Idea Description

The use of social robots as a teaching aid can be a critical step in enhancing student learning. Compared with non-adaptive interfaces, the literature shows that user interfaces with adaptive behavior improved user acceptance and increased educational effectiveness. The aim of this project is to enable "Furhat Social Robot" to deliver adaptive instruction to general education diploma students and undergraduate students in the Sultanate of Oman. To do this, it is necessary to first align the robot's logic with the course content and then intelligently adapt the robot's teaching strategies based on students' performance. Where the robot "Furhat" was designed in Sweden, and it is a social robot that interacts with the person as humans interact with each other through hearing, looking, speaking, and expressing feelings. It is also characterized by several features, including the multiplicity of personalities for more than 22 personalities ranging between different classes and ages, the multiplicity and change of voices for more than 200 voices, the multiplicity of languages ​​used to speak more than 35 languages around the world, and it is also characterized by the representation of expressions similar to a real person.
