Publicación Automatic assignment of reviewers in an online peer assessment task based on social interactions(Wiley Online Library, 2019) Anaya, Antonio R.; Luque Gallego, Manuel; Letón Molina, Emilio; Hernández del Olmo, FélixOnline peer assessment tasks are very popular and have unique characteristics that improve learning and encourage social interactions in a distance education environment. Unfortunately, social factors have usually been ignored in the process of selecting reviewers for online peer assessment tasks. We hypothesise that this fact could have some influence on the lack of engagement and participation by some learners. For this reason, we propose an approach in which social network analysis techniques, expert criteria, and Bayesian reasoning are applied to select reviewers with the objective of increasing participation in peer review tasks. The approach is divided into two elements. On the one hand, we have developed an influence diagram template that structures a set of proposed social network analysis variables in accordance with expert criteria. This influence diagram template can be easily updated for any course simply by eliciting a minimal set of parameters. On the other hand, we have instantiated the proposed influence diagram template to produce an influence diagram network to quantify the quality of reviewer assignment for an online peer assessment task. In an online experiment, we verified that the consideration of social factors can increase participation in a peer assessment task.Publicación Performance of students with different accessibility needs and preferences in “Design for All” MOOCs(Public Library of Science, 2024-03-07) Rodríguez Ascaso, Alejandro; Molanes López, Elisa M.; Jorge Pe´rez-Martı´nI; Pérez Martín, Jorge; Letón Molina, Emilio; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3217-8551Recent research has shown that Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) create barriers for students with disabilities. Not taking into account their needs in the design, production or delivery of MOOCs may be one of the main causes behind this. It leads to poor compliance with suitable learning designs and web accessibility standards, as well as a lack of knowledge about the students’ needs. The objective of our research is to analyze the learning performance of the students in MOOCs on topics related to Design for All, offered in an Open edX-based platform. Accessibility support was conceived from the outset, including compliance of both the platform and the learning resources with the WCAG 2.1 accessibility standard, and with a subset of the principles of Universal Design for Learning. Additionally, students were consulted on their accessibility needs and preferences, following publicly available modeling schemes and previous research. From a sample of 765 students, who completed at least one of the graded assessment activities of the course, a multilevel multiple logistic regression model was fitted. Based on that model, the results indicate that: a) users of screen readers and users of captions show a statistically significant positive association with a good performance when compared to students with no preferences, with an odds ratio of, respectively, OR = 13.482 and OR = 13.701; b) students who have low vision or very low vision show a significant negative association with a good performance when compared to users of screen readers and to users of captions, with OR = 26.817 and OR = 27.254, respectively.Publicación Assessment of Video Accessibility by Students of a MOOC on Digital Materials for All(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2021-05-21) Elisa M. Molanes López; Rodríguez Ascaso, Alejandro; Letón Molina, Emilio; Pérez Martín, Jorge; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3217-8551The assessment of multimedia accessibility is a relevant, complex and time-consuming task, which takes more than simply checking whether the video has audiodescription and captions or not. In our study, we face this challenge through the: 1) involvement of a cohort of novice evaluators, who previously took part in a MOOC on the accessibility of digital content and 2) the division of the accessibility assessment into the application of a set of criteria. Two groups of novice accessibility testers were asked to evaluate the accessibility of two similar videos, one video per group. While both videos were equivalent in terms of their pedagogical content, only one of them had non-severe accessibility barriers for people with low vision and for blind people. Each participant was asked to rate qualitatively a set of statements extracted from the WCAG 2.1 success criteria, one generic statement about the video accessibility, and a set of statements on the quality perception and the aspects of personal preference. The largest differences in ratings occurred for statements whose success criteria had been improved. It was also the case for one success criterion that is understandable but hardly applicable by novice evaluators, according to the literature. However, the difference was statistically significant only for the success criterion with more salient differences between both videos. As a main conclusion, a group of novice evaluators can identify accessibility problems in videos when using specific accessibility statements.
