Scientists have identified the part of the brain that teachers use to detect when their pupils do not understand what they are being taught.
Researchers found that a brain region called the anterior cingulate cortex picks up how mistaken students are.
They say their findings provide significant insight into the brain processes that allow a teacher to understand a student's learning.
They also found that other regions of the frontal lobe play important roles.
Educational Natural Language Processing (e-NLP) aims at
finding new applications of Natural Language Processing for educational purposes, and developing new techniques and software taking into account the specific needs in the educational domain.
We especially focus on NLP applications for eLearning 2.0, which is characterized by a worldwide learning community where educational material is produced both by students and teachers. This brings about new challenges for NLP since the amount of user-generated discourse and social media content such as wikis and blogs is constantly growing and requires intelligent automatic processing.
