Augmenting Collaborative MOOC Video Viewing with Synchronized Textbook
نویسندگان
چکیده
We designed BOOC, an application that synchronizes textbook content with MOOC (Massive Open Online Courses) videos. The application leverages a tablet display split into two views to present lecture videos and textbook content simultaneously. The display of the book serves as peripheral contextual help for video viewing activities. A five-week user study with 6 groups of MOOC students in a blended on-campus course was conducted. Our study in this paper reports how textbooks are used in authentic MOOC study groups and further explores the effects of the book-mapping feature of the BOOC player in enhancing the collaborative MOOC learning experiences.

Gaze Analysis methods for Learning Analytics
Eye-tracking had been shown to be predictive of expertise, task-based success, task-difficulty, and the strategies involved in problem solving, both in the individual and collaborative settings. In learning analytics, eye-tracking could be used as a powerful tool, not only to differentiate between the levels of expertise and task-outcome, but also to give constructive feedback to the users. In ...
متن کاملMOOC Video Interaction Patterns: What Do They Tell Us?
For MOOC learners, lecture video viewing is the central learning activity. This paper reports a large-scale analysis of in-video interactions. We categorize the video behaviors into patterns by employing a clustering methodology, based on the available types of interactions, namely, pausing, forward and backward seeking and speed changing. We focus on how learners view MOOC videos with these in...
متن کاملWatching MOOCs Together: Investigating Co-located MOOC Study Groups
Current MOOCs emphasize offering individualistic learning experiences, and most MOOC research is centered on this context. Recent research also suggests that MOOC students may prefer to study in groups. Social facilitation within the study groups may render the learning of difficult concepts a pleasing experience. We report a longitudinal study that investigates how co-located study groups watc...
متن کاملP2P Video Synchronization in a Collaborative Virtual Environment
We previously developed a collaborative virtual environment (CVE) for small-group virtual classrooms, intended for distance learning by geographically dispersed students. The CVE employs a P2P approach to the frequent real-time updates to the 3D virtual worlds required by avatar movements (fellow students in the same room). This paper focuses on our extensions to support group viewing of lectur...
متن کاملConnecting: the Semantic HCI Textbook and Cross-Institutional Learning Analytics
Open education materials related to the author's HCI textbook were released in 2013 as a MOOC, published on interactiondesign.org, and used for flipped classroom teaching. Work is in progress to link these free open educational resources including substantial video and quizzes (some tutor-only) together with the (paid-for but open-to-all) book, to create a 'semantic textbook'. The author is als...
