Research On The Effect Of Learning Intervention On MOOC Learners’ Learning Behaviors

MOOC has received extensive attention from the educational circles at home and abroad since its birth.With the rapid development of MOOC,its high dropout rate has always perplexed curriculum developers and platform managers.It becomes particularly urgent that how to effectively improve the learning retention rate,learning participation and learning quality of MOOC learners.Therefore,this study attempts to influence MOOC learners’ learning behaviors from the perspective of learning intervention,and construct a research framework of MOOC learning intervention.Based on the comparison about the learning behaviors of MOOC learners under unconstrained conditions and constraint conditions,this paper illustrates the effect of learning intervention on MOOC learners’ learning behaviors and probes into a new method combining learning intervention with MOOC online resources.The dissertation has seven parts as following.The first part mainly introduces the research background,purpose and significance of the study.Meanwhile,the research ideas and methods of the paper are also described.The second part forms a literature review through the study of learning intervention and learning behavior analysis of MOOC learners,in order to lay a theoretical foundation for subsequent research.The third part classifies the learning intervention factors and the learning behaviors of MOOC learners,and then constructs the research framework of MOOC learning intervention.The fourth part simply introduces “Chinese University MOOC” platform and<Interactive Whiteboard Teaching Application> course,collects and preprocesses the learning behavior data of MOOC learners under unconstrained conditions and constraint conditions.The fifth part compares the learning behaviors related to time,course participation and grades of MOOC learners under unconstrained conditions and constraint conditions,contrasts the differences between these two types of learners’ learning effect.The sixth part carries out the research about the effect of learning intervention onMOOC learners’ learning behaviors according to the data analysis results.The dissertation ends in Part Seven with research conclusions,insufficiencies and some comments on future researches.
