Title
Hybrid teaching mode for laboratory-based remote education of computer structure course.
Abstract
We describe an Open edX-based blended course developed for a reformed Computer Structure course at Beihang University. In three iterations of this laboratory-based course, we dive into key issues that impact students' learning, and then redesign our curriculum, which integrated with virtual laboratory technique into the MOOC platform. We show how certain course design aspects affect students' learning in the hybrid teaching mode: (a) Kung Fu style competency education with online-support laboratory system prompts students to own their learning as the pace and/or the path of learning, which is dictated by mastery instead of the time/space; (b) strengthen the use of learning-aid tools empowered teachers with the skills and information to define standard for each learner in each stage; (c) automated test technology make this blended learning possible at scale and also financially sustainable; (d) using discussion forum to build the lesson about 'what to do' when learners get stuck helped in overcoming challenges.
