Hung-Yue Suen, Yu-Sheng Su

Nonverbal vocal expressions with positive valence and high arousal enhance student engagement in asynchronous video learning, while verbal emotive expressions do not.

Claims

C1strongest claim

Vocal expressions with positive valence and high arousal, such as happiness and surprise, enhanced engagement, while negative high-arousal emotions, such as anger, reduced it. Verbal emotive expressions did not significantly impact engagement.

C2weakest assumption

The computational acoustic and sentiment analysis tools accurately classify teachers' intended vocal emotions and that student self-reports after class reliably measure affective engagement caused by those expressions rather than other video factors.

C3one line summary

Nonverbal vocal emotions with positive valence and high arousal like happiness and surprise increase student affective engagement in MOOC videos while anger decreases it, but verbal expressions show no significant effect.
