       Workshop on Feedback from
     Multimodal Interactions in Learning
       Management Systems (FFMI)
Virtually all learning management systems and tutoring systems provide feedback to
learners based on their time spent within the system, the number, intensity and type of
tasks worked on and past performance with these tasks and corresponding skills.
Some systems even use this information to steer the learning process by interventions
such as recommending specific next tasks to work on, providing hints etc. Often the
analysis of learner / system interactions is limited to these high-level interactions, and
does not make good use of all the information available in much richer interaction types
such speech and video. In the workshop Feedback from Multimodal Interactions in
Learning Management Systems (FFMI@EDM’2014) we wanted to bring together
researchers and practitioners who are interested in developing data-driven feedback
and intervention mechanisms based on rich, multimodal interactions of learners within
learning management systems, and among learners providing mutual advice and help.
We aim at discussing all stages of the process, starting from preprocessing raw sensor
data, automatic recognition of affective states to learning to identify salient features in
these interactions that provide useful cues to steer feedback and intervention strategies
and leading to adaptive and personalized learning management systems. The
contributions presented in this workshop range from work about affect recognition in
intelligent tutoring systems to research questions from online learning and collaborative
learning.
