This tutorial, led by Negin Mirriahi (University of South Australia) and Jelena Jovanovic (University of Belgrade), provides an overview of the learning analytics research focused on educational videos. The first half of the tutorial presents the rationale and motivation for video-based LA (i.e., why and how it could be useful), explores the types of questions it could help answer, and points out some of the challenges associated with video-based LA. The second half of the tutorial is more technically oriented, focusing more on the practical aspects of video-based LA (specifically different kinds of features that have been used in video-based LA, the challenges associated with feature extraction / engineering (e.g., those related to the richness and quality of data), and how such features have been further used in the analytics process to answer different research questions).
