Lecture notes are important for students to review and understand the key points in the class. Unfortunately, the students often miss or lose part of the lecture notes. In this paper, we design and implement an infrared sensor based system,…
Live and pre-recorded video tutorials are an effective means for teaching physical skills such as cooking or prototyping electronics. A dedicated cameraperson following an instructor's activities can improve production quality. However,…
Compared with traditional face-to-face teaching, online learning is more convenient. However, during online classes, it is more difficult for teachers to observe all student reactions at the same time. Our system is designed to help…
Institutions all over the world are continuously exploring ways to use ICT in improving teaching and learning effectiveness. The use of course web pages, discussion groups, bulletin boards, and e-mails have shown considerable impact on…
Teachers in conventional classrooms often ask learners to express themselves and show their thought processes by speaking out loud, drawing on a whiteboard, or even using physical objects. Despite the pedagogical value of such activities,…
The flipped classroom has become famous as an effective educational method that flips the purpose of classroom study and homework. In this paper, we propose a video learning system for flipped classrooms, called Response Collector, which…
Everyday, more and more people are turning to online learning, which has altered our traditional classroom method. Recording lectures has always been a normal task for online educators, and it has lately become even more important during…
Recently, multiple applications of machine learning have been introduced. They include various possibilities arising when image analysis methods are applied to, broadly understood, video streams. In this context, a novel tool, developed for…
In this paper, we make an important step towards the black-box machine teaching by considering the cross-space machine teaching, where the teacher and the learner use different feature representations and the teacher can not fully observe…
Assistive technology is a prerequisite for making a high-quality lecture video. It is therefore imperative to edit the lecture video after recording. In this study, we aim to reduce the cumbersome task of lecture video editing by developing…
Over the last decade, e-learning has revolutionized how students learn by providing them access to quality education whenever and wherever they want. However, students often get distracted because of various reasons, which affect the…
The aim of the work presented in this paper is to develop and evaluate an integrated system that provides automated lecture style evaluation, allowing teachers to get instant feedback related to the goodness of their lecturing style. The…
The recent advances in artificial intelligence and deep learning facilitate automation in various applications including home automation, smart surveillance systems, and healthcare among others. Human Activity Recognition is one of its…
Camera control has been actively studied in text or image conditioned video generation tasks. However, altering camera trajectories of a given video remains under-explored, despite its importance in the field of video creation. It is…
Flipped learning is a method that flips in/out class activities to make lectures learner-centered. In flipped learning, comments from learners on preparation material are useful information for instructors to consider before deciding…
In this paper, we present an efficient method to incrementally learn to classify static hand gestures. This method allows users to teach a robot to recognize new symbols in an incremental manner. Contrary to other works which use special…
Nonverbal communication, in particular eye contact, is a critical element of the music classroom, shown to keep students on task, coordinate musical flow, and communicate improvisational ideas. Unfortunately, this nonverbal aspect to…
We study the problem of inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) with the added twist that the learner is assisted by a helpful teacher. More formally, we tackle the following algorithmic question: How could a teacher provide an informative…
Instant e-Teaching is a new concept that supplements e-Teaching and e-Learning environment in providing a full and comprehensive modern education styles. The e-Learning technology depicts the concept of enabling self-learning among students…
Recording lectures is a normal task for online educators, and a graphics tablet is a great tool for that. However, it is very expensive for many instructors. In this paper, we propose an alternative called "DIY Graphics Tab" that functions…
