摘要:

随着信息科技的发展,数字教材成为教材的重要形态。然而,关于数字教材和纸质教材的使用,谁更有利于学生学习仍然存在争论。为此,本研究对来自36项实验与准实验研究进行元分析。结果显示,与纸质教材的使用相比较,数字教材更有利于学生获得好的学业成绩(g=0.218)。另外,在集体主义文化背景下,数字教材对学生学业成绩的提升作用影响更大;干预时长与数字教材对学生学业成绩的影响程度之间大致呈现出一个倒U形的关系,当干预时长在“12到24周”之间时,其影响效应最大;与其他学科相比,数字教材对学生社会学科学业成绩的正向影响作用最为明显;成绩类型也能够调节数字教材对学生学业成绩的影响,即对及时性更强的测试成绩影响更显著;数字教材对学生学业成绩的预测作用不受性别、学段、出版年份和实验类型的影响。数字化时代需要加强技术创新,为数字教材的教学使用提供更好的基础;提升教师的数字素养,更好支持数字教材的促学功能;依据数字教材促学的周期规律,创设活动促进学生学习;提升学生的数字素养,充分发挥数字教材对各科成绩的提升功能。

Abstract:

With the development of information technology, digital textbooks have become an important form of teaching materials. However, there is still a debate about which is more beneficial to students’ learning when using digital textbooks or paper textbooks. To this end, this study conducted a meta-analysis of 36 experimental and quasi-experimental studies. The results show that compared with the use of paper textbooks, digital textbooks are more conducive to students’ academic achievement (g=0.218). In addition, in the context of collectivism culture, digital textbooks have a greater impact on the improvement of students’ academic achievement; There is an inverted U-shaped relationship between the intervention duration and the impact of digital textbooks on students’ academic achievement. When the intervention duration is between 12 and 24 weeks, the effect is the largest. Compared with other subjects, digital textbooks have the most obvious positive effect on students’ social studies. Grade type can also regulate the impact of digital textbooks on students’ academic achievement, that is, the more timely test results have a more significant impact. The prediction effect of digital textbooks on students’ academic achievement is not affected by gender, grade, publication year and experiment type.The digital age needs to strengthen technological innovation to provide a better foundation for the teaching and use of digital textbooks, and improve teachers’ digital literacy and better support the learning promotion function of digital textbooks. Also, it's necessary to, based on the periodicity rule of digital textbook promoting learning, create activities to promote students’ learning, improve students’ digital literacy, and give full play to the function of digital textbooks to improve the learning outcomes.
