Abstract

Bibtex
Absract. This paper proposes a graph-based approach to determine the importance of each media in a multimedia document by expanding the traditional four-dimensional model with a dimension that captures the rhetorical relations between different media types. The proposed approach utilizes an algorithm to weight the media types based on their significance. The use of rhetorical structure theory enables the determination of the significance of each media type, making it useful for document adaptation, automatic composition, and automatic generation of summaries. The approach utilizes an extended orbits-based rhetorical structure that is a novel method for determining the importance of media types in multimedia documents. The proposed approach is effective in capturing the importance of each media type and can be utilized in a wide range of applications, making it a potential solution to the limitations of the traditional model. This research has implications for a range of applications, including document adaptation, automatic composition, and automatic generation of summaries.

Abstract
Bibtex
Absract. Learning Analytics Dashboards (LAD) deserve increasing attention, yet their adoption remains limited. Designing effective LAD is a difficult process, and LADs often fail in turning insights into action. We argue that providing explicit decision-making features in a participatory design process may help to develop LADs supporting action. We first examine how the decision-making process is reflected on LADs. Second, we review the literature to identify major design space dimensions and examine how to include decision-making features. Secondly, we propose the DEFLAD design framework to synthesise this review which provides explicit decision-making features in three dimensions: Goal expression as a situation awareness level, Visualisation and related Interactions, as support of decision-making process. Third, we consider how this framework is involved through every stage of a Human-Centred Design (HCD) process to express and manage such features. The main contribution of this paper is to provide a framework integrating the decision-making features in a participatory design process of LADs.
Furthermore, we demonstrate the implementation of our proposals through the development of a card-based toolkit to assist in the ideation phase of participatory design, and present feedback from participants of a workshop utilizing this tool as a proof of concept.

Abstract
Bibtex
Fulltext
Absract. In this paper, we propose a set of rhetorical relations to support applications such as automatic summary generation and content adaptation of a multimedia document. These relations have been proposed in the context of an educational environment. These rhetorical relations are integrated and handled as part of the logical dimension of the multimedia document. The proposal of these relations is motivated by the need to take into account the particularities inherent to: (1) the composition, editing and presentation of a multimedia document and (2) the educational context. Indeed, multimedia documents in an educational context are very different from textual documents, for which automatic analysis and generation have led to the proposal of a set of commonly used rhetorical relations, as described in the work of Mann and Thompson. The study of this now more common context allowed us to go beyond the body of existing work to develop a more appropriate set of rhetorical relationships related to educational multimedia documents.

Abstract

Absract. Un document multimédia intègre des entités de base de nature statique (texte, images, graphiques et tableaux) et de nature dynamique (vidéo, sons et animations), qui suivent une certaine organisation temporelle et spatiale. De nos jours, ces documents sont utilisés dans divers domaines d’application comme l’apprentissage à distance, la télémédecine, les visites virtuelles, la publicité, etc. Ces documents sont généralement modélisés par quatre dimensions: la dimension logique, la dimension temporelle, la dimension spatiale et la dimension hypermédia. Avec le temps, de nouveaux besoins sont apparus dans l’utilisation des documents multimédia, nous citons, l’adaptation des documents multimédias (où le document multimédia est présenté selon un profil utilisateur), la composition de document multimédia (qui permet de concevoir un document suite à une requête utilisateur), la recomposition de document multimédia (qui permet à un auteur de reconcevoir son document suite à l’analyse des traces de lecture), la génération de résumé automatique, etc. Les informations contenues dans ces quatre dimensions se révèlent insuffisantes pour répondre à ces besoins. D'autres informations sont donc nécessaires. Dans ce travail, nous proposons d'étendre ce modèle à cinq dimensions, en définissant une nouvelle dimension: la dimension annotation. Cette dernière comportera des informations sur le document, ses entités, son auteur et ses lecteurs, qui contribueront à la prise en charge des applications précitées.

Abstract

Absract. A challenge that course authors face when reviewing their contents is to detect how to improve their courses in order to meet the expectations of their learners. In this paper, we propose an analytical approach that exploits learners' logs of reading to provide authors with insightful data about the consumption of their courses. We first model reading activity using the concept of reading-session and propose a new and efficient session identification. We then elaborate a list of indicators computed using learners' reading sessions that allow to represent their behaviour and to infer their needs. We evaluate our proposals with course authors and learners using logs from a major e-learning platform. Interesting results were found. This demonstrates the effectiveness of the approach in identifying aspects and parts of a course that may prevent it from being easily read and understood, and for guiding the authors through the analysis and review tasks.

Absract. Providing high-quality courses is of utmost importance to drive successful learning. This compels course authors to continuously review their contents to meet learners’ needs. However, it is challenging for them to detect the reading barriers that learners face with content, and to identify how their courses can be improved accordingly. In this paper, we propose a learning analytics approach for assisting course authors performing these tasks. Using logs of learners’ activity, a set of indicators related to course reading activity are computed and used to detect issues and to suggest content revisions. The results are presented to authors through CoReaDa, a learning dashboard empowered with assistive features. We instantiate our proposals using the logs of a major European e-learning platform, and validate them through a study. Study results show the effectiveness of our approach providing authors with more awareness and guidance in improving their courses, to better suit learners’ requirements.

Abstract

Fulltext
Absract. Hypervideos are hypermedia documents that focus on video content. While they have long been deployed using specialized software or even hardware, the Web now offers a ground for them to fit into standardized languages and implementations. However, hypervideo design also currently uses very specific models limited to a single class of documents, or very generic hypermedia models that may not appropriately express their specific features. In this article we describe such features, and we introduce CHM, an annotation-driven and component-based model to conceptualize hypervideos through a high level operational specification. An extensible set of high level components is defined to emphasize the presentation and interaction features modeling, while lower level components offer more flexibility and customization opportunities. Being annotation-based, the model promotes a clear separation between video content/metadata and their various potential presentations. We also describe WebCHM, an implementation of CHM with standard Web technologies that provides a general framework to experiment with hypervideos on the Web. Two examples are provided as well as a preliminary usage study of the model and its implementation to validate our claims and proposals.

Abstract

Absract. Defining a learning space of reference may be a challenging task for the concerned tutor(s). However, once formalized, such a representation of possible learning sequences may serve as a norm to evaluate the current state of a learner and to potentially derive recommendations about the next learning state to target. A pragmatic strategy is introduced in this article to ease the definition of a subjective learning space from a few tutor(s)-provided examples of representative learning paths. A measure is then also inferred from these representative paths that can then be used to evaluate an ongoing learning path. The learning space and the evaluation measure, combined together, are then used to suggest the learning activity the learner should address next.

Absract. Les tableaux de bord d'apprentissage visent à soutenir la prise de décision au cours du processus d'apprentissage. Cependant, leur adoption à grande échelle reste limitée. Si ce constat peut s'expliquer par leur apparition relativement récente, la recherche montre que ceci est également dû au manque de participation des parties prenantes au processus de conception. Afin de soutenir ce processus tout en impliquant les utilisateurs, nous proposons d'articuler autour d'un espace de conception partagé un outil de conception participative pour la phase d'idéation et un outil génératif pour la phase de prototypage. Nous analysons ces outils en termes de facilité d'utilisation, de soutien à la participation ou d'expérience utilisateur, suivant les phases. L'analyse des retours obtenus montrent que ces outils sont utilisables et apportent un soutien tant à la participation des utilisateurs finaux qu'à l'expérience utilisateur des développeurs.

Abstract

Absract. Learning Analytics Dashboards (LADs) deliver rich and actionable representations of learning data to support meaningful and insightful decisions that ultimately leverage the learning process. Yet, because of their limited large-scale adoption, their design is still a major area of inquiry in education research. In this paper, we propose to expand LAD codesign approaches. We first investigate how the user makes sense of the data delivered by LADs and how to support this sensemaking process during the design. Second, we propose a generative tool, supporting sensemaking and decision making process, that extends end-users participation during the prototyping phase and empowers LAD designers. A qualitative evaluation of the tool including usability and user experience is provided.

Abstract

Accepted version
Absract. Learning Analytics Dashboards (LADs) are data visualization tools built to empower teachers and learners to make purposeful decisions that impact the learning process. Due to their relatively recent emergence and the scarcity of studies on their design principles, dashboard design remains a major area of investigation in learning analytics research, and large scale diffusion to their stakeholders remains limited. We promote human-centered approaches for LADs design since their success in terms of acceptance and adoption greatly depends on the level of stakeholder involvement in their design. In this paper, we present a tool to support the participatory design of LADs. First experiments during a pilot study with teachers demonstrate that the proposed tool encourages group work, and in-depth exploration of LADs use.

Absract. It is a challenging task to identify eLearning courses parts that have to be revised to best suit learners’ requirements. Reading being one of the most salient learning activities, one way of doing so is to study how learners consume courses. We intend to support course authors (e.g. teachers) during courses revision by providing them with reading indicators. We use the concept of reading session to denote a learner’s active reading period, and we provide several associated reading indicators. In our server-side approach, reading sessions and indicators are calculated using web server logs. We evaluate the relevance of our proposals using logs from a major French eLearning platform. Results are promising: calculated reading sessions are theoretically more precise than other best applicable approaches, and course authors consider suggested indicators to be appropriate to courses revision. Using reading sessions and associated indicators could facilitate authors’ work of course reengineering.

Absract. This ongoing work investigates usage-based document reengineering as a means to support authors in modifying their documents. Document usages (i.e. usage feedbacks) cover readers' explicit annotations and their reading traces. We first describe a conceptual framework with various levels of assistance for document reengineering: indications on reading, problem detection, reconception suggestions and automatic reconception propositions, taking our example in e-learning document management. We then present a technical framework for usage-based document reengineering and its associated models for documents, annotations and traces representation.

Abstract

Absract. Hypervideo offers enhanced video-centric experiences. Usually defined from a hypermedia perspective, the lack of a dedicated specification hampers hypervideo domain and concepts from being broadly investigated. This article proposes a specialized hypervideo model that addresses hypervideo specificities. Following the principles of component-based modeling and annotation-driven content abstracting, the Component-based Hypervideo Model (CHM) that we propose is a high level representation of hypervideos that intends to provide a general and dedicated hypervideo data model. Considered as a video-centric interactive document, the CHM hypervideo presentation and interaction features are expressed through a high level operational specification. Our annotation-driven approach promotes a clear separation of data from video content and document visualizations. The model serves as a basis for a Web-oriented implementation that provides a declarative syntax and accompanying tools for hypervideo document design in a Web standards-compliant manner.

Absract. Effective video-based Web information system deployment is still challenging, while the recent widespread of multimedia further raises the demand for new online audiovisual document edition and presentation alternatives. Hyper video, a specialization of hypermedia focusing on video, can be used on the Web to provide a basis for video-centric documents and to allow more elaborated practices of online video. In this paper, we propose an annotation-driven model to conceptualize hyper videos, promoting a clear separation between video content/metadata and their various potential presentations. Using the proposed model, features of hyper video are grafted to wider video-based Web documents in a Web standards-compliant manner. The annotation-driven hyper video model and its implementation offer a general framework to experiment with new interaction modalities for video-based knowledge communication on the Web.

Abstract

Absract. In the multimedia documents authoring systems the management of spatial and temporal inter-objects relations is the most delicate task. Spatial relations management refers to the appropriate means to express relations between the document objects and guarantee their consistency. Usually it is represented by spatial model which performances depend on its expressivity degree, on its positioning precision and on the ability to express a desired overlap. One of the most important factor that affects performances is the distance associated to the relations. To enhance the expressivity and precision degrees and to allow the specification of desired overlap, we introduce, in this paper, the flexible distance concept.

Temporal composition is the most important feature of multimedia presentations because it defines the overall scheduling of temporal events.

Absract. Learning dashboards aim to support decision-making throughout the learning process. However, their widespread adoption remains limited. While this observation can be attributed to their relatively recent emergence, research indicates that it is also due to a lack of stakeholder participation in the design process. To address this issue and involve users, we propose an integrated approach using a participatory design tool for the ideation phase and a generative tool for prototyping. We analyze these tools in terms of usability, support for participation, and user experience across the different phases. The analysis of feedback received demonstrates that these tools facilitate both end-user participation and developer user experience.

Absract. Ensuring the delivery of high-quality courses that foster successful learning outcomes is crucial. Course authors are faced with the ongoing challenge of revising their content to meet the ever-evolving needs of learners. However, detecting barriers that hinder learners' reading experience and identifying effective strategies for course improvement remains a daunting task. In this paper, we present a learning analytics approach designed to assist course authors in tackling these challenges. Leveraging learners' activity logs, we employ a set of indicators that specifically capture course reading activity, enabling the detection of issues and offering suggestions for content revisions. Our approach culminates in CoReaDa, an innovative learning dashboard equipped with assistive features. To validate our proposals, we instantiate our approach using the logs from a prominent European e-learning platform and conduct a comprehensive study. The study's results unequivocally demonstrate the efficacy of our approach, equipping course authors with heightened awareness and precise guidance in enhancing their courses to better align with learners' evolving requirements.

Abstract

Absract. Defined as a specialization of hypermedia focusing on interactive video, hypervideo is an attractive technology that promises non-conventional and powerful features. It aims to bring more powerful capabilities for video-centric documents and to offer novel user experiences with more elaborated practices and advanced interaction alternatives. Usually considered from a conventional hypermedia perspective, the underlying concepts and representations are too general to qualify hypervideos, preventing this kind of documents from being broadly investigated. The need for theoretical foundations for hypervideos motivates the present work. With the aim to provide a formal data model that considers hypervideo beyond the very general and conventional hypermedia ones, CHM - Component-based Hypervideo Model - is an attempt to theorize hypervidéos using a component-based modeling and an annotation-driven document description. The proposed model serves as a basis for a Web-oriented implementation used as a proof of principles and a means to provide a basis for more elaborated practices of online video implementation since the features of hypervideo are grafted to wider video-based Web documents in a simple yet powerful and Web standards-compliant manner.
