The purpose of this study was to explore college students' learning efficiencies by strategic applications of "integrated teaching of visual media." 72 sophomore college students were chosen from two classes who took the course of nutrition and health. The quasi-experimental approach was adopted and students were divided into the experimental group (were taught by the integrated teaching of visual media) and the control group (were taught by traditional teaching methods without any assistances of visual media). All students completed the 20 hour program in a ten-week integrated teaching of nutrition and health during the 2013 academic year. All statistical research results would be summarized in the following way: (1) Experimental group students, who had mastered strategic skills for integrated teaching of visual media, had superior posttests learning achievements and more larger effect size to those of controlling group students. (2) By comparisons between posttests and pretests, the same experimental group students had more significant learning achievements and comprehension of posttests in nutrition and health than those of pretests. (3) As for the performances of integrated teaching of visual media, experimental group students indicated more positive learning attitudes and over larger effect sizes in nutrition and health. (4) After semi-structure interviews, the experimental group students who thought the viewpoints of integrated teaching would attract their learning curiosity and promote learning achievements and concept recognition. |
