Abstract
In regions without universities, a nationwide challenge arises as young individuals often leave their local communities upon pursuing higher education. In the post-COVID era, this study focuses on identifying effective elements for hybrid face-to-face and online interactions between non-university local cities and university students. Furthermore, the study aims to propose methods for utilizing these elements in the planning and design of interactions on the ground. From the results of interview surveys, effective elements for hybrid interactions are categorized into program entry, content, and exit. To facilitate sharing and utilization of these elements among those planning and designing interactions, the study employs the “Pattern Language” method to create 16 patterns titled “Interaction Design in the Post-COVID Era for Tsushima Glocal University.” Additionally, tools are developed to enhance the utilization of these elements, and practical workshops using the created tools are conducted. Based on the results of these tools and workshops, a tool applicable to non-Tsushima municipalities without universities is devised, aiming for broader application in local cities without university.
