ABSTRACT
Nowadays, the Internet technology is increasingly developed and popularized among the broad masses of people, and the relationship between people's life and the network is getting closer and closer. With the development of webcast and video technology and the increase of social pressure, “companionship learning video”, which combines learning with live streaming, has become a popular new way of learning among contemporary young people, especially college students, since it first appeared on YouTube in 2018. Students only need to turn on the electronic equipment, enter the corresponding live room or watch relevant videos to enhance the learning experience, gain emotional resonance, and improve learning efficiency. This paper first investigates whether college students watch companionship learning video, and the length, frequency and type of watching, as well as their learning motivation. Then the present study uses the means of analysis of variance to objectively explore whether watching companionship learning videos can enhance learning motivation. It is found that the increase in the frequency of watching companionship videos during the test preparation period and watching companionship learning videos can improve college students’ learning motivation, but the frequency does not affect their learning motivation. The relevant summary and prospect are put forward.
