Involvement measurement through head pose estimation

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Several decades of research clearly demonstrate that high-quality, developmentally appropriate, early childhood programs produce short and long-term positive effects on children’s cognitive and social development. The maintenance of high quality education processes and methodologies demand a rigor- ous process for improvement, guided through observation, reflection and consequent action. Typically, teachers will pay attention to the evolution of learning within the child, namely, on how the child is feeling and acting when dealing with a specific activity. This information, obtained through a detailed and thorough observation procedure, is based on mea- suring the child’s involvement. In fact, research with the Leuven Involvement Scale has shown that the levels of children’s involvement are a predictor of learning quality. An involved child gets extremely fas- cinated and absorbed by the activity he is performing. There are several indicators that can be used to assess children involvement, such as concentration, energy, complexity and creativity, facial expression and posture, persistence, precision, reaction time, language and satisfaction. Traditionally, the teacher will record the observation.
