Along with the constant development of the modern education informationization, online learning.as a useful complement to traditional learning, is becoming an important means to promote the modernization of education. There is no doubt that its unrivalled nature such as Intelligence reciprocity, openness, and real virtuality.which are proving to be an important link to the informatization process in the college education, which has been widely popularized and gotten rapid development in recent years.However, when it comes to the participation in the online learning, there always exists staggered worries about students'low participation. For example:students' sluggish performance, being passive in asking for help, small scope of interaction,being careless about study results during in the course of Online learning, which are considered as the low participation in online learning. Therefore, it's worthy of designing effective strategies to increase students' online participation.On the basis of theoretical research, this dissertation takes observations, interviews as well as questionnaires research, participation in the online learning is divided into two parts which are defined the surface participation and deep participation, refers to students' cognitive, emotion, behavior performance and the level of contributions and sharing.And these two kinds of participation in online learning have been specifically analysised when acquiring information,interacting information, applicating information and generating new information, feedback information and evaluating information. Two study cases(Ucenter home and Moodle platform used in online learning) as well as questionnaire research are supposed to clarify the factors that influence students' online participation, including:the internal factors (self-efficacy, cognitive strategies, study introspection, regulatory capacity), and the external factors (online learning support,teaching strategies, online community, online evaluation mechanism and incentive system).Based on the impact factor mentioned above, this dissertation revisit online teaching resources, teachers and students, with regard to their roles played in ecological online learning environment. With ecological standpoint, in the light of three elements described, we propose to design strategies for increasing students' online learning participation. The online resources and teachers are the external factor; the strategy lies in students themselves is supposed to be the internal factor, comprise of three parts, learning cognition(online learning strategy),learning emotion (emotion and physical condition), learning performance(effective and migration)which are elaborated in each part.This article explores strategies for promoting students'participation in blend-learning, in order to enrich the online learning theory and perhaps its most magnificent sense is providing an effective way and enforceable strategy for dredging students'deeper participation in online learning.
