A Study of Developing a System Dynamics Model for the Learning Effectiveness Evaluation

Abstract EN

This study used the research method of system dynamics and applied the Vensim software to develop a learning effectiveness evaluation model.

This study developed four cause-and-effect chains affecting learning effectiveness, including teachers’ teaching enthusiasm, family involvement, school’s implementation of scientific activities, and creative teaching method, as well as the system dynamics model based on the four cause-and-effect chains.

Based on the developed system dynamic model, this study performed simulation to investigate the relationship among family involvement, learning effectiveness, teaching achievement, creative teaching method, and students’ learning interest.

The results of this study verified that there are positive correlations between family involvement and students’ learning effectiveness, as well as students’ learning effectiveness and teachers’ teaching achievements.

The results also indicated that the use of creative teaching method is able to increase students’ learning interest and learning achievement.
