Abstract

In Japanese public elementary schools, every pupil may use an ICT device individually and simultaneously. In the cases, a few teachers must teach all pupils. For being welcomed from a teacher, the ICT devices must help pupils to use the ICT devices by itself for effective usage, and it must help the teacher to use the ICT devices in a class. For help the users, the ICT devices must understand the state of the user. For help the teacher, it must estimate the users’ profile from the recorded users’ activities. This paper proposes a method to recognize the reading activity of a user with read aloud voices and the profile of a user with operational records. The proposed method is implemented. Experiments confirm the performances for measuring the reading activity of a user and for recognizing a user’s profile of reading activities.
