Research on SPOC Blended Teaching Mode——Taking ‘Nonprofit Management’ for Example
Abstract
This study attempts to explore the teaching process and teaching effect in curriculum ‘Management of Nonprofit Organizations’ through a hybrid teaching mode based on SPOC (small private online courses, SPOC). In this study, 32 undergraduate students who majored in administrative management were randomly divided into two groups; the control group adopted the traditional teaching mode, and the experimental group adopted the SPOC blended teaching mode. After the end of each group’s study, theoretical tests and questionnaires are conducted to evaluate the teaching effect of each group. The results showed that the students in the experimental group had significantly higher academic performance and course satisfaction than the students in the control group. The SPOC blended teaching mode helps to motivate students to achieve better results in the test. The blended teaching mode helps students flexibly allocate learning time and make full use of teaching resources. It is a new teaching mode suitable for students who take nonprofit management classes to learn.References
