| Abstract: | Video-based online learning is becoming commonplace in higher education settings. Prior studies have suggested design principles and instructional strategies to boost video-based learning. However, little research has been done on different learner characteristics, such as how learners behave, what behavioral patterns they exhibit, and how different they are from each other. To fill this research gap in student-video interaction, we employed learning analytics to obtain useful insights into students' learning in the context of video-based online learning. From 11 log behaviors represented by log data from 72 college students, four behavioral patterns were identified while students learned from videos: browsing, social interaction, information seeking, and environment configuration. Based on the behavioral patterns observed, participants were classified into two clusters. Participants in the active learner cluster exhibited frequent use of social interaction, information seeking, and environment configuration, while participants in the passive learner cluster exhibited only frequent browsing. We found that active learners exhibited higher learning achievement than passive learners. • An understanding of learner behavioral patterns is critical to improving video-based learning environments. • We employed learning analytics to obtain insights into students' behavioral patterns in video-based learning. • We identified four behavioral patterns: browsing, social interaction, information seeking, and environment configuration. • The active learner cluster engaged in social activities, information seeking, and environment configuration. • The passive learner cluster only engaged in browsing. • We found that active learners demonstrated better achievement than the passive learners.
