Active Learning and Interactive Video: a Contradiction in Terms?

Active learning has been demonstrated to be an effective approach to reducing human labeling effort in multimedia annotation tasks. However, most of the existing active learning methods for video annotation are studied in a relatively simple context where concepts are sequentially annotated with fixed effort and only a single modality is applied. However, we usually have to deal with multiple modalities, and sequentially annotating concepts without preference cannot suitably assign annotation effort. To address these two issues, in this paper we propose a multi-concept multi-modality active learning method for video annotation in which multiple concepts and multiple modalities can be simultaneously taken into consideration. In each round of active learning, this method selects the concept that is expected to get the highest performance gain and a batch of suitable samples to be annotated for this concept. Then, a graph-based semi-supervised learning is conducted on each modality for the selected concept. The proposed method is able to sufficiently explore the human effort by considering both the learnabilities of different concepts and the potentials of different modalities. Experimental results on TRECVID 2005 benchmark have demonstrated its effectiveness and efficiency.

Proven Method

Active learning is a popular and proven method used in contemporary educational design and practice. H5P (https://h5p.org/) facilitates easy creation of richer HTML5. Integration of H5P content within course material provides opportunities for students as learners to think critically about what they are being taught and supports the flexibility students are requesting by extending the learning environment. A variety of activities can be developed; case study scenarios, interactive technical demonstrations, 3D images with identification of regions of interest (hotspots; roll-over information; animation), as well as quiz questions in a wide variety of differing formats; fill in the blanks, image and text-based drag and drop, mark the word, interactive video and branching scenario tasks. H5P content can be easily shared across multiple learning management systems (Canvas, Moodle, and Blackboard). Learners receive comprehensive, automatic feedback and their engagement with H5P activities can be tracked by teachers.

This paper will identify and describe two learning games that have been effectively used to spark interest and enthusiasm and to increase active learning in undergraduate business courses. Many current undergraduate college students have grown up with TV game shows, interactive video games, and the Internet as forms of entertainment and education. In comparison to these fast-paced, interactive mediums, a traditional lecture class can seem dull. The use of in-class games is one way to increase student engagement with the class and relevant material.
