Proposal for design an instrument for video lectures analysis in MOOC

Abstract

This article carried out the process of construction and validation of an instrument to assess the structure of video lectures from MOOC. The tool is divided in the parts of the class: opening, core and closure for check how each part contribute to the narrative sequence. The aim of the study is based on the need to made proposals for the production of videos for massive on line courses because the trend is to replicate the traditional teaching models of information transfer. The design process and the theoretical supports that frame of the questions are explained, as well as the result of the assessment of the experts and the piloting of the instrument. In the end, the article offers perspectives for the design of video-lessons and to have instruments that allow teachers and instructional designers of virtual courses to make a checklist to the Storytelling tips and audiovisual narrative that reinforce the discourses contained in the video-lessons. The results of the analysis identified progress and limitations in the construction of the resources. Based on the findings, reflections are offered on how these resources could be improved. It concludes with a proposal to use the instrument to open new lines of research that support the video lessons production and to give ideas about how use resources of the television streaming like Netflix, in  the pedagogical sequences in on- line courses.
