Lion Sieg; Hendrik Eismann; Bertrand Schneider; Jan Karsten; Dogus Darici – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2025
Background: Research in social cognition suggests that learning effectiveness in teacher-learner pairs may be influenced by how well their attention aligns with each other. However, we currently have limited understanding of how common distractions in real-world environments affect teacher-student interactions, specifically the synchronisation of…

Damnik, Gregor; Proske, Antje; Körndle, Hermann – Interactive Learning Environments, 2017
When teachers or instructors create computer-based learning environments, they often solely consider technical aspects of interactivity. As a consequence, learners' main role is to respond to requests of the learning environment (e.g. by answering multiple-choice questions). This aspect of interactivity is, however, not sufficient to understand…

Yang, Mau-Tsuen; Liao, Wan-Che – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2014
The physical-virtual immersion and real-time interaction play an essential role in cultural and language learning. Augmented reality (AR) technology can be used to seamlessly merge virtual objects with real-world images to realize immersions. Additionally, computer vision (CV) technology can recognize free-hand gestures from live images to enable…

Clarebout, Geraldine; Horz, Holger; Elen, Jan; Schnotz, Wolfgang – World Journal of Education, 2011
Learning environments commonly offer aids to address learners' lack of knowledge or skills. However, learners are not or sub-optimally using these aids when these are non-embedded or segregated (Aleven, Stahl, Schworm, Fischer, & Wallace, 2003; Clarebout & Elen, 2006). This lack of optimal usage has been related to variables as…
