Abstract: With the rapid development of the internet and information technology, online and offline blended learning has been widely used. Blended learning is a student-centered strategy that focuses on learners’ abilities of self-regulated learning, collaborative learning and personalized learning and has become a creative learning model for higher education. However, the ability to process, sort, and integrate knowledge that students currently demonstrate under such model is obviously far from sufficient, so is their skill to establish a complete knowledge system. As a result, more guidance from the instructors is urgently needed. The current paper analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of blended learning and introduces the concept of knowledge graph in the field of artificial intelligence as a new element to strengthen the self-regulated learning of students, thereby constructing an enhanced blended learning pedagogy based on knowledge graph. This pedagogy was put into practice in the course of Invertebrate Paleontology at Nanjing University in 2020, which has further demonstrated its potential in improving students’ ability of self-regulated learning.
