The Construction and Effect of the MOOC-based One Plus Three Teaching Model During the COVID-19 Pandemic

“Undisruptive learning with disruptive classes” is the principle for Chinese higher education institutions to handle the challenge they encounter during the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study is to promote online teaching across three scenarios: online teaching for students within one college, online teaching for students across different colleges, and online training for primary and secondary school teachers. Guided by the “Internet+” concept, we design the MOOC-Based One Plus Three teaching model. Moreover, we apply the model in designing and developing online courses on the Chinese Universities MOOC platform. Empirical results have shown that the model effectively solves the needs of large-scale emergency teaching during the pandemic across online teaching for students within one college, online teaching for students across different colleges, and online training for primary and secondary school teachers. This model supports the rapid implementation of online teaching in more than 180 colleges and over more than 20 courses across the country with 58,107 preservice teachers, in-service teachers, related business employees enrolled. This highly feasibly model embodies the Internet thinking and consists of various teaching methods, and thus maximize the effectiveness of online teaching. This model especially supports the online teaching of the Instructional Technology program at universities (e.g., Hubei University of Education) which are severely affected by the pandemic. Therefore, the model has a positive promotion and application value.
