Abstract

Online higher education has become a steadily more popular way of learning for university students in the post-pandemic era. It has been emphasized that active learning and interactive communication are key factors in achieving effective performance in online learning. However, due to the lack of learning motivation of students and the lack of feedback data in online learning, there are numerous problems, such as the weak self-discipline of students, unsatisfactory learning experience, a high plagiarism rate of homework, and the low utilization of online teaching resources. In this study, an online homework intelligent platform implemented by information technology (IT) was proposed. It was based on the pedagogical self-regulated learning (SRL) strategy as a theoretical foundation, and information technology as a driver. Through setting online homework assignments, a sustainable means of promoting the four components of the SRL strategy, i.e., self-disciplinary control, independent thinking, reflective learning, and interest development, can be provided to university students. Therefore, this study explained the “4A” functions in the platform and analysed the details of their implementation and value, such as assistance in locating resources, assignment of differentiated homework, assessment of warning learning, and achievement of sharing. After three years of continuous improvements since COVID-19, this online platform has been successfully applied to students and teachers at our university and other pilot universities. A comparison of student teaching data, questionnaire responses and teacher interviews from the Computer Composition Principles course illustrated the sustainability as well as the effectiveness of the method.
