Research: How Video Production Affects Student Engagement

edX recently commissioned a study of nearly 1,000 videos, segmenting them out by by video type and production style, and discovered this among their other findings:

  1. Shorter videos are more engaging. Engagement drops after 6 minutes.
  2. Videos with a more personal feeling are more effective than high-fidelity studio recordings.
  3. Videos in which the instructor speaks quickly and with high enthusiasm are more engaging.
  4. Khan-style tablet drawings are more engaging than power point slides.
Rosemary Tyrrell, Ed.D.'s curator insight, September 4, 2014 4:23 PM

An interesting study from the EdX people on using videos in an online course.

MOOC completion rates

Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) have the potential to enable free university-level education on an enormous scale. A concern often raised about MOOCs is that although thousands enrol for courses, a very small proportion actually complete the course. The release of information about enrollment and completion rates from MOOCs appears to be ad hoc at the moment - that is, official statistics are not published for every course. This data visualisation draws together information about enrollment numbers and completion rates from across online news stories and blogs.

Special edition on research on MOOCs in the journal ‘Distance Education’ | Aprendiendo a Distancia | Scoop.it

Tony Bates:

 

"The August 2014 edition of the Australian-based journal, Distance Education (Vol.35, No. 2.), is devoted to new research on MOOCs. There is a guest editor, Kemi Jona, from Northwestern University, Illinois, as well as the regular editor, Som Naidu.
The six articles in this edition are fascinating, both in terms of their content, but even more so in their diversity. There are also three commentaries, by Jon Baggaley, Gerhard Fischer and myself."

Une présentation de Stephen Downes (l'un des co-papa des C-MooC). Ce qui domine dans cet état de l'art c'est la notion d'écosystème et de réseau. Un Mooc est une forme de web, pas un site. Pour supporter ce principe, le développement de l'environnement d'apprentissage personnel est plus que jamais au centre des  futurs enjeux.

An Experimental “Meta-MOOC” Shaping the Future of Higher Education

An Experimental “Meta-MOOC” Shaping the Future of Higher Education | Aprendiendo a Distancia | Scoop.it

When Professor Cathy Davidson of Duke University agreed to teach a Coursera course on the “History and Future of (Mostly) Higher Education,” which will launch on January 27, 2014, she was determined to see how the course itself could help others to think about the many forms and functions of higher education in the 21st century. Co-founder of the 12,000+ member network HASTAC (hastac.org), an open community dedicated to innovations in learning, Professor Davidson sent a notice around to other network members to see if others might be interested in exploring the same topic in a variety of ways. More than thirty different universities and institutions in North America and internationally responded, offering courses, webinars, hangouts, and conferences on the topic. Along with the participants in Professor Davidson’s Coursera MOOC, they will also be making their research publicly available through a number of collaborative, crowdsourced tools on the hastac.org site, including a wiki of learning resources, pedagogical innovations, and successful institutional changes worldwide.
