Digital education and dynamic assessment of tongue diagnosis based on Mashup technique

To assess the digital education and dynamic assessment of tongue diagnosis based on Mashup technique (DEDATD) according to specifific user's answering pattern, and provide pertinent information tailored to user's specifific needs supplemented by the teaching materials constantly updated through the Mashup technique.

Fifty-four undergraduate students were tested with DEDATD developed. The effificacy of the DEDATD was evaluated based on the pre- and post-test performance, with interleaving training sessions targeting on the weakness of the student under test.

The t-test demonstrated that signifificant difference was reached in scores gained during pre- and post-test sessions, and positive correlation between scores gained and length of time spent on learning, while no signifificant differences between the gender and post-test score, and the years of students in school and the progress in score gained.

DEDATD, coupled with Mashup technique, could provide updated materials fifiltered through diverse sources located across the network. The dynamic assessment could tailor each individual learner's needs to offer custom-made learning materials. DEDATD poses as a great improvement over the traditional teaching methods.
