Abstract
Streaming video on the World Wide Web is being widely deployed, and workplace training and
distance education are key applications of the technology. The ability to annotate video
presentations on the Web can provide significant added value to these applications. Written and
spoken annotations can provide “in context― personal notes and enable asynchronous
collaboration, turning passive internet media content into interactive, living content. We discuss
design considerations in constructing a collaborative video annotation system and introduce our
prototype, called MRAS. We present preliminary data on use of MRAS for personal note-taking
and for sharing notes. The subjects in our studies showed a strong preference for using MRAS to
take notes (although it took longer to do so), as compared to pen-and-paper. The subjects also
indicated they would make more comments and questions with MRAS than in a “live―
class, and that sharing added substantial value. We also discovered some surprising results with
respect to usability aspects of a video-annotation system.
