This research investigated the Development of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in Cloud Education Model to Enhance the Application Ability and Computational Thinking Undergraduate Students with the core objectives, to study the needs of students and teachers towards the teaching approach based on Project-Based Learning (PBL) in Cloud Education in Word Software Application, to design Project-Based Learning (PBL) in Cloud Education model 3, and to compare Word Software Application ability and computational thinking between students who learn in Project-Based Learning (PBL) in Cloud Education model and students who learn in Traditional Teaching Method. Qualitative and Quantitative both methods were used in the current study. As the research population, from a pool of 165 students, a total of 100 students majoring in accounting from the 2022 cohort of Nanning University was randomly selected along with five lecturers from the "College Computer Foundation" course. Questionnaire was used for collecting data from students while a focus group interview was adopted for collecting in-depth data from focus group teachers. The result of study brought to surface that students expect a classroom atmosphere with higher participation, more active classroom, and stronger interactivity thereby promoting course learning and achieving course goals. The revised teaching model emphasizes active learning, practical application, and the cultivation of computational thinking, aiming to provide a richer and more effective educational experience. The revision process involves multiple steps such as project design, group task allocation, plan formulation, exploration and cooperation, work production, achievement exchange, summary and evaluation, and the use of cloud education platforms to support teaching and learning activities. This process fully reflects the importance of continuously optimizing and improving educational models to adapt to the constantly changing learning environment and needs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
