Colorkrew Biz is effective in preventing the spread of the new coronavirus in the office, but in fact, inquiries and introductions outside the office are increasing.
Where is that... Universities and vocational schools!
This time, I would like to introduce how schools that have introduced Colorkrew Biz are working hard to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus.
Will Colleges Return to In-Person Classes?
Before the case, I looked into the current situation of the university.
According to a survey by the Nikkei, more than 90% of universities chose online classes in 2020, but from 2021, about 60% have chosen face-to-face classes。
More than half of them are trying to adopt face-to-face styles!
Rather than being 100% face-to-face, I think there are many hybrid classes that mix online classes and face-to-face classes, but the most important thing is that university students' campus life will return.
Of course, university is a place to study, but I think that campus life with friends is also very important in my future life.
Therefore, I would be happy to hear that even in such a situation, students will be able to communicate in real places other than online.
However, incorporating face-to-face classes also increases the risk of infection with the new coronavirus.
If face-to-face classes are to be incorporated, it is necessary to implement infection prevention measures at each university.
In addition, measures are essential to prevent the occurrence of on-campus clusters even if positive cases occur.
An effective new coronavirus infection prevention measure at universities is attendance management!
In order to protect students at the university, it is also important to create an environment that does not follow the three Cs and maintains social distancing.
In addition, be prepared for emergencies and incorporate on-the-spot management.
That's why we recommend Colorkrew Biz!
It protects students with two main functions.
(1) Seat Management
When Colorkrew Biz scans the QR code from the app, it will show you who is sitting where on the seating chart, so you can know where and when students are gathering in real time.
Since you can visualize how many people are in each room, you can quickly understand if there are many students and take measures.
This seating management function can also be applied to class attendance management.
Using a personal smartphone and scanning the QR code, the time is also displayed in real time, so you can also prevent fraudulent actions such as replying on behalf of absent students.
(2) Seat Log
With Colorkrew Biz, you will keep a seating log of your students.
In the unlikely event that a positive case occurs on campus, it is possible to immediately obtain information about who was taking classes in which classroom and in which seat. It also has an analysis function and can easily identify close contacts, making it effective as a measure to prevent clusters on campus.
It is very difficult and time-consuming to understand the behavior of students after an infected person is discovered, so it is very important to take measures in advance.
In fact, there was a case of a new coronavirus infection in a company that has introduced Colorkrew Biz, but it seems that close contacts can be identified immediately from the seat log and countermeasures can be taken.
I have explained the functions so far, but I would like to introduce some universities that are actually introducing them in the future.
University Measures to Prevent Novel Coronavirus Infection University of Tokyo Graduate School
The Southern Laboratory of the Department of Materials Engineering, Graduate School of Engineering, The University of Tokyo was one of the first to introduce Colorkrew Biz in the spring of 2020 so that research can be conducted safely in the laboratory even during the coronavirus pandemic.
In the laboratory of the University of Tokyo's Graduate School, there was originally a condition that experiments should not be conducted by one resident, and due to the influence of the new coronavirus, there is an agreement to limit the number of people per area.
Since we have to reduce the contact rate in each room, we scan QR codes and use Colorkrew Biz to manage who is staying in which room.
(The Southern Laboratory currently has six rooms, and each of the rooms and laboratories currently uses three QR codes for attendance management.) ）
The university's original personnel management system only knew whether they were coming to the university or not, but by thoroughly scanning the QR code of Colorkrew Biz when moving rooms, it became clear when and where they were there.

Measures to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus at universities Niigata University
Niigata University, which has approximately 13,000 students, is taking measures to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus, such as thoroughly avoiding the three Cs and installing thermal cameras and disinfectants when conducting face-to-face classes.
In addition, in the unlikely event that a student is found to have been infected with the new coronavirus, Colorkrew Biz has been introduced since April 2021 with the aim of identifying and responding to close contacts and disinfecting related facilities based on information such as seats used by the student.
Niigata University has about 7,800 QR codes (about half of the total seats) installed on the seats.
When students attend class, they scan the QR code from their smartphones and select "Attend".
After class, I press "Exit" to manage the student's attendance.
The QR code sticker on the desk displays Japanese and English, and it seems that it is also compatible with international students.
In addition, laboratories and practice rooms may install QR codes near the entrance of the classroom instead of desks.
The Nihon Keizai Shimbun introduced a case study of Niigata University using Colorkrew Biz.

Contribute to the University's COVID-19 infection prevention measures and protect students!
Originally, Colorkrew Biz was a business concierge tool that reduces unsung work ™ in the office, but in this corona disaster, it has created new value such as office density management, prevention of new coronavirus infection, and support for hybrid work that mixes office and telework.
What we can do.
It is to protect the bright campus life of Japanese students by utilizing the knowledge accumulated so far and disseminating it to universities and other educational settings.
Currently, we have received many inquiries from school-related people, and we feel the need for measures to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus through on-site management at educational sites.
