Towards more Interactive Recordings for E-leaming Using Browser Automation

Abstract

Empirical studies reveal low learner engagement and high attrition rates in online learning environments. Interactive features enable fostering learner engagement while displaying sequences of actions. This work intends to use a browser automation tool to recording test scripts as implementing an instructor bot for executing user interactions which a learner would follow for course navigation. Popular Learning Management Systems and a purpose-based taxonomy have been used to evaluate the types of interactions which are supported by the proposal. The results show that interaction types were supported for the most part.
