  • Personalized video interjections based on learner model and learning objective
    Patent number: 11122343
    Abstract: Personalized video interjections based on a learner model and a learning objective. A method for adding interjections to a video includes analyzing the content of a plurality of videos based on a set of learning objectives, selecting a video based on a learning objective, determining types of video interjections using an analytics engine that compares a learner model and the learning objective, determining a location for the video interjections using the analytics engine, generating a video interjection for each video interjection type and inserting the video interjections into the video at the determined locations.

  • Personalized video interjections based on learner model and learning objective
    Patent number: 10506303
    Abstract: Personalized video interjections based on a learner model and a learning objective. A method for adding interjections to a video includes analyzing the content of a plurality of videos based on a set of learning objectives, generating and storing educational content metadata on a timeline for the videos, selecting a video based on a user specific learning objective, determining types of video interjections using an analytics engine that compares a user learner model, the user learning objective and the metadata, determining a location for the video interjections using the analytics engine that compares the user learner model, the learning objective, the metadata and timeline, generating a video interjection for each video interjection type and inserting the video interjections into the video at the determined locations.
