    Behind the Screens: Exploring Eye Movement Visualization to Optimize Online Teaching and Learning
    (Mensch und Computer 2023 - Tagungsband, 2023) Sauter, Marian; Wagner, Tobias; Hirzle, Teresa; Lin, Bao Xin; Rukzio, Enrico; Huckauf, Anke
    The effective delivery of e-learning relies on the continuous monitoring and management of students' attention. While instructors in traditional classroom settings can readily assess crowd attention through gaze cues, these cues are largely unavailable in online learning environments. To address this challenge and highlight the significance of our study, we collected eye movement data from twenty students and developed four visualization methods: (a) a heat map, (b) an ellipse map, (c) two moving bars, and (d) one vertical bar, which were overlaid on 13 instructional videos. Our findings revealed unexpected preferences among instructors. Contrary to expectations, they did not favor the established heat map and vertical bar for live online teaching. Instead, they opted for the less intrusive ellipse visualization. Despite this, the heat map remained the preferred choice for retrospective analyses due to its more detailed information. Importantly, all visualizations were deemed useful and contributed to re-establishing emotional connections in online learning. In conclusion, our innovative visualizations of crowd attention demonstrate considerable potential for a broad range of applications, extending beyond e-learning to encompass all online presentations and retrospective analyses. The significant outcomes of our study underscore the crucial role these visualizations will play in enhancing both the effectiveness and emotional connectedness of future e-learning experiences, thereby facilitating the educational landscape.

    Depreciating the online experience: Relative evaluation of social presence in online, hybrid, and offline course environments
    (21. Fachtagung Bildungstechnologien (DELFI), 2023) Matter, Philipp; Leikert-Boehm, Ninja; Heinrich, Peter
    COVID-19 accelerated the shift to online and hybrid instruction. While the literature shows that online courses can often perform as well as in-person classes, it is difficult to establish social presence, an important predictor of learning outcomes, at a distance. In this paper, we present exploratory observations of online, hybrid, and in-person environments of three courses at a Swiss university from 2021 to 2022. We were interested in our students’ perceptions of social presence in and between courses. The results show significant differences in course ratings and suggest carry-over effects between different course modalities, such that students who attend a course in person systematically rate online courses lower than students who attend only online. These effects disappear when courses are delivered exclusively in person.

    The diversity of online teaching in Chinese universities during the pandemic.
    (Proceedings of DELFI Workshops 2020, 2020) Zhang, Xiaohan; Köhler, Thomas; Lucke, Ulrike
    Online Education is one of the important directions of future education reforms. The pandemic happened at the beginning of this year worldwide has promoted the pace of online education namely online teaching. What are the characteristics of online learning in an emergency? The article presents the results of a survey on the status and experience of online teaching during the pandemic in Chinese universities. Teaching platform, teaching form, teaching process, teaching content, teaching effect, learning environment and obstacles of online teaching are analysed. Chinese studies also showed that especially students with disabilities are affected by the Corona situation. Some benefit from the flexibility of online learning, but many suffer from missing competencies or missing aids. The overview of effects and empirical data presented here may help to promote and enhance the accessibility of educational media technology.

    Now you (don’t) see me – Camera use in online course settings
    (21. Fachtagung Bildungstechnologien (DELFI), 2023) Leikert-Boehm, Ninja; Matter, Philipp; Heinrich, Peter
    The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the transformation towards online and hybrid teaching. While these modalities have been shown to have many beneficial aspects, they can also limit the social presence and collective engagement in learning activities. In this paper, we present exploratory observations on the role of video features in online and hybrid course settings during the pandemic. By analyzing survey data from three university courses in 2021/2022, we identify different explanations for students’ behavior in regulating their social presence by turning their cameras on (or rather off). We suggest that the benefits of cameras are highly contextual and may conflict with students’ specific goals and expectations, as well as their territorial habits, which should be taken into account when designing course content and didactic methods.
