Multimodal Interaction Technologies for Training Affective Social Skills
This book focuses on how interactive, multimodal technology such as virtual agents can be used in training and treatment (social skills training, cognitive behavioral therapy). People with socio-affective deficits have difficulties controlling their social behavior and also suffer from interpreting others’ social behavior. Behavioral training, such as social skills training, is used in clinical settings. Patients are trained by a coach to experience social interaction and reduce social stress. In addition to behavioral training, cognitive behavioral therapy is also useful for understanding better and training social-affective interaction. All these methods are effective but expensive and difficult to access. This book describes how multimodal interactive technology can be used in healthcare for measuring and training social-affective interactions. Sensing technology analyzes users’ behaviors and eye-gaze, and various machine learning methods can be used for prediction tasks. This bookfocuses on analyzing human behaviors and implementing training methods (e.g., by virtual agents, virtual reality, dialogue modeling, personalized feedback, and evaluations). Target populations include depression, schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorder, and a much larger group of social pathological phenomena.

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced companies, institutions, citizens, and students to rapidly change their behaviors and use virtual technologies to perform their usual working tasks. Though virtual technologies for learning were already present in most universities, the pandemic has forced virtual technologies to lead the way in order to continue teaching and learning for students and faculty around the world. Universities and teachers had to quickly adjust everything from their curriculum to their teaching styles in order to adapt to an online learning environment. Online learning is a complex issue and one that comes with both challenges and opportunities; there is plenty of room for growth, and further study is required to better understand how to improve online education. The Handbook of Research on Developing a Post-Pandemic Paradigm for Virtual Technologies in Higher Education is a comprehensive reference book that presents the testimonials of teachers and students with various degrees of experience with distance learning and their utilization of current virtual tools and applications for learning, as well as the impact of these technologies and their potential future use. With topics ranging from designing an online learning course to discussing group work in an online environment, this book is ideal for teachers, educational software developers, IT consultants, instructional designers, administrators, professors, researchers, lecturers, students, and all those who are interested in learning more about distance learning and all the positive and negative aspects that accompany it.
Handbook of Research on Instructional Systems and Technology
"This book provides information on different styles of instructional design methodologies, tips, and strategies on how to use technology to facilitate active learning and techniques to help faculty and researchers develop online instructional and teaching materials. It enables libraries to provide a foundational reference for researchers, educators, administrators, and others in the context of instructional systems and technology"--Provided by publisher.
