Abstract

The Covid-19 epidemic promotes the rapid development of online education. Experience design course is a course that combines theory with practice. However, the efficiency of knowledge transfer is very low for simple online education. The course is set up to study whether the teaching method of a dual-end-tutor online and offline blended teaching can improve the learning effect of students in terms of across-time-zones situation. Through the course case study on the stage results and final results of the whole course, it is found that compared with the traditional online or offline teaching methods, the online and offline dual-end-tutor blended teaching method makes great improvement on students’ satisfaction, knowledge mastery and result output. Therefore, in the post-epidemic era, the online and offline dual-end-tutor blended teaching method will become an important and efficient design method for user experience courses and other courses in the future.
