摘要：This study proposes an agent-based evaluation model of students’ emotional engagement in a classroom. The proposed model consists of four main elements in a classroom which are, the selected strategy to control engagement, the engagement level of students, the emotional state of a lecturer, and the emotional states of students. The process starts with a lecturer selecting a strategy, which in turn influences the students’ emotional state. By utilizing the three variables, students’ misbehaviors, motivation, and participation, the engagement level of students is measured that eventually influences the lecturer’s emotion either positively or negatively. If negatively, the lecturer proposes another strategy that would trigger the students’ emotions and eventually improves the students’ engagement level. We simulate our model to validate the applicability and functionality of the model. The simulation result shows a promising application to simulate a classroom environment with very flexible settings that leads to results in less time and cost. It also shows to be widely utilized by researchers in the field of social studies for further investigation of the problem of students’ engagement by conducting experiments and report the results.
