Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary states that education involves learning and then defines learning as the acquisition of knowledge or understanding through study, instruction, or experience.1 This is the best and broadest definition of the term I know of and the one that most closely informs what I do in my work as director of the Cushing Memorial Library and Archives at Texas A&M University. I consider any activity that provides opportunities for study or experience as education. In a special collections environment, this includes traditional classroom teaching as well as many other undertakings—exhibits, displays, guided and self-guided tours, . . .

Abstract. With the continuous improvement of education informatization level, especially the rise of MOOC, online and offline hybrid teaching, which organically combines traditional classroom teaching with network teaching, is endowed with more abundant connotation. The outbreak of the COVID-19 in 2020 also makes colleges and universities pay more attention to the important role of the network education platform in teaching. How to carry out the mixed teaching scientifically is becoming a new topic. In this paper, the hybrid teaching is applied to the teaching of computer network course, which can not only stimulate students' interest in learning, but also mobilize students' learning initiative and improve their learning effect.

Traditional Classroom Teaching

Abstract Tutoring is often a useful supplement to traditional classroom teaching in Canada. Cross-age tutoring, which involves a tutor a few years older than a tutee, has been reported to be more effective than same-age tutoring, as it promotes responsibility, empowerment and academic performance. However, the current same-age classroom teaching may act as a barrier to cross-age tutoring because the latter requires plenty of coordination, preparation and organization. At Crescent School, an all-boys independent school in Toronto, Canada, a pilot online cross-age peer-tutoring program was launched in September 2014, named Crescent School vLearning. The purpose of this study was to formally assess the program, and quantitatively gauge its success. Thirty-six questions were randomly selected from the vLearning website, examined for response time and response quality as assessed by students and teachers. The fast response times as well as the high-quality of responses have resulted in the program gaining traction in the school. As vLearning continues to catch-on with students, the team of Upper School tutors will soon need to be expanded to accommodate the increasing volume of questions.

Traditional Classroom Teaching

The traditional teaching mode focuses on teachers’ instructions. However, this approach provides few opportunities for teacher–student interaction and single teaching form and lacks training on the independent learning ability of students. By contrast, massive open online course (MOOC) teaching mode completely depends on independent student learning and lacks effective monitoring. Thus, this approach results in low completion rate of courses and failure to completely replace the traditional classroom teaching model. This study constructed a teaching mode called small private online course (SPOC) by combining MOOC and traditional teaching modes to increase teaching effect. The specific application process of SPOC teaching mode was elaborated using a case study of “College English.” The study showed that SPOC teaching mode has more extensive teaching content, stronger learning interest of students, and better teacher–student interaction than the traditional teaching mode. Moreover, the SPOC teaching mode improved the independent learning ability of students, addressed the shortcomings of traditional classroom teaching, and facilitated the deep applications of information technology in classroom teaching. Thus, the present teaching mode is perfected.
