2.2 Interaction
Interaction refers to whether the teaching videos contain relative interactive functions designing for learners to watch and at the same time contact and communicate with organizers, promoters and peers. The data in Table 10 shows that the ratio of teachers who consider interaction to be very important or relatively important is 39.8%; the ratio of students is 49.8%. Both numbers are less than half of the total.
