The first semester uses blending learning. According to the completion rate of students on the UMU platform, they are divided into high completion rate group, medium completion rate group and low completion rate group. Offline teaching is used in the second semester. After that, the two semester academic performances of the three groups of students were longitudinally compared to evaluate the implementation effect. The results found that the implementation of online and offline blended teaching has a greater impact on students with good and excellent grades, while it has a greater stimulating effect on some students with medium grades, and has little effect on students with poor academic performance. Conclusion: Blended teaching based on the UMU platform is conducive to promoting in-depth study of students with excellent and intermediate academic performance and obtaining better teaching results.
