A conceptual emotion-based model to improve students engagement in a classroom using agent-based social simulation

Students' emotional engagement in classrooms has always been regarded as a crucial factor influencing educational outcomes. Emotionally-engaged students are highly motivated to attend classes and participate actively in discussions. Conversely, emotionally-disengaged students are habitual truan...
