    by Jing Tian 
    Abstract: This paper aims to present an online teaching pedagogic experience for the practice-oriented computer vision course during the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 has been disruptive to the education system worldwide, particularly to the computer vision course that usually requires face-to-face lectures and project collaboration during the study. This paper addresses three fundamental questions in teaching computer vision courses: 1) how to design the course topic and adapt to the online teaching format?; 2) how to conduct hybrid project collaboration in a hybrid mode?; 3) how to conduct the course assessment efficiently online? More specifically, this paper presents the pedagogic experience, including learning objectives, course curriculum structure, teaching methodologies, as well as final holistic assessments. The presented approach is an effective way of teaching practical computer vision courses, as verified by feedback from students. These experiences can be insightful to other lecturers who need to design, develop and deliver similar courses in the post pandemic era.

    Abstract: In order to overcome the problems of the traditional recommendation algorithm of English online learning resources, such as low accuracy, poor convergence and low success rate of recommendation. This paper proposes a recommendation algorithm for online language autonomous learning resources driven by CORUS. Based on the learning vector quantisation (LQN) algorithm, the model of subject word generation based on vector corpus resources is established. In the parameter training of the classification model, the vector weight is normalised to complete the optimisation of the corpus resource classification LVQ subject model. According to the binary particle swarm optimisation algorithm, the personalised recommendation model of autonomous learning resources is implemented. Experimental results show that the proposed vector quantisation network algorithm has high convergence, and the recommended success rate is 99.5%. Therefore, the method proposed in this paper can effectively complete the recommendation of English online autonomous learning resources.

    by Hongjiang Wang, Zuokun Li, Xiaojin Wang 
    Abstract: To minimise the negative impact of the epidemic on education, online teaching was taking off all over the world. In order to improve the interactive effect of online teaching, some scholars have applied personal response systems (PRSs) during the online teaching process. However, there is few experimental studies to validate the effectiveness of PRSs, such as students performance and perceptions. In the paper, based on the quantitative and qualitative mixed analysis method, which is the best way to gain information of specific experience, 98 sophomores majoring in Applied Mathematics are sampled to test students academic performance and perception in online teaching using PRSs, e.g., UMU. Some conclusions can be drawn: 1) the experimental groups academic performance was higher than the control group; however, there was no significant difference between them; 2) majority of students have positive perceptions, such as learning motivation (LM), learning engagement (LE) and learning satisfaction (LS) towards PRSs. And there was no significant difference in gender perception. At last, the paper concluded the advantages, disadvantages and suggestions of PRSs used in online teaching. The limitation of research and the direction of future research are discussed.

    by Taotao Wang, Xiaoxuan Wu 
    Abstract: In order to overcome the problems of low classification accuracy, long time and high missing ratio of traditional methods, a big data classification method of learning behaviour based on data reduction and ensemble learning was proposed. By cleaning and transforming the big data of learning behaviour and discretising the attributes of big data of learning behaviour, the data reduction algorithm is used to simplify the attributes of big data of learning behaviour. The ensemble learning method is used to linearly combine several weak classifiers, and the ensemble classifier is trained according to Choquet integral. The trained classifier is used to classify the big data of learning behaviour after simplified processing. The experimental results show that when the amount of big data on learning behaviour reaches 5,000 GB, the average classification accuracy of the proposed method is 92%, the classification time is 29 s, and the failure rate of classification is 0.32%.

    by Juan Zhang, Pingyang Li, Xiaoli Sun 
    Abstract: Because the traditional data mining methods of English autonomous learning behaviour have the problems of low accuracy and long mining time, a decision tree-based data mining method of English autonomous learning behaviour is proposed. Firstly, the students’ learning behaviour data is collected, and then the collected behaviour data is classified by the decision tree method, and the data is divided into different types. Finally, according to the data classification results, the cart decision tree method is used to obtain the optimal split point of the decision tree through tree building and pruning operations, and the optimal binary tree is generated to realise the data mining of English autonomous learning behaviour. The experimental results show that the highest comprehensive coefficient of data mining of the research method in this paper is increased by 0.08 and 0.04 respectively, and the accuracy and efficiency of data mining are improved.

Secondly, a judgment matrix is constructed for the evaluation index system, and the weight of the index is determined according to the importance of the evaluation index. Finally, taking Cauchy function as membership function, the final evaluation result is obtained through fuzzy integration. The experimental results show that with the increase of the number of experiments, the precision of the evaluation results obtained by this method is always above 95%, and the maximum clustering accuracy of the teaching reform feature data can reach 97%.

The influencing factors are grouped by factor analysis method, and the determined influencing factors with high correlation are classified by cluster analysis. The discriminant function criterion is constructed by discriminant analysis, and the discrimination and evaluation of different influencing factors are realised. The experimental results show that the highest evaluation accuracy of the method in this paper reaches 97%, indicating that it effectively improves the accuracy of the evaluation and reduces the evaluation time.
