Abstract/Summary:
As China’s aging degree deepens year by year,the supporting services for the elderly groups should also be improved.Education for the elderly,as an activity chosen by the elderly in China,is beneficial to the body and mind and realizes self-worth,and it has also received the attention of the government.Education for the elderly has also developed into universities for the elderly,community education for the elderly and distance education,but at present there are still some educational models that are not advanced.Insufficient investment of government funds and backward supporting facilities;The development of different regions is unbalanced,and the allocation of teaching resources cannot be realized by individuals;There is a large gap of professionals and uneven educational level.The online learning mode has developed maturely in the field of youth education,and is gradually applied to the education of the elderly,with a large market space.The theory of flow studies positive emotional experience,which helps the elderly to develop their self-learning potential,stimulate their learning motivation,enjoy the learning process and enhance their user experience.Therefore,this study selects photography,which is loved by the elderly,as the learning content,takes the experience and effect of learning photography for the elderly as the goal,and introduces the flow theory to guide the design and research of online photography learning tools for the elderly.Firstly,this paper studies the physiological and psychological characteristics,learning characteristics and flow theory of the elderly,and determines the feasibility of applying flow theory to the education of the elderly.Secondly,through user research,we can deeply understand the characteristics,needs and pain points of the elderly in the process of learning photography.Thirdly,according to the user’s research,this paper explores the factors of flow experience of the elderly in the process of photography learning,and combines PAT model of flow experience and APEC model of user experience to construct the design model and corresponding design strategy of online photography learning tools for the elderly,and puts forward the learning form of interactive video.Then,the design model and design strategy are used to guide the design of the online photography learning tool product "Le Pai App" for the elderly.Finally,it is verified by experiments that the elderly are satisfied with online photography learning tools,that the learning form of interactive video is helpful to stimulate the flow experience,and that the flow experience is positively related to the learning effect.
