Recent research on video data analytics by TSYS Endowed Chair in
Cybersecurity Paul Wang and his
colleague William Kelly of Metonymy Labs may lead to a revolution in online
learning by increasing interactions between students and online learning
systems. The system, known as inVideo,
transforms linear videos into interactive learning objects without the need for
initial viewing by a human. As they
explain in their recent publication in the Journal
of Learning Analytics, inVideo uses an indexing engine that is capable of
analyzing language and video frames, while its time-stamped commenting and
tagging properties facilitate more meaningful interactions for students. The early evidence, gathered from use in the
cybersecurity program at the University of Maryland, indicates the inVideo is
an adaptive assessment tool that boosts both student-to-student and
student-to-faculty interactions in the online learning environment.
