User Modelling and Adaptive, Natural Interaction for Conflict Resolution

摘要

Modern school environments are usually populated with children from diverse ethnic, cultural and social backgrounds, bringing in different social norms and skills, diverse behaviours and often contradicting cooperation strategies. As a result, conflicts are inevitable and should be resolved as quickly and painlessly as possible, making sure that school life and the learning process continue as intended. The Siren serious game aims to educate 10-14 year old students on conflict management and resolution, presenting them with user- and culture-adaptive mini game scenarios, based on popular game genres and taking into account their affective expressivity and in-game behaviour to adjust the intensity of the conflict to better suit their needs and competencies.
