An E-Class Teaching Management System (ECTMS): Strategy and Application

This paper presents an e-class teaching management system (ECTMS), which is a software supporting the synchronization of classroom teaching and learning activities. The system looks upon a class as a sequence of e-teaching-events. By controlling the operation of the e-teaching-events, the teacher monitors and manages the process of teaching. This paper describes the design strategy, architecture and typical application mode of ECTMS, and then provides a case study of applying this system in a real-world classroom. The survey results show that the teacher is satisfied with the concepts of ECTMS and agrees with that ECTMS has many advantages for the classes in which there are many exercises and curriculum evaluation processes.
