Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced a significant shift in the Japanese educational setting. This study aims to explore the characteristics of ICT use in social studies lessons during the pandemic with a Japanese case study. Comparing classes held before and classes during the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a distinct trend visible. In lessons prior to the pandemic, the primary usage for ICT was to record lessons and search online. However, during the pandemic, lessons were remotely conducted using a web conferencing system and students used an online application for a simulated experience. This suggests that ICT may be positioned at the center of practice when considering lessons after the COVID-19 pandemic.
