Using a Hybrid Recommending System for Learning Videos in Flipped Classrooms and MOOCs

Abstract

New challenges in education require new ways of education. Higher education has adapted to these new challenges by means of offering new types of training like massive online open courses and by updating their teaching methodology using novel approaches as flipped classrooms. These types of training have enabled universities to better adapt to the challenges posed by the pandemic. In addition, high quality learning objects are necessary for these new forms of education to be successful, with learning videos being the most common learning objects to provide theoretical concepts. This paper describes a new approach of a previously presented hybrid learning recommender system based on content-based techniques, which was capable of recommend useful videos to learners and lecturers from a learning video repository. In this new approach, the content-based techniques are also combined with a collaborative filtering module, which increases the probability of recommending relevant videos. This hybrid technique has been successfully applied to a real scenario in the central video repository of the Universitat Politècnica de València.

Systematic Review of Nutritional Recommendation Systems

“…Answering question Q4 defined in Table 1, if we focus on the different filtering methods used by the analyzed systems, we can see a tendency in the use of the collaborative filter. This is not a common result; normally content-based filters are used as starting filtering methods [32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47], and once a considerable amount of data from the users are obtained, collaborative filters are launched. This might be because some studies were started with some initial data about the users.…”

“…Other examples can be found in reference [8], where recommendation systems are designed to improve the passengers' experience and the drivers' profit. Finally, other approaches focused on educating the general public about this topic [9].…”
