Abstract

Learning difficulties amongst postgraduate students have been cited as one of the most neglected problems. Eye tracking plays an important role in gathering data about how students interact with the learning material. This paper proposes a new approach of using high speed eye tracking equipment and fast computer monitors to collect the necessary gaze contingent eye fixation data of the Japanese English language learners. Heat maps and eye-gaze patterns generated during the preliminary experiments help inform the methods used to teach English reading. As such this research has the ability to shape the development of the next generation learning technologies based on computational models of eye movements during reading.
