Abstract

Computer-based learning and training has increased over the past few decades and has become the norm of today. This allows students to learn from the comfort of their home at their convenient time and pace. The learning materials can be accessed at any time and from anywhere making it easier for students. Recent studies indicate that negative emotions such as anger, frustration, confusion, and boredom inhibit the learning process and positive emotions such as excitement and enthusiasm support the learning process. Many students complain of boredom and similar negative emotions, which deteriorate the rate of learning. This research tries to integrate the emotion recognition system to help students during the learning process. Appropriate coping mechanisms can be integrated into the e-learning system to keep the students engaged and alert in the process. Emotions can be identified using wearable sensors and appropriate learning activity or breaks or physical activity can be given to students based on the emotion experienced by the students.
