The Design Of Interactive Education Platform Based On MOOC Course

Massive open online courses(MOOC) are online course with open access through the web. In China, MOOC has been translated as "Mu Ke". The open courses we had in the past were actually the recordings of the lectures from prestigious colleges. Therefore, they were no more than the copy of offline courses, only placed at online platforms. The "MOOC", however, is a totally different story. It is tailored to the needs of internet users, i.e., the lectures of the courses are specifically designed for online viewers. The core strength of “Mu course” lies in its convenience, which is a double-edged sword for learners. It allows students more freedom in the choice of attending classes, while at the same time requires students to be more self-disciplined. After trying the online courses for a while, the students’ enthusiasm towards novelty tends to fade away and it is often difficult for them to continue studying the online courses. It is indicated that even on the world’s largest "MOOC" platform Coursera, only 4% of students who start a course would make it to the end.Unlike the common online education platforms, this interactive learning system is aimed to turn offline curriculum to online curriculum. It is based on the existing curriculum of South China University of Technology and the results of these courses will eventually be linked to the students’ credits at university. It not only takes full advantages of MOOC system, but also embrace the advantages of traditional education. It enhances students’ involvement and interaction, allowing students to participate in more aspects of the teaching process, so that they can better acquire knowledge and the overall teaching quality can be improved.On the basis of MOOC platform, the aim of the interactive learning system is to design an innovative evaluation system, focusing on improving the whole evaluation process, including the assigning of homework and the marking process. Compared with the previous offline evaluation process, the proposed interactive evaluation system and auto grouping algorithm allows students to complete the tasks in a way that is more similar to the teamwork style in corporations. As a result, students are likely to enhance their teamwork spirit, improve their professional skills and broaden their scope of knowledge, therefore increasing their employability and competitiveness in the job market.
