What is the difference between micro-courses and traditional courses?

1. Micro-course refers to a structured digital resource that uses information technology to present fragmented learning contents, processes and extended materials according to cognitive rules.

2. The core content of "micro-lesson" is classroom teaching video (lesson fragments), and it also includes auxiliary teaching resources related to the teaching theme, such as teaching design, material courseware, teaching reflection, practice test, student feedback, teacher comments, etc. They * * * create a semi-structured and thematic resource unit application "small environment" with a certain organizational relationship and presentation mode.

3. Micro-courses only teach one or two knowledge points, and there is no complicated curriculum system, and there are not many teaching objectives and teaching objects. It seems that it is not systematic and comprehensive enough, and many people call it "fragmentation". However, micro-courses are aimed at specific target groups and deliver specific knowledge content. A micro-course itself should be systematic, and the knowledge expressed by a group of micro-courses should be comprehensive.

4. A micro-course work generally only corresponds to a certain micro-course type, but it can also belong to the combination of two or more micro-course types (such as questioning teaching and cooperative inquiry). ), and its classification is not unique, so we should maintain a certain degree of openness.

Extended data:

Professor Zhang Yichun believes that "micro-lesson" refers to a short and complete teaching activity around a knowledge point or teaching link, which is carefully designed through information-based teaching and displayed in the form of streaming media to obtain the best effect of learners' autonomous learning. Its form is autonomous learning, the purpose is the best effect, the design is meticulous information teaching design, the form is streaming media, the content is a certain knowledge point or teaching link, the time is short, and the essence is a complete teaching activity. Therefore, for teachers, the most important thing is to do micro-lessons from the perspective of students, rather than from the perspective of teachers, reflecting the student-oriented teaching thought.
