Using Kinect to Track Learning Behavior of Students in the Classroom as Video Portfolio to Enhance Reflection Learning

Abstract

We propose a novel approach to produce video portfolios in the classroom, allowing student’s whole body, which was captured by a Microsoft Kinect appear in a rich and context-sensitive background. The purpose of the study was to investigate this proposed system could impact on various learning style students' cognition and metacognition. The system makes the student have chance to examine and evaluate on one's own and then promotes metacognition. Experimental results indicated a variety of learning styles do affect the performance of learners, especially reflective and sense of style, metacognitive have a significant upgrade capacity by using the system.
