Multimodal Assessment of Teachers in Immersive Learning Environment
نویسنده
چکیده
People send and receive messages with their body, especially with their hands in interpersonal communications. Gestures play an important role in teacher-student interactions in classrooms. In the domain of education, many research projects have focused on the study of gestures either in real classrooms or in tutorial settings with practicing teachers. Novice teachers need to hone their required skills, including communication, management and content delivery skills, and prior to entering the classroom. To assist in this process, we have developed a virtual classroom environmentTeachLivETMand used it for teacher practice, reflection and assessment. Using semi-automated multimodal annotation procedure, the data collection will be completed. The study tries to perceive the correlations between objective measures of teaching preparedness with nonverbal communication signals. Providing the assessment from the collected data will help teachers in their professional development.
