摘要:Using Internet technology to develop and support university online education programs has become a hot research topic in recent years. Online learning supported by technology is very different from traditional learning in traditional classroom, but many key issues influencing learning performance in online education programs have not been empirically investigated. This research aims to focus on two key factors, teaching pedagogy and supporting technology and examine the effects of the two factors on learning performance in an online education program. Based upon literature review, differences between online virtual learning environment (VLE) and traditional learning environment (TLE) are summarized and a conceptual research framework is proposed to guide the empirical investigation of the effects of teaching pedagogy and technology on learning performance. A survey will be conducted in the near future.
