An Interactive Multimedia Model for Developing QOE-Enhanced E-Learning Platforms

Abstract

This paper provides an approach to providing QOE enhancement for a multifaceted learning platform that includes streamed media content. We demonstrate how the QOE of a multifaceted platform can be enhanced using the Lighthouse tool. The Lighthouse tool helped improve the page load speed by 75%. We also demonstrate how the playback quality of the video streaming content can be enhanced using CMAF-formatted DASH content. When compared to single-bit rate media, DASH-based media provided better video playback quality. The study also evaluates the learners` preferences for specific interactive features of a learning platform. The least preferred feature uniquely had static content. The results of this study provide empirical data that would help instructional designers make feature selection choices that`s guided by empirical data and improve the QOE of their instructional learning platforms.
