大规模开放在线课程学习交互效果研究

摘要

Massive open online courses attract huge amounts of learners to participate in the courses. Learners discuss content of courses and share resources on the discussion forum. There is a large scale of learners who participate in courses, and the interaction between learners is more complex. To analyze the frequency and structure of learners’ interaction on MOOC discussion forum, there will find out whether the learners triggered massive interaction, or improved the effect of interaction. In order to analyze the level of learning interaction of MOOC courses, the paper used content analysis and social network analysis to study the case which was select-ed from Coursera platform, and found that a large number of people involved in courses interaction on MOOC. Learners pay more attention to share and analyze interactive contents. Part of learners can achieve deep inter-action, but most of learners have a superficial level of interaction. The principle roles of Learners are stronger than the teachers. Teachers need to strengthen their function of guiding learners who are on the edge location and attract learners to participate in the interaction.%大规模开放在线课程( MOOC)吸引了众多学习者参与课程学习，在课程讨论区学习者进行课程内容交流讨论，共享资源。参与课程学习的人数规模庞大，学习者之间的交互比较复杂。对MOOCs讨论区中学习者交互频度和交互结构进行分析，能够探究学习者在MOOCs平台上学习时是否引发大规模交互、是否提高交互效果的情况。本文选取Coursera平台上某门课程的学习者交互活动为案例，使用内容分析法和社会网络分析法进行分析、讨论。研究结果发现，从参与人数和发言看， MOOCs学习交互属于大规模交互；学习者在交互中更注重交互内容的共享和分析；部分学习者在交互中能够达到深度交互，而大部分学习者的交互程度属于浅层交互；在学习交互过程中学习者的主体地位强于教师的主体地位；教师在引导边缘位置的学习者参与交互方面的作用有待加强。
