Paper Abstract:
|
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the introduction of online courses in higher education worldwide, including online
video courses. In a video course, it is difficult to predict which students cannot follow a course that provides unfamiliar
knowledge. Therefore, this pilot study investigated the relationship between learning performance of unfamiliar
knowledge and Japanese vocabulary ability. A total of 59 college students participated in this pilot study. After their
Japanese proficiency levels were measured by their grammatical and vocabulary abilities, they took a video course about
the "Structure of Brain" (as an unfamiliar topic). The students took a short pre- and post-lecture knowledge test. The
results of this study revealed that students with a high level of Japanese vocabulary ability showed higher learning
performance for unfamiliar knowledge delivered via the video lecture. This pilot study contributes to predicting students'
online learning performance based on student properties. |
