The role of emotion is crucial to the learning process, as it linked motivation, interest, and attention. Affective states are expressed in brain overall biological activity. Biosignals, like heart rate (HR), electrodermal activity (EDA), electroencephalography (EEG) physiological expressions affected by emotional state. Analyzing these biosignal recordings can point a person's Contemporary medical education has progressed extensively towards diverse resources using virtual reality (VR)...

Abstract Virtual reality has long existed, but its wider adoption in education is recent. Studies informed by theoretical underpinned co-creation frameworks and utilization of evaluations are scarce literature. Thus, this study internationally evaluated the efficacy three virtual reusable e-resources (VRReRs), co-created based on ASPIRE framework, for teaching clinical skills to university students. The followed a mixed-methods approach, combining SUS, SUS Presence Questionnaire, TAM, UTAUT2...

Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and games set a new domain in understanding people’s motivations gaming, behavioral implications of game play, adaptation to player preferences needs for increased engaging experiences the context HCI serious (HCI-SGs). When latter relate with health status, they can become part their daily life as assistive status monitoring/enhancement systems. Co-designing HCI-SGs be seen combination art science that involves meticulous collaborative process. The design...

Being the second most common neurodegenerative disease, Parkinson's Disease (PD) can be symptomatically treated; though, unfortunately, it cannot cured yet. Moreover, diagnosing and assessing PD patients is a complex process, requiring continuous monitoring. In this vein, design, development validation of innovative Assessment Tools may helpful in management with PD, particular. Based on intelligent ICT interventions, i-PROGNOSIS project intends to mitigate PD's specific symptoms, such as,...
