Triay, J. F.; Minguillón, J.; Sancho, T. (2016)."Analyzing non-linear video usage in an introductory x-MOOC about basic linear algebra". A:LASI Spain 2016 International workshop. BILBAO 27 de Junio.
Abstract:
Massive data collection in MOOCs provides insight about real course participation. The main aim of this work is to explore how MOOC students consume videos, and whether they follow a specific viewing pattern according with the characteristics if each scene in the storyboard. Using heatmaps as a visual analytics tool, results suggest that most participants do not alter the linearity of time, but in a few hot spots. This knowledge can provide course teachers with insightful information on how to detect possible bottlenecks and to improve video internal structure.
