Inclusive Interactive Multimedia Experiences in School Contexts With Learning Analytics Integration

This study characterizes Inclusive Interactive Multimedia Experiences (IIMEs) within school contexts by integrating learning analytics to enable personalized student monitoring and evaluation. By analyzing regulatory documents and multimedia systems (MS) development methodologies, this paper provides comprehensive guidance for IIME pre-production, focusing on learning objectives, activities, responsible design, and inclusion. The research presents a detailed framework for IIME development. It addresses the integration of digital media, interaction modalities, sensory systems, and emotional engagement. Furthermore, it examines the technological mediation necessary to deliver a holistic multimedia experience, prioritizing accessibility and cultural sensitivity. A case study conducted at Rafael Navia Varón School in Cali, Colombia, demonstrates the practical application of the proposed framework through the development of Decisiones Cruciales, an IIME designed to address bullying and cyberbullying via interactive storytelling. This IIME uses learning analytics to provide teachers with detailed metrics on student performance and socio-emotional competencies. The findings from the students’ analysis highlight their engagement and the educational impact of the IIME, particularly in fostering empathy and communication skills. The results underscore the potential of IIMEs to advance inclusive education by delivering adaptive and culturally relevant content. This study contributes to the academic literature by offering practical guidelines for designing and implementing IIMEs that align with universal accessibility and responsible design principles, ultimately promoting an equitable and effective educational environment.
