Abstract:

We analyze the problems of computer basic course teaching in universities, and adopt flipped classroom approach via MOOCs  to inspire active learning. Class performance proves that the flipped classroom is more efficient than traditional approaches, which accomplishes a better transfer from teachercentered model to studentcentered model. There are challenges for military colleges to apply MOOCs to largescale teaching, but onlineteaching and MOOCs can help in a promising way.

Key words: MOOC, computer basic course teaching in university, flipped classroom, active learning
