چکیده
Communication is one of the main elements in the educational process and the non-verbal communication including eye blink, which is one of the key non-verbal method, owns the highest portion of the communication. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the role of eye blink in the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). The eye blink is introduced in the VLE and the role of the eye blinking in the VLE is discussed. A system was established to visualize the eye blink of the real user in the VLE through an avatar. An experiment was conducted with eLearners and the result shows that the performance of the eLearners can be enhanced with the implementation of eye blink in VLE and e-Learners prefer the VLE with an eye blinking avatar especially during the group discussion. In addition, there was a mirror eye blink relation between the teacher and the eLearner.
