Applied Research on College Sports Blended Learning Based on Moodle Platform

Abstract

The networking and informatization of education are the inevitable trend of the rapid development of computer technology and educational reform. Compared with other subject education, physical education is less informationalized because of its practicableness. This paper puts forward the idea of sports blended learning based on Moodle platform, aiming at combining web-based learning and traditional physical education so as to promote the reform and development of physical education in colleges and universities. The paper first introduces the research background of Moodle platform and the related theories of blended learning and compares the differences between the college sports blended learning and traditional physical education in terms of teaching process, mode and design. Then based on this, it completes the teaching design based on Moodle platform. At last, it conducts an empirical research on the application of college sports blended learning to badminton teaching, verifying its feasibility and effectiveness in college physical education.

Blended Learning: A New Approach to Teach Ballet Technique for Undergraduate Students

“…Students were more satisfied with BL than the FTF as a mode of delivery (Delialioglu and Yildirim, 2008). However, previous literature supports that BL is more effective than FTF teaching method in relation to course achievement; BL can positively promote students' sports performance and efficiency (Feng, 2018). Smith (2005) emphasized that the BL environment provides improved learning outcomes and improved student and faculty satisfaction.…”

“…Students wisely invested their sources, that is because BL is more student-centered. Feng, (2018) emphasized the influence of the learning situation and environment. This finding of no significant difference is also consistent with Russell (1999) who agreed that BL could be considered as successful as FTF learning according to the no significant difference phenomenon he suggested.…”

“…Such environment pays more attention to the excavation of sports information resources. These resources help the growth of sports knowledge and evaluate students' physical training levels through diversified evaluation modes (Feng, 2018). Turkcapar, (2015) indicates that the use of the BL approach enhances student achievement in the field of volleyball.…”

“…Moodle platform can configure online forums, homework, and other curriculum activities. Also, it optimizes the teaching management while enriching the communication modes in the teaching process, in which forum modules, seminar module, and chat module provide a variety of exchanging platform for students and teachers, as well as students and students (Feng, 2018). Accordingly, BL approach uses a virtual learning environment to deliver learning resources and activities to support learners using a distance learning model.…”

Use of fitness trackers in a blended learning model to personalize fitness running lessons

“…Compared to traditional physical education lessons, college sports blended learning programmes provide integration of online sports learning resources in developing sports technique and physical fitness. The blended learning programmes usually include pre-phase teaching analysis, teaching design, teaching implementation and teaching evaluation respectively (Feng, 2018). In blended learning approach to sports lessons, face-to-face interaction is mixed with physical education with support of modern technologies, such as smart phones and sport watch, or virtual platforms.…”
