Paper Abstract:
|
One mean of obtaining information on the Web, which complements or replaces other forms of access, is with the use of Chatterbots. To use this technology, several factors must be considered in its development, especially when oriented at children, such as choice of technology, design and assemble knowledge in a database, with the help of many professionals of different areas to understand and adapt the system. In this work, we emphasized the development of a Virtual Learning Companion, calling Buti, to provide information of healthy lifestyle for children and preteens, which have similar cognitive development, but are differently from adults. Initially, the systems interaction was created taking in consideration the existing systems, which have a passive characteristic, centering the interaction from the user to the system. From tests carried through the help of psychologist and taking in consideration the relation with the concepts of the human development defended by theoreticians of the education area, we verified the necessity of adjustments in the systems interaction for this public. Complementary to this modification, the use of Affective Computing was made; applying personality and emotion, in order to obtain a better relationship between system and user. |
