Abstract :
Human activities are always driven by events. Event-driven learning refers to learning taking place during the preparation process of the event, not necessarily during the participation process of the event. In the study, the authors extend the previous research "EduClick" and design the learning model of the event-driven learning. They process a competition using EduClick to drive the students\´ learning interests. Students can do goal setting, learn actively by themselves during the preparing period, and then accumulate enough strength to participate the competition event. They hold an across-classroom competition event, and hope students\´ learning motivation can be driven by the event.
