Summary: | The study delves into the online teaching practice that uses “Rain
Classroom” for the school-based curriculum of college English and
explored whether such a teaching mode can arouse students’ interests in
learning, and enhance their learning effect and satisfaction by means of a
questionnaire survey and semi-structured interviews to collect feedback
from students of art or physical education majors on the effectiveness of
Rain Classroom-based teaching for quantitative and qualitative analysis.
The collected data indicates that this teaching mode was greatly accepted
by these students, who showed strong interests in learning, but as they
were not disciplined much in their studies, their learning effect was not
significant. Therefore, this paper concluded therefore that we should
integrate such smart teaching modes as Rain Classroom with traditional
classroom teaching styles to tap the benefits of blended learning which
features the combination of information technology (IT) with foreign
language teaching
