Multiple view perspectives: improving inclusiveness and video compression in mainstream classroom recordings

Multiple View Perspectives (MVP) enables deaf and hard of hearing students to view and record multiple video views of a classroom presentation using a stand-alone solution. We show that deaf and hard of hearing students prefer multiple, focused videos over a single, high-quality video and that a compacted layout of only the most important views is pre ferred. We also show that this approach empowers deaf and hard of hearing students by virtue of its low cost, flexibility, and ease of use in the classroom.
