Adaptive Self-Assessment Trying to Reduce Fear
Anastasios A. Economides, Christos N. Moridis · 2008
Almost everyone has experienced fear at least once in their life because of a test. Fear can positively mobilise students, when it is under control. However, when fear becomes excessive, it can completely destroy students' performance. Moreover, when dealing with a computerised test, fear can have an even more intense influence on students. The objective of this paper is to analyze about these issues and to propose an adaptive self-assessment system for reducing fear and supporting students' learning during the preparation for exams.
