Towards an Interactive E-learning System Based on Emotions and Affective Cognition

In order to promote a more dynamic and flexible communication between the learner and the system, we present a structure of a new innovative and interactive e-learning system which implements emotion and level of cognition recognition. The system has as inputs the emotional and cognitive state of the user and re-organises the content and adjusts the flow of the course. Our concept aims to increase the learning efficiency of intelligent tutoring systems by using a combination of characteristics, such as content customization and user’s emotion recognition, and adapting all these features into a learner-centered educational system.
