A quarter of the students who responded indicated they did not watch any of the recorded videos at all, leading to an average of only 2.74 videos (out of the thirty available videos) watched by each student. One reason for their failure to do so could be that the instructor stopped sending out weekly reminders that the videos were available for them to watch after the third week of instruction. For those who did watch, about 55% of the students watched the lecture videos in their entirety, while the rest watched only part(s) of the videos. None

As examples, considerparticipant O-01802, who remains on-task for a majority of lecture, but occasionally “checks out”of lecture. Compare participant O-01802’s behavior with O-11801 who is mostly off-task, butoccasionally “checks in” to lecture. We also observe various on-task and off-task durationperiods. For example, participants O-02802 and O-03803 have long on-task duration periodswhereas O-05801 and O-05802 have very short on-task periods. Participant O-07802 is off-taskfor nearly the entire lecture (on-task for only 4% of lecture), while participant O-06801 is on-taskfor the entire lecture.
