Computer Courses

In the recent years, teaching of public computer courses of Minzu Universities of China is confronted with the challenges, such as student computer level variation, teaching content surplus, learning hour deficit. Internet-based e-learning can achieve openness, exploration, individualization in terms of teaching, and is able to increase the interaction efficiently. Blended learning, the combination of e-learning and traditional teaching, is an effective solution to the problem of public computer teaching. The article analyzed the problem of public computer teaching in the universities for nationalities, introduced the design and practice of the blended-learning conducted by the Minzu University of China through open-resource platform Moodle, and provided the suggestions for public computer teaching based on the blended learning.

This research was born out of a necessity to accommodate students with learning disabilities who study English for Academic Purposes (EAP) at the Ashkelon Academic College in Israel. It was aimed at examining whether a convergence of traditional teaching and computer technology complemented by e-learning could assist students with Learning Disabilities (LD) to bypass their initial disadvantages when it came to studying English. Groups of LD students selected for study were given five regular and two guided reading tests to explore whether the use of blended learning improved the reading comprehension abilities of students in the sample group.

In this chapter, the authors show a promising model of education in the future. The model is based on blended learning and integrates remote and internal forms. At present, the authors have developed system elements for graduate teacher education, combining classroom training with remote instruction. In this chapter professor Elena Rumbesha (Tomsk State Pedagogical University) and professor Vardan Mkrttchian (HHH University) use the results of previous research and publications about Masters of Education to explain the idea of distance learning as a special form of interaction between teachers and students enabling those to use inherent in traditional teaching forms and methods along with modern distance learning methods.

Online Assignments

In this chapter we present our work aimed at interweaving e-learning and face-to-face learning in Calculus courses for undergraduate engineering students. This type of blended learning (BL) contains the best properties of e-learning and face-to-face learning and helps overcome many obstacles in traditional teaching. We use our approach in order to improve students’ conceptual understanding of theorems. We describe online assignments specifically designed to help students better understand the meaning of a theorem. These assignments are given to students in addition to traditional lectures and tutorials with the objective that they can learn to learn on their own. Students “discover” the theorem and study it independently, by using a “bank” of examples and a lot of theoretical exercises we supply. The assignments are built in such a way that students receive feedback and instructions in response to their Web-based activity.

The Impact

This study evaluates the impact of web-based blended learning in the physiology course at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Montenegro. The two main goals of the study were: to determine the impact of e-learning on student success in mastering the course, and to assess user satisfaction after the introduction of e-learning. The study compared a group of students who attended the physiology course before, with a group of students who attended the physiology course after the Moodle platform was fully implemented as an educational tool. Formative and summative assessment scores were compared between these two groups. The impact of high vs. low Moodle use on the assessment scores was analyzed. The satisfaction among Moodle users was assessed by the survey. The study found that attendance of face-to-face lectures had a positive impact on academic performance. The introduction of Moodle in the presented model of teaching increased interest of students, attendance of face-to-face lectures, as well as formative and summative scores. High frequency of Moodle use was not always associated with better academic performance, suggesting that the introduction of a new method of teaching was most likely equally accepted by low- and high-achieving students. Most of the students agreed that Moodle was easy to use and it complemented traditional teaching very well, but it could not completely replace traditional face-to-face lectures. The study supports continuing the use of web-based learning in a form of blended learning for physiology, as well as for other courses in medical education.

Computer Teaching

With the development of society, the demand for comprehensive talents of computer technology in all walks of life is increasing, and the basic computer education mode and teaching content of traditional college have been difficult to meet the needs of the development of students, also can't satisfy students' thirst for computer knowledge, and the teaching effect and teaching quality are deficient. Therefore, it is imperative to strengthen the basic computer education of universities. Fundamentally improving the level of the students' computer, changing the traditional teaching method and teaching content, blending in the innovative teaching ideas, reforming and innovating the basic computer teaching, are the main tasks of China's basic computer education in colleges and universities in the next moment. This paper discusses the problems existing in basic computer teaching in universities, and puts forward the reform contents of basic computer education, and hopes to further promote the development of basic computer education in China.

The purposes of this study were to examine the differences in learners’ satisfaction of using e-Learning, blended learning, and traditional teaching methods for TR and HI students and to study learners’ autonomy after receiving three different kinds of teaching methods. The informants were 90, second year students majoring in Tourism and Hospitality Industry which were divided by purposive sampling method into three groups of 30 learners, Group A received e-Learning method, Group B received Blended Learning method, and Group C received Traditional teaching style. The research instruments used for data collection were lesson plans, e-Learning program, learners’ perception questionnaires, interview questions, and English Reading Comprehension test (Pretest and Posttest). Quantitative data were collected and analyzed by mean, standard deviation.  The interview data was read, reread, and then coded. Coding organized the raw data into meaningful categories. The results of this study indicated that the overall of students’ satisfaction and autonomous learning rate after receiving their teaching delivery methods were at “good.”  Additionally, the interview results showed that the students were positively satisfied with e-Learning and blended learning. The students have become autonomous learning. Recommendations were made and presented in two categories: benefits of future practice and further research.

This article reports on the use of blended learning in higher education. Blended learning has become popular in higher education in recent years. It is a move beyond traditional lecturing to incorporate face-to-face learning with e-learning, thereby creating a blend of learning experiences. The problem is that learning in higher education is complex and learning situations differ across contexts. Whilst there is face-to-face contact at some institutions, others offer distance learning or correspondence learning. In each context, the mode of learning may differ. The challenge is to cater for various learning opportunities through a series of learning interactions and to incorporate a blended approach. The aim of this study was to examine various ways of defining blended learning in different contexts. This was done through an examination of experiences of the use of blended learning in different higher education contexts. The study presents a case of blended learning in a postgraduate course. The experiences from all these cases are summarised and conclusions and recommendations are made in the context of blended learning in higher education in South Africa.
