Effects of the Application of Computer Network Technology to Guided Discovery Teaching on Learning Achievement and Outcome

Abstract

The development of computer and information technology has human society enter a brand-new information era. The most obvious change is that information becomes inevitable living focus in human life. The promotion of education reform in the world also has information education present the important status, expecting to train students' capability to grasp information and enhance the learning outcome with information technology. Eventually, they could learn the survival skills in the information society as well as promote national competitiveness. With quasiexperimental study, 252 students in Harbin Institute of Technology are proceeded 16-week (3hr per week for total 48 hours) experimental teaching. The research results show that 1.guided discovery teaching would affect learning achievement, 2.guided discovery teaching would influence learning outcome, 3.learning achievement presents significantly positive effects on learning effect in learning outcome, and 4.learning achievement shows remarkably positive effects on learning gain in learning outcome. Finally, suggestions, according to the results, are proposed, expecting to provide thinking methods and direction for students' learning, encourage students to make deeper thinking, and help students establish learning achievement in the principle discovery process to enhance learning efficiency through the practice of computer network technology in guided discovery teaching.

Promoting Guided-Discovery Learning Through Whatsapp to Students in Open University

“…Besides, the GDL method also can build students' autonomous learning. Lyu & Wang (2018) stated that guided-discovery learning can enhance learning autonomy. Autonomous learning is the main goal of distance learning.…”

Discovery Teaching about Plane Geometric Extreme Problems with the Help of Geogebra Software at Secondary School in Vietnam

“…Teachers with available experience as well as critical thinking will comprehensively evaluate students' learning activities and connect teaching with real life. [7] Discovery teaching is a teaching method designed to engage students, under the guidance of a teacher, and through reading materials, they will gain insight into problems. [8] Discovery teaching is a teaching process in which students experience the practice of information discovery, to find new concepts or rules while helping students create new strategies or solutions.…”

Improving higher-order thinking skill through POE (Predict, Observe, Explain) and guided discovery learning models

“…Guided discovery learning model has some strength (1) the engagement of the students is maximal, (2) the students are guided to find concept independently, (3) there is team work in solving the problems, (4) increases students' learning activities, (5) increases students' creativity and agility in solving the problems, (6) students' are trained to apply their knowledge in daily life (Hulukati et al, 2018;Sulistyowati, Widodo, & Sumarni, 2012). By connecting learning materials and students' cognition structure in guided teaching, teachers provide a conceptual structure for students more stably (Lyu & Wang, 2018;Martaida et al, 2017).…”
