Abstract-Emotions have a strong impact on learning processes and regulation strategies. Increasing learners' awareness on their own emotions and group ones, has the potential to significantly improve learning processes. However, the collection of emotional data is challenging, especially in ecological contexts like distance learning and MOOCs. The lack of generic methods and tools for emotional data collection is a crucial issue for the research community. In this paper we present two self-reporting tools we have developed for distance learning. EMORE-L enables to collect emotions from learners through a focused daily questionnaire. CATE supports emotions sharing via emoticons associated to annotations in documents. We conducted two studies in the same Psychology curriculum to compare the type, the number and the co-occurence of emotions reported by learners with each tool. We discuss the differences we observed according to the tool and to the learning situation, so as to bring researchers and practitioners with a list of factors that may influence the emotional data collection process.
Les émotions ont une fonction informationnelle, et peuvent être utilisées par les apprenants pour réguler leur façon d'apprendre. Dans le contexte de l'apprentissage en ligne, peu d'outils informatiques ont été développés pour favoriser la prise de conscience et l'utilisation des émotions. Nous avons conçu EMORE-L (EMOtion REport for E-Learning), un outil de reporting qui collecte non seulement les émotions ressenties mais également des informations en lien avec ces émotions comme l'évaluation que l'apprenant fait de la situation, et sa motivation à partager ses émotions avec les autres. Cet outil a été utilisé par 16 étudiants dans le cadre de leur formation universitaire à distance. La méthode utilisée est inspirée de l'Experience Sampling Method : chaque jour, pendant 15 jours consécutifs, les étudiants ont utilisé EMORE-L pour rapporter leurs émotions. Nous présentons les résultats de cette étude et leur implication pour la conception d'outils de reporting des émotions.
