Facial Signs of Affect During Tutoring Sessions

چکیده
An emotionally intelligent tutoring system should be able to taking into account relevant aspects of the mental state of the student when providing feedback. The student’s facial expressions, put in context, could provide cues with respect to this state. We discuss the analysis of the facial expression displayed by students interacting with an Intelligent Tutoring System and our attempts to relate expression, situation and mental state building on Scherer’s component process model of emotion appraisal.

متن کاملToward a Machine Learning Framework for Understanding Affective Tutorial Interaction
Affect and cognition intertwine throughout human experience. Research into this interplay during learning has identified relevant cognitiveaffective states, but recognizing them poses significant challenges. Among multiple promising approaches for affect recognition, analyzing facial expression may be particularly informative. Descriptive computational models of facial expression and affect, su...
متن کاملPredicting Facial Indicators of Confusion with Hidden Markov Models
Affect plays a vital role in learning. During tutoring, particular affective states may benefit or detract from student learning. A key cognitiveaffective state is confusion, which has been positively associated with effective learning. Although identifying episodes of confusion presents significant challenges, recent investigations have identified correlations between confusion and specific fa...
متن کاملAffect Detection from Multichannel Physiology during Learning Sessions with AutoTutor
It is widely acknowledged that learners experience a variety of emotions while interacting with Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS), hence, detecting and responding to emotions might improve learning outcomes. This study uses machine learning techniques to detect learners’ affective states from multichannel physiological signals (heart activity, respiration, facial muscle activity, and skin cond...
متن کاملAnalyzing Learner Affect in a Scenario-Based Intelligent Tutoring System
Scenario-based tutoring systems influence affective states due to two distinct mechanisms during learning: 1) reactions to performance feedback and 2) responses to the scenario context or events. To explore the role of affect and engagement, a scenario-based ITS was instrumented to support unobtrusive facial affect detection. Results from a sample of university students showed relatively few tr...
