Online Learning Video Recommendation System Based on Course and Sylabus Using Content-Based Filtering

Abstract

Learning using video media such as watching videos on YouTube is an alternative method of learning that is often used. However, there are so many learning videos available that finding videos with the right content is difficult and time-consuming. Therefore, this study builds a recommendation system that can recommend videos based on courses and syllabus. The recommendation system works by looking for similarity between courses and syllabus with video annotations using the cosine similarity method. The video annotation is the title and description of the video captured in real-time from YouTube using the YouTube API. This recommendation system will produce recommendations in the form of five videos based on the selected courses and syllabus. The test results show that the average performance percentage is 81.13% in achieving the recommendation system goals, namely relevance, novelty, serendipity and increasing recommendation diversity.
