Datasets are critical for emotion analysis in the machine learning field. This study aims to explore emotion analysis datasets and related benchmarks in online learning, since, currently, there are very few studies that explore the same. We have scientifically labeled the topic and nine-category emotion of 4715 comment texts in online learning…

In recent years, many studies have highlighted the need to go beyond the "one-size-fits-all" gamification approach to tailored or personalised gamification to optimise students' engagement based on their user attributes. However, little is known about its effectiveness on student engagement. To advance the understanding of personalized…

This study takes the value-based adoption model and CIE model of the learning process as the theoretical basis and combines them to explore the influencing factors and mechanisms of learners' online interaction and perceived value. Based on the questionnaire survey data of 81 learners' potential factors and their 45,166 real-time behavior data on…

With the ever-increasing adoption of MOOCs, the study of MOOCs learning behavior has been paid more and more attention, both in practice and in academia. This study aims to understand the impact of resource integration (including platform resources, teacher resources, and learner resources) on learners' perception of value co-creation (including…

Online tests offer many advantages but they still belong to assessment, which may make learners have anxiety. Thus, students may experience certain emotion. Academic emotion is a branch of emotion and has great effects on student learning. Such effects can be associated with individual differences, especially prior knowledge. To this end, this…

Virtual reality (VR) has been shown to induce excessive affective processing, which in turn impacts the learning process and learning outcomes. Therefore, a better understanding of emotional dynamics and how emotions are instigated while learning with VR is needed. For this purpose, the students learning process with a VR simulation was captured…

The use of Instagram is becoming increasingly popular among students. Excessive Instagram use (EIU) has become a growing problem that can impact students' lives psychosocially. This study applied uses and gratifications theory (UGT) to explore the impact of social gratification, content gratification, and entertainment along with social presence,…

A video lecture instructor exhibiting positive emotion has been shown to induce similar emotions in students, improving the students' motivation and increasing their attention, thus improving their learning performance. However, little systematic research exists on which specific design features with regards to the instructor can induce such…

It is possible that individuals do not endorse a general mindset or theory of intelligence and that their mindset is specific to particular domains. There is currently a dearth of evidence to support this possibility. It is also not known how these two types of mindset influence learning behaviors and outcomes. This study investigates the roles of…

A student's interest level can strongly affect the learning process, and thus, can be considered an important factor in the effort to improve learning. Presently, student interest is primarily assessed by administering questionnaires or conducting case analyses. However, this method cannot provide timely feedback in the learning environment to…

Teaching science in higher education has traditionally consisted of delivering knowledge as lectures to students following a teacher-centered methodology. The flipped methodology known as inverted instruction can be used as an alternative approach providing a student-centered class. This contribution presents a comparison of two different…

Sentiment analysis (SA) is widespread across all fields and has become one of the most active topics in education research, and there is a growing body of papers published. So far, however, there has been little discussion about comprehensive literature reviews in SA in education. Therefore, this study aims to review the high-qualified scientific…

Monitoring one's learning activities is a key component of self-regulated learning (SRL) leading to successful learning and performance outcomes across settings. Achievement emotions also play an important part in SRL and consequently student learning outcomes. However, there is little research on how specific types of monitoring (i.e.…

Metaverse is an immersive three-dimensional (3D) virtual world inhabited by avatars beyond the physical realm. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the education system and the need to accelerate the digitalization of education has received a lot of attention. Metaverse can be an alternative solution for sociocultural interaction and to continue…

Learners' emotional states might change during the learning process, and unpredictable variations of a person's emotions raise the demand for regular assessment of feelings during learning. In this paper, an AI-based decision framework is proposed and implemented for e-learning systems that identify suitable micro-brake activities based on the…
