“…One way in which it is being used is to capture the perception of the inner state of a participant and the value he/she attributes to the interaction, as in the case of Castellano et al ( 2009 ). Poggi ( 2007 ), for example, defined engagement as “the value that a participant in an interaction attributes to the goal of being together with the other participant(s) and continuing the interaction.” Other works highlight the emotion component more predominantly such as Subramainan et al ( 2016a ), Choi et al ( 2012 ), and Sanghvi et al ( 2011 ). For example, in Sanghvi et al ( 2011 ), user's engagement with the iCat is characterized by an affective and attention component.…”

Engagement is a concept of the utmost importance in human-computer interaction, not only for informing the design and implementation of interfaces, but also for enabling more sophisticated interfaces capable of adapting to users. While the notion of engagement is actively being studied in a diverse set of domains, the term has been used to refer to a number of related, but different concepts. In fact it has been referred to across different disciplines under different names and with different connotations in mind. Therefore, it can be quite difficult to understand what the meaning of engagement is and how one study relates to another one accordingly. Engagement has been studied not only in human-human, but also in human-agent interactions i.e., interactions with physical robots and embodied virtual agents. In this overview article we focus on different factors involved in engagement studies, distinguishing especially between those studies that address task and social engagement, involve children and adults, are conducted in a lab or aimed for long term interaction. We also present models for detecting engagement and for generating multimodal behaviors to show engagement.

Schoolchildren's academic progress is known to be affected by the classroom environment. It is important for teachers and administrators to understand their pupils' status and how various factors in the classroom may affect them, as it can help them adjust pedagogical interventions and management styles. In this study, we expand a novel agent-based model of classroom interactions of our design, towards a more efficient model, enriched with further paramwhich we believe renders a more realistic setting. Specifically, we explore the effect of disruptive neighbours and teacher control. The dataset used for the design of our model consists of 65,385 records, which represent 3,315 classes in 2007, from 2,040 schools in the UK.

“…For example, Scrivner et al [7] study the use of augmented reality as a teaching tool to improve student learning and teaching. Subramainan et al [8] argue that students with high motivation tend to enhance their learning outcomes and propose an emotional based model, which they animate using agent based social simulation. In this way, they manage to measure the student engagement levels and the emotions of the lecturer and students.…”

We propose an optimization model to tackle the problem of determining how projects are assigned to student groups based on a bidding procedure. In order to improve student experience in project-based learning we resort to actively involving them in a transparent and unbiased project allocation process. To evaluate our work, we collected information about the students' own views on how our approach influenced their level of learning and overall learning experience and provide a detailed analysis of the results. The results of our evaluation show that the large majority of students (i.e., 91%) increased or maintained their satisfaction ratings with the proposed procedure after the assignment was concluded, as compared to their attitude towards the process before the project assignment occurred.
