Development and Evaluation of the System for Inputting and Feedbacking Students’ Viewing Responses While Viewing Open Video Content in preliminary study

Abstract

We have developed and evaluated a system for inputting and feedbacking students’ viewing responses using mobile devices. Features of the system include: (1) the ability to set single and multiple choice questions, and set open-ended answers’ questions; (2) the ability during the course of the survey period to enter responses freely any number of times, and to check and revise these prior to final sending; (3)the ability to check, revise, add and delete these after final sending any times; (4) the ability to record the sending duration of the selected answer data and aggregate these along a time axis; (5) the ability to set and graph the width of the aggregate time, enabling students’ viewing responses to be grasped visually along a time axis; Students activate input themselves by pressing ‘start function button’ on a students’ viewing input screen, and deactivate input by pressing ‘completion function button’.Students, while watching the open video contents in YouTube, input their viewing responses by using the system as preliminary study. Teachers analyzed the viewing responses before class and used them to conduct face-to-face classes. As a result, teachers were able to provide classes responding to the students' uncertainties and interests, thus raising the students' comprehension and satisfaction with respect to the face-to-face classes utilizing the system for preliminary study. The students, too, were able to participate critically and thoughtfully in the face-to-face classes by utilizing the system for preliminary study.
