Abstract

Online teaching has become an important form of regular teaching in higher education institutions, and teachers’ input in online teaching is directly related to the quality of online teaching. A K-means cluster analysis of teachers’ teaching behaviours in the online teaching platform of Sanya Aviation and Tourism College and a comparison of the mean values of each semester’s behaviours reveal that teachers’ overall online teaching input is insufficient and their online teaching behaviours need to be optimized; their teaching energy has improved and their online teaching resources are more completed; their teaching emotional input is seriously lacking and their online interaction needs to be strengthened. To address these problems, the following measures can be taken: improve teachers’ incentives to increase the overall investment in online teaching; change teachers’ roles to strengthen the emotional investment in online teaching; and strengthen teachers’ training to enhance online teaching design skills.
