The students were asked to answer the questionnaire for term 132(traditional course) and 141 (blended). Besides, the performance of the students was analyzed to find the difference between the traditional group and the blended group. The results showed that the percentages of the scores of the blended group for the learning process of the all PE health education course contents were better than the traditional group.
