Teachers of application software in Taiwan have traditionally applied disjointed and out-of-context examples in their teaching, which usually result in ineffective learning outcomes. A Web-enhanced, collaborative learning approach was therefore adopted to help students become involved in a course more positively. Additionally, the teacher provided initiation, establishing the essential knowledge and required skills for students at the beginning of the course in order to help students climb the learning curve. The results showed that students who received Web-enhanced collaborative learning with initiation were significantly more involved than those who did not receive the initiation. Moreover, findings also revealed that the initiation contributed to significant increases in students' involvement at the end of the course. The implications for teachers, schools, and scholars who plan to provide Web-based learning for their students are also discussed.
台湾应用软件教师在教学中传统上采用不连贯和脱离上下文的例子,这通常导致学习效果不佳。因此,采用了增强型 Web 的协作学习方法来帮助学生更积极地参与课程。此外,教师在课程开始时为学生提供启动,建立必要的知识和所需的技能,以帮助学生攀登学习曲线。结果表明,接受增强型 Web 协作学习和启动的学生比没有接受启动的学生更积极地参与。此外,研究结果还表明,启动有助于在课程结束时显著增加学生的参与度。对于计划为学生提供基于 Web 的学习的教师、学校和学者也讨论了其意义。
