Abstract

With digital transformation of education in China, a growing number of local higher education teacher training institutions are creating small private online courses, or SPOC, based on course portals to precisely prepare excellent future teachers. However, few attempts have been made to explore the educational efficacy of this new media. To this end, this study investigates the efficacy of SPOC built on the Chaoxing platform course portal on the new media literacy of student teachers. This was a cross-sectional survey of a random sample of 160 future excellent rural Chinese teachers from Leshan Normal University in Southwest China. This study explored the efficacy of SPOC usage time on new media literacy through a relational model. A structured questionnaire was used as the data collection tool. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, ANOVA, ANOVA, and post hoc tests. The results of this study indicated that SPOC use duration had significant moderate efficacy on the overall new media literacy and its six sub-dimensions of collective intelligence, simulation, distributed cognition, judgment, appropriation, and visualization in addition to significant small efficacy on performance and large efficacy on the play sub-dimension. Thus, this study enriches knowledge about the efficacy of new media in teacher education and has implications for people to design and make more economical use of SPOC built on course portals.
