The 2020 Covid-19 pandemic has changed the people’s lives in many aspects. In response to the government’s demands on distance education, professors have to change the planned in-class activities to learning activities suitable for the online classes. Regularly, the course content is based on the teaching unit and adopts a modular organization method. Therefore, when design the online course activities, the division of modules is relatively independent. The content of each teaching unit has chapter introductions, the main points of this chapter, learning objectives, learning guidance, research tasks, and other parts. Among them, the research tasks are divided into formative small exercises and group research practice tasks with the support of course space functions. The course structure is a dynamic hierarchical structure, and the relationship between relevant knowledge points is established to ensure that learners can jump as needed in the learning process. Learning activities are one of the two cores of online courses. The teaching objectives of the courses are achieved through a series of teaching activities. Learning activities need to be completed with the help of tools, and different learning activities require different learning resources and learning tools. Learning tools play an important role in helping and promoting cognitive processes, and in training learners’ critical thinking, creative thinking, and integrated thinking processes.
- Thinking visualization tools: concept maps, mind maps such as Mindmanager, Inspiration. Students can use these thinking tools to sort out research ideas and find existing problems.
- Practice plan design tool: Students can use this tool to design, modify, and generate design solutions based on problem-solving online.
- Practice data collection tools: including structured observation form generation tools, online questionnaire generation tools, online test tools, automatic measurement scale generation tools, and evaluation index system generation tools, etc. Through these tools, students can easily collect various practical data.
There are some activities for online courses:
- Situation observation activity: the learner conducts the situation provided by the online course
Observe positively and think and respond according to the questions raised by the teacher. - Data search, analysis, and identification activities: through human-computer interaction, online
Search and retrieve the learning resources provided by the network courses - Line analysis and comparison, and choose to fit.
- Reconstruction of data: students should take root on the basis of existing research data
According to your research topic, you need to deconstruct and reconstruct the research data (induction, performance
Interpretation, comparison, synthesis, etc.). - Independent exploration activities: raise questions around the subject to be explored and be able to
The host will discuss and discuss with teachers and classmates in-depth exploration of related issues.
