The global pandemic caused by the COVID virus led universities to a change in the way they teach classes, moving to a distance mode. The subject "Modelos y Sistemas de Costos " of the CPA career of the Faculty of Economic Sciences and Administration of the Universidad de la República (Uruguay) incorporated audiovisual material as a pedagogical resource consisting of videos recorded by a group of well experienced and highest ranked teachers. The objective of this research is to analyze the efficiency of the audiovisual resources used in the course, seeking to answer whether the visualizations of said materials follow certain patterns of behavior. 13 videos were analyzed, which had 16,340 views, coming from at least 1,486 viewers.

It is also concluded that the efficiency in viewing time increases in short videos.
