Research and design E-learning based on cognition and emotion

The improvement of design for a better E-learning system based on cognition and emotion is proposed in this paper. Some theories including cognitive science, artificial emotion, artificial psychology theories and multimedia design principles based on emotion & cognitive theories are used for this design. Then the emotion cognition model of E-learning system is researched and builded. Through comparing retention test and transfer test, three typical student scenarios are defined as E-learning assessment strategies. The customizable learning paths are intelligently adjusted according to students´ demonstrated interests, emotional status and learning capabilities by the navigation module in this E-learning design. This E-learning system design will significantly improve the quality of online education and study.
