What is the Level of Development of Digital Educational Resources?:Evidence Response Based on the Resources of National Smart Education Platform for Primary and Secondary Schools
Digital educational resources are the foundation of building a new ecosystem of high-quality smart education.At the policy and research level,digital educational resources are highly valued for their allocation,sharing,application,and evaluation.However,there is no research that systematically responds to the core issue of"what is the level of development of digital educational resources in China"from a practical perspective.In view of this,this study summarizes the connotation and key elements of digital educational resources,constructs an evaluation framework for the development level of digital educational resources,and proposes to evaluate the development level of digital educational resources in China from the aspects of digital resources allocation,digital resources sharing,digital resources application,and digital resources evaluation.At the quantitative level,the study takes the National Smart Education Platform for Primary and Secondary Schools as the evaluation object,objectively examines the comprehensive level and differential performance of digital educational resources development represented by this platform,and proposes targeted and operable digital resources construction directions based on this.The study finds that:(1)In terms of resources allocation:themes focus on curriculum teaching.The number of resources in the primary school stage accounts for the largest proportion,with Mathematics and English as the main subject resources.Yunnan Province,Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region,Hunan Province,Shandong Province and Shanxi Province ranking among the top five in terms of resources allocation.(2)In terms of resource sharing:the resource sharing version is mainly English and Mathematics disciplines.The peak time of resources sharing is 2019,and the resources shared space presents the appearance of eastern region＞western region＞central region＞northeast region.(3)In terms of resources application:the primary school stage has the highest level of resources application.The main disciplines of resources application are Chinese,Mathematics and English.The resources application level of Hunan Province,Yunnan Province and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region ranks in the top three.(4)In terms of resources evaluation:the primary school stage having the highest proportion of resources evaluation personnel,and Mathematics,Chinese,English,Physics and Political disciplines ranking among the top five in terms of likes.At the qualitative level,the research focuses on the feedback content of users on digital education resources,and analyzes the current level of development of digital educational resources.The results indicate that the current focus of resources content construction is on standardized digital resources;Lack of typical application scenarios for resources,making it difficult to deepen their use;There is an urgent need to establish a platform system for data connectivity.Based on the quantitative evaluation results and qualitative content analysis,the core issue of promoting the high-quality development of digital educational resources in China is proposed:construct a digital educational resources development mechanism with coupling and linkage of various elements;Create a digital educational resources development model with collaborative participation of multiple entities;Build a multi-level intelligent education platform system with interconnectivity.
