A Study on the Impact of SPOC-FCM Teaching Model on Student LearningEngagement and Academic Performance in University Biochemistry Courses

Author : Jiang Yunyao

Abstract : Introduction: With the rapid advancement of information technology and the continuous evolution of educational philosophies, blended learning has emerged as a significant trend in higher education reform. SPOCs, leveraging flexible scheduling and personalized learning support, have become a vital tool for enhancing student initiative and engagement. As educational technology progresses, the f lipped classroom model is also increasingly becoming a key direction in higher education curriculum reform. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design with veterinary medicine students from a university in Jilin, China as participants. It evaluated whether SPOCFCM significantly enhances student engagement and academic performance in biochemistry courses.The experimental group employed the SPOC-FCM teaching approach, while the control group utilized traditional teaching methods.Data were analyzed using SPSS 27.0. Results: (1) The SPOC-FCM teaching method significantly enhances learning engagement among students in the experimental group (P < 0.01). (2) The SPOC-FCM teaching method significantly improved the academic performance of students in the experimental group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The SPOC-FCM teaching model, when applied to a biochemistry course at a university in Jilin Province, significantly enhances student engagement and markedly improves academic performance compared to traditional teaching methods.
