Abstract :
Because there are many dimensions to pedagogical work, it is best to apply multiple methods to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching methods and other correlative instructional activities. Most current approaches of effectiveness evaluation could not give appropriate graphics or quantitative indicators which can provide intuitive explanation. A time series analysis based effectiveness evaluation method is proposed in this paper. This new approach can provide a visual and statistics way to describe the intrinsic correlation of the data series and help to make effectiveness evaluation effectively.
