Evaluation of Teaching Effectiveness of Blended Learning Ecosystem under the Concept of OBE: An Example of Logistics Information Technology

This study evaluated the effectiveness of a blended ecological learning system designed for the Logistics Information Technology (LIT) course under the Outcomes-Based Education (OBE) framework. The study compared the blended learning ecosystem with traditional multimedia teaching methods in terms of learning outcomes, emotional experiences, and achievement of educational goals. The results showed that (1) students in the blended learning ecosystem outperformed those in the traditional multimedia teaching group in learning outcomes. Analysis revealed no significant differences between groups before the experiment but significant advantages for the experimental group after the experiment. A positive correlation was observed between knowledge transmission, internalization, and application, indicating a virtuous cycle facilitated by the blended ecosystem's design. (2) Students in the blended learning ecosystem also reported more positive emotional experiences, especially in dimensions such as collaborative learning, knowledge construction, and autonomous learning. These findings suggested that the blended ecosystem's focus on systematic teaching environments and interactive processes contributed to a harmonious and enjoyable learning atmosphere. (3) The blended learning ecosystem led to higher achievement of educational goals, including knowledge, skills, and competencies, compared to traditional multimedia teaching. This was achieved through a restructured educational model that fostered rich interactions among students and between students and instructors, supported by multiple learning tasks and platforms. These results indicated that the blended ecological learning system effectively enhances students' learning experiences and outcomes, promotes positive emotional engagement, and achieves higher levels of educational goal attainment.
