SUMMARY
Collaborative video creation on the part of the learners has the potential of stimulating
motivation and of combining or "juxtaposing" domain understanding (e.g. in science
domains) with creative-artistic expression. This resonates with pedagogical approaches
such as "learning by making" or "learning by teaching". Exploring this approach has
been the main inspiration underlying the recently finished European project JuxtaLearn.
In this context, learning analytics techniques have been applied to video comments and
action logs. Building concept networks from the comments as textual artefacts allowed
for inferring models of student domain knowledge and misconceptions. This sheds light
on the question if the creative-artistic part of video-making is rather a competing or a
supporting factor related to improving the scientific understanding of the domain. On a
methodological level, it shows the potential of including artefact analyses in our reper-
toire of analytic methods.
