Using the ADDIE Model to Develop English Listening Online Course

Abstract

This project aims to improve students’ listening ability by an online English listening course to learning independently after class. The English songs learning course was made by WIX based on the ADDIE model. When mainland children start to listen English, they may feel intimidated, nervous, and scared, which can hinder students’ further learning. If English songs are used to teach, students can learn while having fun. However, there is a lack of systematic teaching method of how to use songs. Simple utilization in the classroom makes it difficult to achieve the expected results. Data collections by giving online questionnaire in this project were six students of Grade 3rd in Mainland China. This study reveals the students’ evaluation of this online listening course, as well as the problems they encountered and suggestions for improvement of the course and website.
