What are the advantages of micro-class compared with traditional classroom teaching?

The traditional teaching video is to transform the actual classroom teaching into a reproducible and treatable video resource with the help of certain technical equipment. It has not significantly changed the curriculum objectives and curriculum capacity of a class. The same is true for micro-courses. Some scholars have analyzed the differences between micro-lessons and traditional teaching videos from the dimensions of video duration, content units, teaching objectives, flexibility, interactivity, development, situational, resource richness, and the degree of connection between knowledge points. From the point of view of duration, micro-lessons are generally 5~ 10 minutes, while traditional classroom video recording is generally 40 ~ 45 minutes.

From the content unit, micro-lessons are generally based on knowledge points, while traditional classroom videos are generally based on class hours, units or chapters. From the perspective of teaching objectives, the teaching objectives of micro-courses are single and clear, while the traditional classroom video teaching objectives are diversified. In terms of flexibility, micro-lessons are more flexible, and can be downloaded and viewed by mobile terminal devices, while traditional teaching videos are inconvenient to watch on mobile devices because of their large capacity.
