Abstract | Social robots can be used to tutor children in one-on-one interactions. It would be most beneficial for these robots to adapt their behavior to suit the individual learning needs of children. Each child is different; they learn at their own pace and respond better to certain types of feedback and exercises. Furthermore, being able to detect various affective signals during an interaction with a social robot would allow the robot to adaptively change its behavior to counter negative affective states that occur during learning, such as confusion or boredom. This type of adaptive behavior based on perceived signals from the child (such as facial expressions, body posture, etc.) will create more effective tutoring interactions between the robot and child. We propose that a robotic tutoring system that can leverage both affective signals as well as progress through a learning task will lead to greater engagement and learning gains from the child in a one-on-one tutoring interaction. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
