In STEM domains, students are expected to acquire domain knowledge from visual representations that they may not yet be able to interpret. Such learning requires perceptual fluency: the ability to intuitively and rapidly see which concepts visuals show and to translate among multiple visuals. Instructional problems that engage students in…

In this paper, we describe the analysis of multimodal data collected on small collaborative learning groups. In a previous study, we asked pairs (N=84) with no programming experience to program a robot to solve a series of mazes. The quality of the dyad's collaboration was evaluated, and two interventions were implemented to support collaborative…

This work is a step towards full automation of auto-mentoring processes in multi-player online environments such as virtual internships. We focus on automatically identifying speaker's intentions, i.e. the speech acts of chat utterances, in such virtual internships. Particularly, we explore several machine learning methods to categorize speech…
