Social robots are widely used for educational activities, especially to attract children's attention. As a side effect, pupils' excitement can suppress their focus on the tutors and the content being approached. A potential solution to tackle this issue is ...

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 ...

Parental Training is a methodology where therapists teach caregivers how to train their kids in specific behaviors practicing. It can be used in verbal behavior acquisition for childrenwith autismmediated by the parents. In this paper, we are presenting an ...

Maintaining a proper body posture during interactions with educational tablet applications is crucial for children's physical well-being and task performance, especially considering digital tablet's increasingly pervasive use in classrooms. In this work we ...

The success of social robots, even (or, especially) in use cases as simple as "manning" a booth to promote a product in a shopping mall, depends on their ability of interacting with humans in a timely, effective and enjoyable way. In this paper we present ...

This year's conference theme "HRI for all" not just raises the importance of reflecting on how to promote inclusion for every type of user but also calls for careful consideration of the different layers of people potentially impacted by such systems. In e ...

Research on social assistive robots in education faces many challenges that extend beyond technical issues. On one hand, hardware and software limitations, such as algorithm accuracy in real-world applications, render this approach difficult for daily use. ...

Generative AI technologies are increasingly being incorporated into creativity support tools. However, most generative AI tools rely on text-based prompting, requiring users to translate visual ideas into linguistic descriptions. This approach is misaligne ...

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 ...

we were captivated by the opportunities and challenges of integrating robots into education, and collectively, we shared a deep enthusiasm for their potential to revolutionize social robotics in meaningful ways. ...

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 ...

Parental Training is a methodology where therapists teach caregivers how to train their kids in specific behaviors practicing. It can be used in verbal behavior acquisition for children with autism mediated by the parents. In this paper, we are presenting ...

Reading is an essential skill that plays a crucial role in education, and it involves mastering various sub-skills, such as decoding tokens and acquiring phonological awareness. Research indicates that practising music in an educational setting can enhance ...

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 ...

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 ...

In the rapidly evolving landscape of education, the integration of technology and innovative pedagogical approaches has become imperative to engage learners efectively. Our workshop aimed to delve into the intersection of technology, cognitive psychology, ...

This paper describes the first steps of an ongoing participatory design with teachers from Switzerland to co-create Human-Robot Interaction setups for integrating children with migration history. The herein presented phase had two main goals: (i) initially ...

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 ...

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 ...
