An affective model of interplay between emotions and learning: reengineering educational pedagogy-building a learning companion

A novel model is proffers by which to regard the interplay of emotions upon learning and the larger practical aim of crafting computer-based models that will recognize a learner's affective state and respond appropriately to it, so that learning will proceed at an optimal pace.

Abstract

There is an interplay, between emotions and learning, but this interaction is far more complex than previous theories have articulated. The article proffers a novel model by which to: 1). regard the interplay of emotions upon learning for, 2). the larger practical aim of crafting computer-based models that will recognize a learner's affective state and respond appropriately to it, so that learning will proceed at an optimal pace.
