The Affective Meta-Tutoring Project: Lessons Learned
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Affective Meta-Tutoring system is comprised of (1) a tutor that teaches system dynamics modeling, (2) a meta-tutor that teaches good strategies for learning how to model from the tutor, and (3) an affective learning companion that encourages students to use the learning strategy that the metatutor teaches. The affective learning companion’s messages are selected by using physiological sensors and log data to determine the student’s affective state. Evaluations compared the learning gains of three conditions: the tutor alone, the tutor plus meta-tutor and the tutor, meta-tutor and affective learning companion.

متن کاملRefining Tailored Scaffolding for Meta- Cognitive Skills during Analogical Problem Solving
In this paper, we discuss lessons learned from an evaluation of the EACoach, an Intelligent Tutoring System that aims to foster meta-cognitive skills during analogical problem solving. The evaluation of the EA-Coach demonstrated that overall, it is effective in its pedagogical approach, but that there are instances where its scaffolding for meta-cognition is too subtle. We discuss implications ...
متن کاملLong-term Child-Robot Tutoring Interactions: Lessons Learned
As social robots become more widely used as educational tutoring agents, it is important to study how children interact with these systems, and how effective they are as assessed by learning gains, sustained engagement, and perceptions of the robot tutoring system as a whole. In this paper, we summarize our prior work involving a long-term child-robot interaction study and outline important les...
