This paper proposes a platform which allows to evaluate the performance of an Embodied Conversational Agent and the influence of several distinct multimedia elements. Using the “Imitation Game” as described by Alan Turing as a starting point and motivation, the platform allows the configuration of several features which influence the Virtual environment. Through a series of user tests and surveys...
This paper presents the architecture that supports the collaborative model ACEM (Advanced Collaborative Educational Model) to assist educators in the collaborative design of learning activities, supported by a high-level graphical tool. ACEM embraces the research areas of Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) and Learning Design (LD). Some facilities are considered in order to implement the online...
