Development of Intelligent Learning Tool for Improving Foreign Language Skills Based on EEG and Eye tracker

Abstract

Recently, there has been tremendous development in education contents for foreign language learning. Based on these trends, IT has provided educational contents development using e-learning and broadcast media. But conventional educational contents are non-interactive presents an impediment to provide user's specific service. To develop a user friendly language education tool, we propose an intelligent learning tool based on user's eye movement and brain waves. By analyzing these features, the proposed system detects if the given word is known or unknown to the user while learning a foreign language. Then it searches its meaning and provides a vocabulary list of unknown words to users in real time. The proposed model provides a tool which enables self-directed learning. We assume that the proposed system can improve users' learning achievements and satisfaction.
