Abstract

Online educational videos are increasingly used by a great number of educators. Besides the typical linear, non-interactive videos, educational videos today can contain other features such as interactivity and quizzes. This paper provides a framework for recording, monitoring and analyzing learner activity behavior while watching or interacting with online educational videos. More specifically it proposes: (a) a software specific methodology for capturing learner activity data, (b) a data model for storing the activity data, and, (c) modules to monitor and visualize learner viewing behavior.
