Abstract
The objectives of this research were to compare learning achievement in English online courses of Sichuan University of Science and Engineering students: 1) before and after learning by the O-AMAS teaching, 2) before and after learning by the traditional method, and 3) between two groups of students: the one learning by the O-AMAS teaching and the other learning by the traditional method. The study employed a quasi-experimental research design.
The samples were 80 students studying in the second semester of the academic year 2022 in the College of Education at Sichuan University of Science and Engineering. They were selected by cluster sampling technique. The research instruments included the O-AMAS lesson plans, traditional lesson plans, and learning achievement tests. The data were analyzed by using mean, standard deviation, and t-test.
The results revealed that: 1) the learning achievement in English online courses of Sichuan University of Science and Engineering students after learning by the O-AMAS teaching was significantly higher than that before learning management at .05 level.; 2) the learning achievement in English online courses of Sichuan University of Science and Engineering students after learning by the traditional method was significantly higher than that before learning management at .05 level., and 3) the learning achievement in English online courses of Sichuan University of Science and Engineering students learning by the O-AMAS was significantly higher than those learning by the traditional method at .05 level.
