3.1 Four Comment Categories and Three Commenting Attitudes Madden et al. (2013) categorized YouTube comments into three categories based on their relevance to the videos: 1) comments related to video content, 2) comments related to video context, and 3) general comments that do not relate to video content or context. Building upon this general categorization scheme, we specified the three comment categories with a focus on user participation in learning and sharing drawing skills. Below are the reframed comment categories that represent four different types of comments: • Information type: Comments elaborating on or requesting explicit information directly related to the posted video, providing an objective statement or point of view. (e.g., “So, brows decide the styles of eyes.”) • Feedback type: Comments asking for more information about how to apply the video to practice or feedback to the commenter’s work created based on the instruction of the posted video. (e.g., “I got stuck in drawing ellipse.”) • Opinion type: Comments assessing the quality of the posted video, stating the commenter’s subjective, often critical, point-of-view. (e.g., “this is useless”) • General conversation type: Comments initiating or continuing conversations to interact with other viewers and share information, often not directly related to the video content. (e.g., “Thank you for your tutorials”) Apart from the content types, the collected comments showed three different attitudes that reflect the commenter’s engagement in learning and sharing drawing skills: • Constructive and positive attitude: Comments showing interests and curiosity directly related to video content and context, generating questions and discussions to apply the video content to different contexts, share more information, and build knowledge about creative practice (Fosnot & Perry, 1996; Madden et al., 2013). • Judgmental and negative attitude: Comments related to video content or context but not contributing to skill-sharing or knowledge construction nor acknowledging the shared content, mostly aiming to criticize and judge. • Irrelevant attitude: Comments not related to video content or context and irrelevant to the subject or topic of the video, showing ambiguous or no learning intention. Table 3 shows that the general conversation type of comment is most prevalent (mostly taking a judgmental and negative attitude), while the feedback type of comments is the least in most videos (mostly taking a constructive and positive attitude). The opinion type of comments often shows an irrelevant attitude to learning and practicing creative skills. The overall statistics imply that most comments are intended simply to start a conversation and interact with other users, not necessarily to learn and practice creative skills. Design opportunities lie in supporting this relatively small but highly motivated group of users by prioritizing to reveal and reward their constructive, content specific comments from the majority of irrelevant ones.
