Integrating Information Technology into “Narrative” Teaching of Language Domain in Elementary School –the Comparison of Effectiveness between Group and Individual Instruction Models

[[abstract]]Abstract This research studied the 6th grade students in elementary school. Information technology was integrated into narrative teaching of language domain. Digital curriculum was designed, and adaptive tests based on knowledge structure and Bayesian networks was adopted in order to diagnose the error types in students’ learning and to compare the effectiveness between group and individual instruction models. This study aimed to categorize Chinese language teaching by style, develop digital learning curriculum, carry out individual instruction of reading and writing, enhance the efficiency of the tests, and employ remedial instruction effectively. The findings of this research include the followings: 1. The learning outcomes of individual instruction model are significantly much better than the traditional group instruction model. 2. The adaptive tests combining knowledge structure and Bayesian networks averagely save 33% of the pen-and-paper test items, and improve the efficiency as well
