Learning effectiveness of science experiments through cloud multimedia tutorials

We are witnessing today an exponential growth of Internet technology at an accelerating pace. There are increasingly more and more open and free teaching and learning Websites of competitively high quality. When computer labs and multimedia classrooms were limited in school, most instructors were only able to seldom take advantage of rare technology facilities, rendering insufficient effect of learning given the bulk of demands. The government of Taipei County dedicated to comprehensive computer lab updates of all junior high schools within its jurisdiction at the end of March, 2010, expediting full establishment of e-classrooms equipped with computers and projectors. The University is luckily among the beneficiaries, despite the working efficiency of old computers. In pursuit of understanding how to promote the learning approaches and strategies of distant learning, the research conductor attempts to look at the online tutorials of integrated application with information techniques in addition to traditional classrooms and labs. The author hopes to probe the learning effect of distant learning using the study and questionnaire survey on the base of the author's instructed class, accumulating practical experience of traditional learning using online learning tutorials. The conclusions of the study will be used as the foundation for future distant learning promotion and strategy planning.
