What is League of Legends?

League of Legends(LOL) is a 5v5 Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) game developed and released by riot games. The game is conducted in a free mode and provides paid props services.

In League of Legends, players play an invisible Summoner and control “champs” with unique abilities to fight against champs controlled by other players. The general goal of the game is to destroy enemy’s main base “crystal hub”. Champs are weak at the beginning of each game. They will upgrade as the game progresses. But these values will be reset when the next game starts again.

How can we get help?

congratulate! You have completed the beginner’s Guide of hero alliance. Now you should have a preliminary understanding of the game. If you still have questions or want to know more information about hero alliance, just watch the following video.

How theories were implemented?

Firstly, we use multimedia teaching tools such as screenshots, videos and PPT to provide students with a multimedia learning environment. Then we try to simplify the content and show it in the form of key points, and abide by the principle of redundancy.  In the teaching order, we first easy and then difficult. From the simplest to how to win the final victory, the course is gradual and in line with the order of exposition.

Blog#9 Assessment

Assessment is a very important part in education. It can let teachers know whether students master important knowledge, and help students improve their skills and understanding.

In terms of types, assessment can be divided into formative assessment and summative assessment.

Formative assessment generally evaluates students during the learning process and provides feedback on their current learning progress. This assessment is generally not graded.

Summative assessment is always conducted after the course. This assessment has strict standards, and teachers will score students according to these standards.

From my point of view, I think both assessments are important and useful. Formative assessment can better improve students’ ability and teachers can provide help in time. Summative assessment can make students have a certain sense of tension to ensure that their usual learning will not be lax. How to reasonably combine the two assessments is what educators should think about.

If you want to better understand the differences between the two assessments, the following video may help.

Blog#8 Principles of Learning and Augmented Reality

Where do you see AR in future classrooms?

Augmented Reality(AR) technology is a technology that skillfully integrates virtual information with the real world. It widely uses a variety of technical means such as multimedia, 3D modeling, real-time tracking and registration, intelligent interaction and sensing to simulate and apply the computer-generated virtual information such as text, image, 3D model, music and video to the real world, The two kinds of information complement each other, so as to realize the “enhancement” of the real world.

At today’s stage, AR has not been promoted in education because of the expensive equipment. Now only a few games use this technology and have won unanimous praise.But in my opinion, the high cost can not stop the rise of AR in education in the future, because its benefits far outweigh equipment investment. For example, under the influence of COVID-19 today, although Uvic has opened some online courses, many experimental courses can not be carried out through the Internet. Students have no access to equipment, so it is impossible for them to know how to use them. However, with AR technology, we can directly see the three-dimensional structure of experimental equipment at home, and even do labs with these projections.

In addition, when students see a globe or geographical drawing in geography class, plane description can not let students fully understand various geological structures. But imagine that after wearing AR equipment, students can observe three-dimensional terrain at a close distance, which is undoubtedly a great improvement in the quality of learning.

In general, although AR is not yet popular, because it can bring great changes to education, AR will be applied in various courses in the future.

Maybe this TED presentation can help you understand how AR will change the education.
