Reflection Support System with Audience Robots for Presentation Practice

Abstract

During a presentation, an effective presenter will modify his/her own presentation style by observing the audience's reaction. To hone this skill, we have developed an audience robot that reacts according to the presenter's presentation style. The objective of this study is to propose a system that supports self-reflection after presentation practice with an audience robot, To modify the presentation style, the presenter needs to understand how the audience's psychological state corresponds to each reaction and what presentation style the presenter should adopt to modify the audience's psychological state. In addition. he/she needs to utilize this knowledge at the appropriate time, Therefore. during reflection, the presenter should evaluate whether he/she has such knowledge and whether he/she can utilize it. This study constructs a system that visualizes the presentation data graphically to represent each evaluation item clearly for effective consideration.
