Abstract
Objective: To investigate the application effects of the Presentation-Assimilation-Discussion (PAD) teaching model in the General Psychology course. Methods: A total of 110 students from 2 freshman classes of primary education major in a university were selected as the research objects. The experimental group was taught in the PAD teaching model. The learning attitude questionnaire was used before and after the experiment, and data were processed and analyzed using SPSS 24.0. Results: Before the experiment, there were no significant differences in cognitive level, emotional experience, and behavioral tendencies related to learning attitude between the experimental and control groups (P > 0.05). However, after the experiment, significant differences were observed in cognitive level, emotional experience, behavioral tendencies, and exam scores between the two groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The PAD teaching model significantly enhances students' learning attitudes and improves their academic performance.
