Summary/Abstract: This study examined Japanese university students’ communication skills in English language classes depending on the class modality in-person and online classes. A quantitative survey was used and the Encode, Decode, Control, and Regulate (ENDCOREs) Model scale was employed to measure communication skills. The results showed that several significantly higher scores were found in the online class but for the “Other acceptance,” subscale, the differences in scores between the in-person and online classes were not significant. Moreover, the online class showed higher scores in the communication skills measurements than the in-person class, aside from “Assertiveness” and “Other acceptance.”
