Hi, summer

I really sympathize with what you said about learning materials. My study materials also include online reading and YouTube videos. The purpose of choosing video is that it can more succinctly describe what I want to teach. A variety of video playback functions to meet the different needs of learners. When I study in the library, I often mute my videos. This allows you to watch the video without interfering with others’ learning. In addition, the recording of class audio you mentioned in the article is also a good way. It is more convenient for learners who cannot attend classes in time, and they can also review the learning content through the audio.

Inclusive design is an important part of interactive design learning. Teachers engage learners with a variety of learning content. It can also break down all kinds of learning barriers. Everyone has an equal right to learn.

• Inclusive design focuses on the differences between learners and prevents some learners from being marginalized. When we designing the learning program, we should enrich the teaching resources and content as much as possible.

• My interactive learning resources include Youtube videos and reading materials. Youtube videos can be subtitled in different languages. This helps those students who are not very good at English. My interactive learning resource is an introduction to AI. For example, blind people can also listen to audio to understand the definition and function of AI. Online reading helps learners who can’t watch videos or don’t like to watch videos. They can also clearly understand the learning content through reading.

• The face of COVID-19, we must study at home. Online teaching is possible through software such as ZOOM. Teachers can prepare more readings and videos to enrich the teaching content. In addition, tests and discussions during learning can also be conducted online. For example, UVIC’s brightspace, allows for online exams and discussions. In addition, learner can also use other software to interact online.

• In my study activities, the online reading I choose is very long. I think this will be one of the barriers that prevents learners from learning. Because everyone’s attention is limited. For example, when we have a class in college, the duration of a class is usually one hour, the maximum is about three hours. Because people’s attention will become less and less as time goes on. In addition, each person has a limited capacity to absorb new knowledge. I would like to divide the long reading into two or three parts when assigning learning objectives and tasks. Learners can read at different times.

• I think the obstacle that may exist in the learning environment is the problem of learner’s attention. When designing web pages, try to be as clean and clear as possible. Designers should not add too many decorations, so as not to distract attention. Try to be as diverse as possible in your learning activities. For example, use multiple media sources, Youtube, online reading, charts, picture examples. You can also break up long study materials into smaller sections. Break down tasks into manageable sizes. For example, instead of focusing on one test, it can be divided into two or three smaller tests. In this way, the psychological pressure of learners will not be too large, and learning will be more relaxed.
