ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze students' learning behavior in the teaching practice of the presentation-assimilation-discussion (PAD) class based on Xuexitong platform.Methods:The PAD class based on Xuexitong platform was applied to the course of child and adolescent health in the specialty of preventive medicine. And the data were collected from the platform to analyze students' learning behavior, including the number of visits and its rules, the completion rate and duration of homework submission, the completion rate of task points, and the number of students participating in discussions. Questionnaires were used to investigate students' evaluation of the learning effect. SPSS 17.0 was used for Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal Wallis H, and Chi-square test. Results:A total of 99 students visited the platform 40 322 times over 84 days, with a peak on the day of the discussion class, with the highest number of visits from 16:00 to 20:00, and 29.3% (29/99) of them visited the platform for less than 40 days. The completion rate of homework submission was 98.0% (582/594), with 31.1% (181/582) of the person-times less than 6 hours of homework submission duration. The completion rate of task points was 99.0% (3 919/3 960), and the number of students participating in discussions was 3 (2,7). In total, 86.9% to 90.9% of the students thought that the five aspects of learning effect were partly or basically achieved.Conclusion:Students' learning behavior is good on the whole, but their participation in discussion is few, and some of them learn passively, which needs to be further improved.
