Abstract

The aim of this study is to stimulate students' situational interest in order to help them become subjects with completely independent individual interests. Based on this aim and the resources on the international teaching platform, SAKAI, we construct the small private online pharmacology course and collect the online data related to overseas students’ learning behavior. We find that emphasizing the value and repeatedly stimulate students’ situational interests can help them become subjects with completely independent individual interests. Studies of ‘interests’ have shown that the most important influencing factors are individual interests, subject interests, and situational interests, are learning materials and background knowledge. In conclusion, the reform of teaching methods should be student-centered and learning process-guiding can help them with their construction of learning initiatives.
