dc.description.abstract | In this paper we want to build a learning website’s robotic agent for freshman studying. It can help freshman manage and notify their studying information.
During the design process, we improve our system continually according to the interview with freshman students. We hope the final functions of product which can satisfy user’s need, and we record our experience during our design process for others who want to follow us to build the same system.
Finally, a serial experiment is conducted with five freshman students after implementation of our system. Experiment results indicate that freshman students have higher willing to use our system, and will make long-term relationship with our system. We use a computer to connect our robot to give it more functions, like chatting, nonverbal communication, and humanoid motions. In the experiment about notifying studying information for freshman student, experiment results indicate using robot has more efficient than using short message of mobile phone. During the interaction process between robot and freshman students, our system also can increase the opportunity let freshman students to chat with teacher assistant more.
In addition, freshman students think it is funny about the small talk that robot has, and we also find freshman students pay much attention to the practical of studying aids about our system. In the future work, it can be a another interesting research in subject’s age。 | en_US |
