项目摘要

This project focuses on methods to assist learners in learning by discussion through computer network. We investigated effect of exchanging information against learners' attitude towards discussion by experiments, and proposed a tool for cooperative learning that visualizes contents of discussion from different viewpoints. We also proposed a method of promoting discussion by introducing pseudo learner agents.We investigated effects of expressions of participants, effects of feedback of eye movement by a remote control camera and roles of a common work field against learners' attitudes. As a result, we found that feedback of eye movement by a monitor increases learners feeling about existence of opponents, and a common work field to share materials is important for discussion.Learning by discussion improves learner's understanding about topics by interaction with each other. During this process, learners need to grasp similarity and difference between opinions and to grasp development of discussion. Thinking about streams of discussion and causes of participants' changes of opinions etc. after the discussion is also useful to improve discussion skills. We developed a discussion tool that visualizes structure of discussion and changes of opinions etc. in order to assist these kinds of learning. We evaluated the effectiveness of the tool by experiment.We proposed a method to activate discussion by introducing pseudo leamer agents. The agent doesn't understand meanings of discussion but it gets causal relations between utterances from the discussion tool.The roles of the agent are to introduce leamers of few utterances into discussion and to pay attention to buried opinions by using these relations.

该项目着重于通过计算机网络通过讨论来帮助学习者学习的方法。我们调查了通过实验交换信息反对学习者对讨论的态度的效果，并提出了一种合作学习的工具，从不同的角度来看讨论内容。我们还提出了一种通过引入伪学习者的代理来促进讨论的方法。我们研究了参与者表达的影响，远程控制摄像机对眼动运动的反馈以及对学习者态度的共同工作领域的作用。结果，我们发现，监视器对眼睛运动的反馈会增加学习者对对手存在的感觉，而共享材料的共同工作领域对于讨论很重要。通过讨论，通过互相互动来提高学习者对主题的理解。在此过程中，学习者需要掌握观点之间的相似性和差异，并掌握讨论的发展。考虑讨论的讨论流以及参与者的意见变化等的原因。讨论之后，也有助于提高讨论技能。我们开发了一种讨论工具，该工具可视化讨论的结构和意见等的变化，以帮助这些学习。我们通过实验评估了该工具的有效性。我们提出了一种通过引入伪液体代理来激活讨论的方法。代理商不了解讨论的含义，但它在讨论工具中会发生因果关系。代理人的作用是将很少的话语的私人者介绍给讨论，并通过使用这些关系来关注埋藏的意见。
