Abstract

The outbreak of the COVID-19 has provided new challenges and also opportunities for the development of online education. Based on our experience from the online education after the outbreak of the COVID-19, this article proposes to introduce COVID-19 knowledge through film teaching methods. Films can stimulate students' interest in learning and improve the teaching efficiency of online education with its rich storylines, high-quality pictures, interesting, and entertaining nature. Teachers can carry out online teaching with the aid of films through four key steps: determining the key points of the teaching content, choosing matching films, setting up topic-related questions, and communicating and discussing after watching the film.

Keywords: COVID-19; film teaching; online education.
