D 1.1

This deliverable reports on the meeting of the Atgentive consortium on "Advanced support for attention in collaborative learning settings" which took place in Paris on January 23 and 24. The reader can find here both a summary of the discussions that took place and the collection of papers and presentations offered by several partners during that meeting.

D 1.2

This deliverable reviews the state of the art of research related to the support of attention in systems for collaboration and learning. It presents the most relevant results in attention-related research in cognitive psychology. It introduces systems that have been designed with the explicit aim of supporting some attentional processes. It provides an overview of the specific issues related to the support of attention in educational, work, and business environments. Finally, it describes the issues and technologies related to psychophysiological measurements of attention, and to the integration of embodied agents in attention-aware systems.

D 4.1

This document sets out the approach and methodology for the evaluation aspect of AtGentive. It begins with the formative work carried out to date and that planned for the coming months, as this has a bearing on future evaluative work. It then outlines the planned summative evaluation, due to commence in the second year, and describes the development thus far of the Key Indicators that will form the basis of the summative evaluation. It concludes with a note on the final strategic evaluation.

D 6.2

Whiles it is too early at this stage to make some collective exploitation plans, the collaboration already existing between the different partners (La Cantoche and Ondeknet; INSEAD and STC, etc.), the good complementarity of the partners, and the strong presence of educational bodies operating in different markets (no competition), open the possibility of the establishment of several lines of collective exploitation of the results, both from a scientific perspective (co-authoring of publication), a technical perspective (collaboration in the further evaluation of the prototypes), and marketing perspectives (educational market).

D 2.1

This first step will consist in the definition of the internal architecture of the attentive agent (including components for the detection of the user attention, attention reasoning, intervention, and user interface via artificial characters), and the definition of an interface for embedding it in a digital environment.

D 1.3

This deliverable analyses attention in learning and collaboration with the aim of defining a theoretical framework capable of representing the wide range of attentional processes that one may want to support within learning and collaboration environment. The analysis aims at being exhaustive rather than selective: in future deliverables a small subset of this framework will be selected for possible implementation.

D 4.2

This document describes the formative evaluation (evaluation aimed at guiding and informing the design process) carried out within AtGentive to date. Formative evaluation for AtGentive primarily comprises the generation of feedback from experts and potential users, or their representatives, as to the effectiveness and desirability of proposed interventions. The proposal and design of such interventions begins with the concepts and models developed within the AtGentive Conceptual Framework and is continued and elaborated as part of the design process.
