Background of the Study
With the increasing use of video-based learning materials, universities like the University of Jos are faced with the challenge of making vast amounts of video content accessible and easily digestible for students. Lecture videos, while valuable, can be lengthy and may contain repetitive content, making it difficult for students to review and extract key information efficiently.
Deep learning, a subset of machine learning, offers powerful tools for automating tasks like summarization. Using deep learning techniques such as Natural Language Processing (NLP) and computer vision, it is possible to automatically analyze and summarize lecture videos, highlighting key points and reducing the time needed for students to review course material. This study aims to explore the potential of deep learning for automated lecture video summarization at the University of Jos.
Statement of the Problem
The growing volume of lecture video content at the University of Jos has created challenges in managing and delivering concise, accessible learning resources. Students often find it difficult to sift through lengthy videos to identify important information. A deep learning-based automated video summarization system could streamline this process, making it easier for students to focus on key learning points.
Objectives of the Study
1. To explore the use of deep learning algorithms for automated summarization of lecture videos.
2. To assess the effectiveness of automated video summarization in improving student learning outcomes.
3. To evaluate the feasibility of implementing deep learning-based video summarization at the University of Jos.
Research Questions
1. How can deep learning techniques be applied to automate lecture video summarization at the University of Jos?
2. How effective is deep learning-based summarization in enhancing students’ ability to review and learn from lecture videos?
3. What challenges and limitations arise in implementing deep learning for lecture video summarization in a university setting?
Research Hypotheses
1. Deep learning-based automated video summarization will significantly reduce the time students spend reviewing lecture materials.
2. Students who use summarized lecture videos will demonstrate improved learning outcomes compared to those who review the full-length videos.
3. The implementation of deep learning for video summarization will be feasible and improve the overall efficiency of online learning at the University of Jos.
Significance of the Study
This study will contribute to the use of AI in education, particularly in enhancing the accessibility and efficiency of online learning materials. The findings will benefit the University of Jos and other institutions exploring the use of deep learning to improve educational content delivery.
Scope and Limitations of the Study
The study will focus on the application of deep learning for summarizing lecture videos at the University of Jos, located in Jos North LGA, Plateau State. It will be limited to assessing the technical feasibility and educational impact of the summarization system, excluding other areas of e-learning infrastructure.
