The application of Internet technology in education has been constantly innovating.People refer to this phenomenon as "Internet + education",which is a new education form combining Internet technology and education.Nowadays,the Internet which plays an important role in learning has the characteristics of efficient,convenient and easy to spread.Mobile learning is simple,flexible to use and it is not restricted by time and place.The miniaturized learning resources are suitable for people to learn in fragmented ways,and mobile applications that integrate multiple functions can support more and more learning activities.While mobile learning has become increasingly popular and has received growing research interest,there appears to be insufficient empirical evidence from rigorous experimental research that supports its effectiveness on learning.By combining quantitative and qualitative research,this paper explores the application effect of mobile micro-learning model in university classroom,and it also focuses on the influence of mobile learning on students' academic performance and learning attitude.This paper applies a mobile learning based on the WeChat to the random grouping experiment in college classroom.The main purpose is to test the learning effect.After all students complete the course study,the students will be tested uniformly.Then the questionnaire was distributed to the experimental group students.The questionnaire survey was conducted on students' learning attitude,learning experience and learning satisfaction.Finally,the experimental group of 3 students and the teacher will have a interview.The purpose is to understand students' basic situation,learning attitude,problems,and real learning experience in mobile terminal learning.The results revealed that mobile learning can produce similar learning results as traditional classroom instruction,but students had mixed attitude towards different aspects of mobile learning.Most students believe that mobile micro-learning model is simple and flexible to use,and not limited by time and space,and the learning content is short and refined to meet the needs of learners' fragmentation learning.However,they also put forward some shortcomings,such as the weak interaction of mobile learning platform,and the lack of teacher supervision and guidance in the process of students' autonomous learning.The research findings make us understand the application effect of micro mobile learning model and contribute to the scholarship of mobile learning.In addition,it can provide useful suggestions for the design of mobile platform and teaching resources.
