Quantitative analysis of the correlation between body posture quality assessment scores and handwriting quality measures

Pierre Dillenbourg, Chenyang Wang, Barbara Bruno, Daniel Carnieto Tozadore

Various technological applications for body posture correction have been proposed in order to improve handwriting or facilitate its learning for children, under the assumption that a better posture promotes better handwriting. However, very little research ...

The Child-Robot Relational Norm Intervention to Promote Correct Handwriting Posture for Children

Pierre Dillenbourg, Chenyang Wang, Barbara Bruno, Daniel Carnieto Tozadore

Persuasive social robots have the ability to influence human behaviour through social interaction, which makes them a valuable technological solution for all applications aiming to support a person's behaviour change. The recently proposed Child-Robot Rela ...

Learning by Teaching: Designing Teachable Agents to Support Children's Pronunciation Skill Learning

Pierre Dillenbourg, Chenyang Wang

Pronunciation is a critical yet challenging aspect of language acquisition, especially for children. In this work, we propose a new teachable agent system designed to support children's pronunciation learning through a Learning-by-Teaching paradigm to addr ...

Co-designing a Child-Robot Relational Norm Intervention to Regulate Children's Handwriting Posture

Pierre Dillenbourg, Chenyang Wang, Daniel Carnieto Tozadore

Persuasive social robots employ their social influence to modulate children's behaviours in child-robot interaction. In this work, we introduce the Child-Robot Relational Norm Intervention (CRNI) model, leveraging the passive role of social robots and chil ...

The iReCheck project: using tablets and robots for personalised handwriting practice

Pierre Dillenbourg, Chenyang Wang, Barbara Bruno, David Cohen, Daniel Carnieto Tozadore

Handwriting is an important skill in children development as well as in education that take years to be mastered. While keyboards and similar technological devices increasingly become more popular, new tools and engaging approaches are also required to kee ...

Unobtrusively Regulating Children’s Posture via Slow Visual Stimuli on Tablets

Pierre Dillenbourg, Chenyang Wang, Barbara Bruno, Daniel Carnieto Tozadore

Children’s retention of a proper body posture while interacting with educational tablet applications is important for both their physical health and task performance. In this work, we propose a new approach to unobtrusively induce postural changes in child ...

Productive breaks in mentally challenging tasks: Comparing free-time pauses to stretching sessions guided by a social robot

Chenyang Wang, Tanguy Hector Lewko, Daniel Carnieto Tozadore

Performing breaks during long periods of mentally demanding activities is a simple and effective solution to briefly rest the brain and regain concentration. Furthermore, the way we use this break time may have different impacts on the task outcomes. Socia ...

Immediate effects of short-duration wellbeing practices on children’s handwriting and posture guided by a social robot

Pierre Dillenbourg, Chenyang Wang, Barbara Bruno, Daniel Carnieto Tozadore, Melike Cezayirlioglu

Handwriting practising, as any other repetitive task, often leads the practiser to an overconcentration state where their performance might be affected by postural and mental fatigue. Short breaks to perform unrelated activities, especially relaxation exer ...

A game-based approach for evaluating and customizing handwriting training using an autonomous social robot

Pierre Dillenbourg, Chenyang Wang, Barbara Bruno, Daniel Carnieto Tozadore

Handwriting learning is a long and complex process that takes about ten years to be fully mastered. Nearly one-third of all children aged 4-12 experiences handwriting difficulties and, sadly, most of them are left to fight them on their own, due to the sca ...
