Epimopilot : An LLM-infused Epistemic Emotion Support System to Boost Self-regulated Asynchronous Online Video Learning

Self-regulated learning through asynchronous online videos lacks direct social-emotional interactions, often resulting in isolated learning experiences. We present Epimopilot, a system transforming emotional cues from time-synchronized comments (danmaku) into personified virtual companions to create a sense of communi…

GenRole: Personalizing Role Play for Educators Supporting Autistic Students’ Social Interaction Learning

Role-play is widely used to empower autistic children to explore social interaction and dynamics on their own terms, navigating neurotypical social conventions to shape social expressions in ways that align with their own traits and needs, fostering a stronger sense of agency. However, existing approaches typically re…

Exploring Aggressors’ In‑Match Cognitive and Emotional Formation and Toxic Behavior Trajectories in MOBA Games

Toxic behavior in Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) games has become a major issue. While previous studies have examined factors influencing toxic behavior, few have captured the cognitive and emotional states of the aggressors at the point of emergence of toxic behavior, or traced its evolution across an entire…

Redesign of Online Design Communities: Facilitating Personalized Visual Design Learning with Structured Comments

Online Design Communities (ODCs) offer various artworks with members' comments for beginners to learn visual design. However, as identified by our Formative Study (N = 10), current ODCs lack features customized for personal learning purposes, e.g., searching artworks and digesting useful comments to learn design princ…

LitLinker: Supporting the Ideation of Interdisciplinary Contexts with Large Language Models for Teaching Literature in Elementary Schools

Teaching literature under interdisciplinary contexts (e.g., science, art) that connect reading materials has become popular in elementary schools. However, constructing such contexts is challenging as it requires teachers to explore substantial amounts of interdisciplinary content and link it to the reading materials.…

Towards Human-AI Deliberation: Design and Evaluation of LLM-Empowered Deliberative AI for AI-Assisted Decision-Making

Traditional AI-assisted decision-making systems often provide fixed recommendations that users must either accept or reject entirely, limiting meaningful interaction—especially in cases of disagreement. To address this, we introduce Human-AI Deliberation, an approach inspired by human deliberation theories that enable…

ACKnowledge: A Computational Framework for Human Compatible Affordance-based Interaction Planning in Real-world Contexts

Intelligent agents coexisting with humans often need to interact with human-shared objects in environments. Thus, agents should plan their interactions based on objects' affordances and the current situation to achieve acceptable outcomes. How to support intelligent agents' planning of affordance-based interactions co…
