International Association for Development of the Information Society, Paper presented at the International Association for Development of the Information Society (IADIS) International Conference on Cognition and Exploratory Learning in the Digital Age (CELDA) (21st, Zagreb, Croatia, Oct 26-28, 2024)
The content analysis included video lectures posted in 208 MOOCs on the Polish educational platform NAVOICA. The aim was to determine their subject matter and the methods of preparing video lectures. It turned out that video lectures were included in 57% of MOOCs, most often related to "Medical and health sciences" and "Humanities." They appeared least frequently in MOOCs in the fields of "Engineering and technology" and "Natural sciences," as they were replaced by recordings of screen scrolling and PowerPoint presentations, usually supplemented with commentaries and music. Video lectures were short, just a few minutes in length. Authors introduced the course and its modules, presented educational content by speaking to the camera, staged scenes illustrating the course issues, interviewed experts, conducted experiments, and presented and commented on events and phenomena such as landforms and water conditions. Videos downloaded from YouTube and Vimeo were also used. Some video lectures were produced as part of international projects. Implementation possibilities were limited by the COVID-19 pandemic, as more than 160 MOOCs were realized as part of a project launched in November 2019. Moreover, most universities did not have the technical conditions to produce high-quality films. The use of synthetic voiceovers limited the expression of comments. There is a need for organizational and technical support for lecturers and a systematic addition of high-quality video lectures to the NAVOICA platform resources.
