroom being able to participate in their own way, even if they do not go as far as truancy.

Possibilities of e-Learning with an eye on "with Corona" and "after Corona
E-learning is a method of learning and training via the Internet using computers and other digital devices. It is an educational method that utilizes information and communication technologies such as PCs, tablet terminals, and the Internet.
In conventional education, the emphasis has been on how much knowledge can be memorized in large quantities. However, now that knowledge and information can be obtained through the Internet in any number of ways, the development of the "ability to use information" and "creativity," the ability to independently select and use what is necessary from a vast amount of knowledge and information, is becoming more important.
As interactive classes and active learning, rather than one-way teaching from teacher to student, are required, e-learning is attracting attention as a learning tool that can assist in this process. Thus, e-learning is expected to be effective in improving the quality of education and realizing new types of learning demanded by the times.
Advantages of e-learning
Students and teachers can learn efficiently while having fun.
Students are more likely to actively participate in class.
Teachers can conduct classes more efficiently.
Online school work will reduce long working hours.
Information can be easily shared among teachers.
