Abstract-The paper describes a novel social network-based open educational resource for practicing foreign languages with native speakers, based on the predefined teaching materials. This virtual learning platform, called i2istudy, eliminates misunderstanding by providing prepared and predefined scenarios, enabling the participants to understand each other and, as a consequence, to communicate freely. The developed system allows communication through the real time video and audio feed. In addition to establishing the communication link, it tracks the student progress and allows rating the instructor, based on the learner's experience. The system went live in April 2014, and had over six thousand active daily users, with over 40,000 total registered users. Monetization has been added to the system, and time will show how popular the system will become in the future.

“…The online teaching platform "contains all the necessary teaching materials." [6]On the other hand, new flipped classroom design and application must rely on well-functioning and powerful online teaching platform as well. Thus, researchers fully take advantages of the current international education relatively new and relatively mature online educational resources and learning interface and specifically apply to the second time "History of Modern Design" course teaching (There are 35 in this cohort of students.)…”

Abstract-Design major students of Chinese universities and colleges exists a common learning concept on emphasizing the practice but contempt of theory. Students' interest in learning theoretical courses, especially design history courses is more diluted. In order to explorative change such phenomenon, researchers conducted a "History of Modern Design" course teaching of Sinoforeign cooperative education program as a pilot reform, drawing the current international hot network teaching resources and methods, innovatively constructing multivariate course online teaching platform, and combined with the flipped classroom teaching model which was vigorously advocated by the Chinese educational department. Empirical research and practice results show virtual course and online teaching and learning space. Application of flipped classroom teaching mode changed boring theory taught into exciting interactive teaching and learning. It not only trained independence of students' thinking, learning autonomy and the ability to explore knowledge, it also highly pushed students to innovatively apply design history theory. The course innovative reform achieved significant results. It was proved that can widely spread and apply in design history courses teaching of art and design majors of Chinese universities and colleges in the future.

“…The online e-learning platform i2istudy, which grew to over 40,000 users, was used to conduct reported experiments and measure corresponding parameters [7,8]. A basic idea of the i2istudy system is that instead of studying grammar, students have live interaction with foreigners to improve their oral communication skills.…”
