Research using HyperRESEARCH for Video Analysis
A recently published study on distance education utilized HyperRESEARCH for analysis of video source material.
"Teaching and Learning Against all Odds: A Video-Based Study of Learner-to-Instructor Interaction in International Distance Education" by Jean-Marie Muhirwa, published in The International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning August 2009 issue, is available at: http://www.irrodl.org/index.php/irrodl/article/view/628/1314.
In this mixed-methods approach, a quantitative analysis of video interactions in distance learning was complimented with qualitative analysis using HyperRESEARCH.
