| Abstract | Interactive Digital TeleVision (IDTV) is emerging as a potentially important medium for learning at home. This paper presents a novel affective-aware tutoring platform for IDTV which makes use of automatic facial emotion recognition to improve the tutor-student relationship. The system goes further than simply broadcasting an interactive educational application by allowing the personalization of the course content. The tutor can easily access academic information relating to the students and also emotional information captured from learners’ facial expressions. In this way, depending on their academic and affective progress, the tutor can send personal messages or extra educational contents for improving students’ learning. In order to include these features it was necessary to address some important technical challenges derived from IDTV hardware and software restrictions. The system has been successfully tested with real students and tutors in a non-laboratory environment. Our system tries to advance in the challenge of providing to distance learning systems with the perceptual abilities of human teachers with the final aim of improving students learning experience and outcome. Nevertheless, there is still relatively little understanding of the impact of affect on students’ behaviour and learning and of the dynamics of affect during learning with software. Systems like ours would make it possible to attack these relevant open questions. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
