Construction of Bilingual Teaching Mode Based on Digital Twinning Technology

Area of Science:

• Educational Technology
• Digital Learning Environments
• Bilingual Education

Background:

• The digital age necessitates fundamental changes in designers' education and bilingual teaching.
• Traditional bilingual education models face challenges from digitalization, requiring updates to concepts and methods.
• Digital twin technology offers a solution to bridge real and virtual teaching spaces, promoting online learning.

Purpose of the Study:

• To investigate the impact of digital twin technology on bilingual education.
• To compare the effectiveness of digital twin-based experimental teaching with traditional methods.
• To analyze potential differences in learning outcomes between genders in this digital environment.

Main Methods:

• Implementation of a digital twin platform connecting physical and virtual teaching spaces.
• Comparative experimental analysis of teaching effects between digital and control classes.
• Independent sample t-test to evaluate statistical significance of observed differences.

Main Results:

• The digital twin technology experimental teaching group showed higher results for both boys and girls compared to the control group.
• A significant difference was found between boys and girls in the digital twin technology experimental teaching class (t-statistic = 3.634, p = 0.013).
• The application of digital twin technology in bilingual teaching demonstrated positive effects on student performance.

Conclusions:

• Digital twin technology is a viable and effective approach for transforming traditional bilingual education into digital bilingual education.
• This technology enhances learning outcomes and addresses the evolving demands of designers' education in the digital era.
• Further research can explore gender-specific pedagogical strategies within digital twin-enhanced bilingual classrooms.
