Does Learning Stickiness of Students on Network Educational Platform Affect Students' Academic Performance?

This paper analyzes the relationship between online learning stickiness and academic performance of students. Based on the analysis of science students' online behavior data which is collected from a network educational platform called Smart Classroom. After the applicability test of data, we set up an indicator system which includes eight indicators on the basis of factor analysis and calculate the online learning stickiness index. Through the distribution fitting, we find out that the distribution of the online learning stickiness index is mixed normal distribution which consists of two normal distributions. According to the distribution of learning stickiness index, we divide the students into two groups and use the method of regression analysis to study the relationship between online learning stickiness and academic performance of the students of two groups respectively. The results show that there is a significant positive correlation between online learning stickiness and academic performance in the group of students with higher online learning stickiness index, while no significant correlation in those with lower online learning stickiness index.
