  • Abstract
    In order to solve such problems in undergraduate tutorial system now in China as low teacher-student ratio, less excellent tutor resources, and the fewer chances for students to have a face-to-face discussion with their tutors, the researchers of this paper designed and developed an Object-oriented Virtual Tutor System, by using Moodle (originally an acronym for Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment) as bottom platform, and put it into practical application with sound effect. For students, this model provides a set of tools to help them construct a learning environment that meets their own needs; while for teachers, it enable them to freely and easily arrange time to accomplish effective instructions and guidance in online virtual space.
