Designers of Different Cognitive Styles Editing E-Learning Materials Studied by Monitoring Physiological and Other Data Simultaneously

At the Corvinus University of Budapest, a series of experiments was performed, applying the INTERFACE testing methodology developed by researchers of the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. This methodology is capable of recording data characterizing the user's current mental effort derived from Heart Period Variability (HPV) and the user's emotional state indicated by Skin Conductance (SC) parameterssimultaneously and synchronized with other characteristics of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). The current experiments aim to study how the teachers (electronic curriculum designers, developers) themselves use the e-learning development tools to design and edit a new piece of e-learning material.
