In this paper, the author first analyze the current situation of the present domestic Web-based college English learning platform, analyze and summarize the problems exists, and propose research objectives of this subject. Then, to explore the guidance of theory that design and develop a web-based college English self-regulated learning platform required for; On this basis, according to relevant learning theories and principles of design and development in light of the characteristics of college English and the actual needs, put forward the overall design thinking of developing a web-based College English self-regulated learning platform, constructed the whole platform, design the function and the database detailed, and to carry out specific development. The platform provides students with learning tools, learning resources, exchange platform, test and evaluation platform; can evaluate the learning action, learning processes and learning outcomes of students, students can understand their own learning from the evaluation platform, and then adjust their own learning to obtain high quality and efficiency of learning. Teachers can also use the course release module to enrich the learning resources and realize to share labor of a number of teachers. In order to test the real application of this platform, tested this platform in practice teaching to analyze self-learning process of the students, and an analysis of the data collated. Finally, sum up the characteristics of the platform, as well as inadequacies, and in the basis, outlook the future research direction and focus for future research.

Abstract Background The web-based BeUpstanding program supports desk workers to sit less and move more. Successfully translated from a research-delivered intervention, BeUpstanding has gone through iterative development and evaluation phases in preparation for wide-scale implementation. In the third planned “early-adopters” phase (01/09/2017–11/06/2019), the program was made freely-available online. An integrated delivery and evaluation platform was also developed to enable workplace champions to run and evaluate the intervention within their work team independent of researcher support. Using the RE-AIM (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance) framework, this study reports on the extent to which the program and processes were “fit-for-purpose” for a national implementation trial across the indicators of uptake (reach and adoption), implementation and engagement, and effectiveness for behaviour change. Methods Data were collected via the online surveys embedded in the program and through program access analytics. Descriptive data (with linearized variance for the clustered staff-level data) and results from mixed models (repeated data and clustering for pre-post changes) are reported. Results Despite purposeful limited promotion, uptake was good, with 182 Australian users initially registering (208 total) and 135 (from 113 organisations) then completing the sign-up process. Recruitment reached users across Australia and in 16 of 19 Australian industries. Implementation was inconsistent and limited, with signed-up users completing 0 to 14 of the program’s 14 steps and only 7 (5.2%) completing all seven core steps. Many champions (n = 69, 51.1%) had low engagement (1 day toolkit usage) and few (n = 30, 22%) were highly engaged (> 1 day toolkit usage and surveyed staff). Although only 18 users (7 organisations) performed the pre- and post-program staff evaluations (337 and 167 staff, respectively), pre-post changes showed the program effectively reduced workplace sitting by − 9.0% (95% CI -12.0, − 5.9%). Discussion The program had uptake across industries and across Australia, but implementation and engagement varied widely. Few workplaces completed the evaluation components. In those that did, the program was effective for the primary outcome (workplace sitting). Conducting a planned early adopters phase and a comprehensive evaluation according to RE-AIM helped highlight necessary program improvements to make it more suitable for wide-scale implementation and evaluation.

Collaborative Evaluation

In conceptual design, a number of design concepts and alternatives would be generated. These concepts and alternatives usually need to be evaluated to reduce the search space. However, it is not easy for the designers to determine which alternative is better, especially in the design environment where multiple designers might be involved. Current researches mainly focused on the evaluation models, but rarely provide the integrated tools to assist the evaluation process. To address this problem, we propose a web-based collaborative design evaluation platform and two evaluation principles for different evaluation situations. A design case is used to illustrate the evaluation process, where it is necessary for the designers to select a working phenomenon for the “generate force” subfunction of a nailing machine.
