SUMMARY
Local matters!
Courses have unique “signatures”!
Structure, e.g., # and length of videos!
Engagement, e.g., % active learning.!
Overall length of videos is negatively correlated
with retention!
But length of individual videos does not show such
relationship. !
True for both universities

30. @hummus_monster @simonpbates @UBC_CTLT #STLHE2014
DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
Long videos may be okay!
Especially later in the course!
Keep overall load reasonable.!
Active learning is not affected by week-by-week
variations!
Two-stage courses: attractiveness and retention.
