Managing Video Data
The use of video and other related data—images of student work, transcripts of dialogue, test scores, observational notes, and the like—opens up new areas of inquiry and gives us new ways of investigating traditional questions. However, the expanding role of video and other accompanying multimedia data also presents new challenges in data acquisition, management, analysis, and dissemination. The Digital Insight project www.wcer.wisc.edu/digitalinsight/ is automating elements of video data analysis that are currently "handcrafted."
Digital Insight provides a model for managing the entire research process as well as providing a set of tools designed to allow researchers to answer complex questions based on randomly-addressable large video collections.
