Abstract
This paper attempts to overcome the defects of traditional English learning mode, including poor real-time communication ability, heavy reliance on individual self-discipline, and undesirable learning effect. Drawing on the theories of English learning motivation, the author analyzed the relationship between learning motiva-tion and learning behavior in light of the Edmodo-based blended English learning mode, and put forward the English learning persistence rate formula, thus reveal-ing the correlations between learning cost, objective external learning environ-ment, learning motivation, and learning persistent rate. In addition, the English courses were made more pertinent according to the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve. The course test data were fitted and weighted, outputting intuitive curves on learning effect. The research results show that the Edmodo-based blended Eng-lish learning mode has a significant learning effect, and a guiding significance for English learning and English teaching reform.
Highlights
In China's education system of primary schools, middle schools and colleges, English education and English learning have always been the educational focus of all people
Based on the Edmodo learning platform, this paper introduces the English learning motivation theory, and the human memory law - the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve; through tests and experiments, in terms of enhancing English learning motivation and improving learning methods and strategies, it analyzes the effectiveness of English learning under the blended learning mode
By calculating the test scores and homework results of students at all stages on the Edmodo platform, the English learning curve could be obtained as shown in Figure 5, after the curve was subject to binomial fitting, the fitting formula of the curve is obtained as: y=0.0001x2+0.0037x+0.5191, and the English learning scores could be directly read from the figure, and the Edmodo-based blended learning mode has a significant effect on English learning which requires many memorizing tasks
Summary
In China's education system of primary schools, middle schools and colleges, English education and English learning have always been the educational focus of all people. Taking the advantage of the convenience of artificial intelligence and social software, with this learning mode, students could learn the course contents quickly in a timely manner, and teachers could supervise and manage the students’ learning process in real time, as well as carry out comprehensive tests on English learning effect in stages; under this mode, students could master effective learning methods in a good learning environment; with the help of the Edmodo learning platform [4], the supervisory and managerial role of teachers can be fully exerted, and the productive English learning results would bring students with confidence in learning, their passive learning motivation could turn into positive learning motivation, and it urges them to maintain enthusiasm and interests in independent English learning. Based on the Edmodo learning platform, this paper introduces the English learning motivation theory, and the human memory law - the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve; through tests and experiments, in terms of enhancing English learning motivation and improving learning methods and strategies, it analyzes the effectiveness of English learning under the blended learning mode
