How to Model an Engaging Online Quiz? The Emotion Modeling Approach

Abstract

The article focuses on software technology used to provide a more engaging and exciting learning environment for students by introducing a variety of quizzes. Presently, quiz development can range from simple multiple-choice questions, true or false, drag-and-drop, dropdown menu selections, to 3D interactive techniques. This study introduces a systematic way of creating an engaging application using emotion modeling. Emotion models are being introduced in order to collect and model the systems’ meaningful emotional needs. According to the findings, agent-oriented modeling is capable of modeling the emotional requirements of a system and of transforming these into a specific solution enabling to rapidly prototype an engaging system. A quantitative study has been performed on the novel approach to determine the feasibility of the proposed methodology in terms of analyzing, designing, and developing engaging applications. Keywords—emotion modeling, agent-oriented modeling, learning technology.
