Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the learning effectiveness of application of integration of a technology-based platform PaGamPO with preview strategies to the implementation of grade 8 junior high school Chinese subject in Chinese teaching. The researcher completed the pre-test and post-test of the experimental class first, and then applied PaGamO platform to the preview activities. The students had to complete the teaching videos and questions designed by the teacher on PaGamO platform. Upon completion of tasks, the researcher started to implement the teaching. After the teaching was completed, the researcher performed the post-test. The same procedures implemented in the experimental class were also implemented in the control class. However, the control class did not implement the PaGamO preview activities, and only watched the teaching videos. Upon completion of the pre-test, the control class directly participated in the teaching activities and post-test.
According to the results of pre-test and post-test, the difference in the class implementing the PaGamO platform preview activities reached significance. The research results showed that the students could be helped to achieve higher learning effectiveness using the integration of PaGamO platform with teaching videos to implement preview activities than using teaching video watching alone to implement preview activities. The research results can be provided as reference for Chinese teachers to apply e-learning and conduct subsequent related studies.
