To try out the learning online for efficiency, the tests were divided into three components: 1) one–to–one testing of 3 students, 2) small–group testing of 9 students, and 3) field group testing of 26 students.

The research results showed that the video–clip posted on YouTube for the experiment in Art Appreciation course for the Hospitality Management freshmen had effectiveness index 0.58. Therefore, the video–clip posted on YouTube had achieved the objective of this research and would be used for actual teaching and online learning in Art Appreciation course for the Hospitality Management freshmen.
