Design and Research on Online-Merged-Offline(OMO) Blended Learning Scenarios in Primary and Secondary Schools

Abstract

The ‘online-plus-offline’ blended learning model represents a significant innovation in classroom teaching in the new era, and is of great importance for advancing educational modernisation and building a nation of educational excellence. To promote the development of educational informatisation, enhance the quality of primary and secondary education, and meet the individual needs of different regions and schools, the Ministry of Education has set out requirements for the implementation of the ‘Double Reduction’ policy. The state strongly supports the development of basic education and has widely promoted internet-based online teaching and learning activities across primary and secondary schools nationwide. Currently, blended learning scenarios have become a key format for primary and secondary schools to conduct online teaching and learning activities, offering broad prospects for application. Judging from the integrated pre-class, in-class and post-class services currently provided by major platforms for primary and secondary school students, traditional classroom teaching and online platform-based teaching have not yet been fully integrated. This paper first introduces the concept and characteristics of OMO blended teaching scenarios in primary and secondary schools, analyses the current status and existing issues in the application of OMO teaching scenarios, and then presents a design for blended teaching scenarios supported by digital twins, whilst offering recommendations for the design and development of OMO blended teaching scenarios.
