CHAPTER I

PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

Introduction
Attentiveness is crucial for students' academic learning. It is detected by artificial
intelligence that the students are attentive to their learning. It recommends using AI to track
students' emotions and attention in addition to their academic success (Medha M., Luqman,
Fady, Munkhjargal, 2022). However, attentiveness is observing the needs and meeting them,
based on an application that can detect them (Maglio, Campbell, Barrett, & Selker, 2001). The
majority of people who are attentive are always engaged, paying attention, and paying close
attention, especially when being unattentive would require them to focus on other things that
would distract them from being attentive to vital things. Nevertheless, researchers can find out
about the students' inattentiveness by using artificial intelligence that can detect it.
Observing the facial expressions of the students and identifying their attentiveness using a
detectable learning model so that the excellence of the students' learning can be performed
(Tasnia, Andrew, & Pradipta, 2020). Also, sleepiness is one of the problems, so the student is not
attentive, so an examination of the student's facial expression is conducted to determine if the
student is listening or if his attention is on the blackboard or not (Nirmal, Saeed, Thanmay, &
Gurusamy, 2020). Nevertheless, we researchers will implement artificial intelligence that can
detect if a student is attentive.
Attentiveness in the Philippines is recognized by using three methods to monitor the
students attention, because their attentiveness is the key to successful learning (Jennalyn N.,
Moises F., Nino U., Honeylet D. & Dennis P., 2020). Monitoring students helps to continuously
enhance students' learning. In other words, this study aims to find out if the student can learn
anything once this AI is developed.
Detecting the students' inattentiveness using artificial intelligence is a problem because they
do not pay attention, and we can easily be aware because we can easily know if the students are
inattentive. We all know that there are students who are distracted by other things, but we don't
know that quickly because of the number of students. So, we made a way to make it easier to
know and read the personalities of the students or their movements. In this study, researchers use
a software application powered by artificial intelligence to detect students.
This research is all about students attentiveness to enhance their learning. This study is also
aimed at detecting if the students are inattentive, so we can easily know if there are those who do
not give focus and instead focus on something else.

Background of the Study


In this paper we will use Artificial Intelligence in a software to monitor whether they are
attentiveness or inattentiveness. We conducted our research to avoid a student's poor
performance and so that he can keep up with what is being taught to him.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) aspires towards providing adequate intelligence to computers so
they can think and act in responses, similar to the human being. Unlike computers, humans can
learn from their experience which enables them to make intellectual decisions according to their
individual circumstances. On the other hand, computers have to follow man-made algorithms to
accomplish the required task. Artificial Intelligence aims to lessen this dissimilarity between
computer and human by seeking innovative techniques to equip computers with intelligence and
enable them to act like human beings.
Weakness of AI into guessing attentiveness of the student so one of these is Personalized
Learning: Much attention is usually given to what students learn, with a historical tendency to
focus on curriculum. However, how a student learns is just as important. Advances in AI are
giving teachers a better understanding of how their students learn and allowing them to
customize the curriculum accordingly.
So we will use Artificial Intelligence to monitor the students whether they are listening or
not to what they are watching. Detect the student if he is not listening or if he is interested in
listening so we know what effect it will have on his studies. So we did our research to help and
find out the problem of why students become inattentive.

CHAPTER 2

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE & STUDIES

Introduction
Attention is a crucial factor in the learning process. Students who are attentive have a higher
likelihood of understanding and retaining the information being taught. However, it can be
challenging for teachers to monitor the attention levels of all their students, particularly in large
classrooms. This is where artificial intelligence (AI) can offer a solution.
AI can be utilized to develop software applications capable of detecting student
attentiveness. These applications can employ various methods to detect attention, including
facial recognition, eye tracking, and head position monitoring. By tracking these indicators, the
application can generate a real-time report of each student’s attention level.
Teachers can use this information to identify students who may be struggling to maintain
their attention. These students can then receive additional support to improve their attentiveness
and learning outcomes.
Our software application employs artificial intelligence deep learning techniques to detect
student attentiveness. Deep learning is a subset of machine learning that utilizes artificial neural
networks to learn from data. In our case, the neural network will learn from a dataset comprising
recordings of students in a classroom setting.
The neural network will be trained to recognize facial expressions, eye movements, and
head positions associated with attentiveness. Once trained, it will generate real-time reports of
each student’s attention level.
Teachers can use this information to identify students who may be struggling to maintain
their attention and provide them with additional support to improve their attentiveness and
learning outcomes.
Our study’s theoretical framework draws upon the work of Bandura (1977) and his social
learning theory. Bandura posits that learning is a social process that occurs through observation,
imitation, and reinforcement.
In the context of our study, we hypothesize that students can learn to become more attentive
by observing their attentive peers. Additionally, we believe that positive feedback from teachers
can reinforce students’ attentiveness.
Figure 1 presents our study’s conceptual framework. It illustrates how our software
application will detect student attentiveness and how teachers can use this information to
improve student learning outcomes.
Researchers and educators have shown great interest in using mobile applications and
artificial intelligence (AI) deep learning to detect student attentiveness. Recent studies have
demonstrated the potential of these tools to monitor students' attentiveness and enhance their
engagement in the learning process.
He et al. (2021) explored a method for detecting student attentiveness using a deep neural
network (DNN) model. They trained the model on a dataset of videos captured in a classroom
using a mobile phone. The researchers discovered that their DNN model was able to accurately
detect student attentiveness with an impressive accuracy of 87.5%.

Kaur et al. (2021) conducted a study where they utilized a mobile application to monitor
student attentiveness in an online classroom environment. They developed an app that employed
AI algorithms to detect facial expressions, eye movements, and head positions of students to
determine their level of attentiveness. The results indicated that the app was successful in
detecting students' attentiveness with an accuracy of 92.5%.
Jang et al. (2020) created a mobile application to measure the attention levels of students
during lectures. The app utilized a machine learning algorithm to analyze students' eye
movements and head positions, allowing it to gauge their level of attention. The findings
demonstrated that the app was effective in detecting students' attention levels with an accuracy of
86.4%.
Wang et al. (2019) conducted a study where they used a mobile application to measure
students' attentiveness in a classroom setting. The app employed a convolutional neural network
(CNN) to analyze facial expressions, eye movements, and head positions of students, enabling it
to determine their level of attentiveness. The authors found that their CNN model accurately
detected student attentiveness with an accuracy of 92%.

Liu et al. (2021) developed a mobile application that employed AI algorithms to monitor
student attentiveness in a blended learning environment. They used machine learning algorithms
to analyze students' behavior, such as typing speed, mouse clicks, and scroll movements, to
determine their level of attentiveness. The results indicated that the app was effective in
detecting students' attentiveness with an accuracy of 91.2%.
These studies suggest that mobile applications and AI deep learning algorithms have the
potential to be valuable tools for teachers and educators to monitor students' attentiveness and
enhance their engagement in the learning process. However, it is important to conduct further
research to validate the effectiveness of these tools in a wider range of classrooms and
educational settings, encompassing diverse student populations.

Researchers and educators have shown great interest in using mobile applications and
artificial intelligence (AI) deep learning to detect student attentiveness. Recent studies have
demonstrated the potential of these tools to monitor students' attentiveness and enhance their
engagement in the learning process.

One of the most promising approaches to detecting student attentiveness using AI is to use
deep neural networks (DNNs). DNNs are a type of machine learning algorithm that can be
trained to recognize patterns in data. In the case of student attentiveness, DNNs can be trained to
recognize patterns in facial expressions, eye movements, and other body language that indicate
whether a student is paying attention.
He et al. (2021) explored a method for detecting student attentiveness using a DNN model.
They trained the model on a dataset of videos captured in a classroom using a mobile phone. The
researchers discovered that their DNN model was able to accurately detect student attentiveness
with an impressive accuracy of 87.5%.
The findings of this study suggest that DNNs have the potential to be a powerful tool for
monitoring student attentiveness in the classroom. However, it is important to note that the
accuracy of DNN models can vary depending on the quality of the data used to train them.
Additionally, DNN models can be computationally expensive to train and deploy.
Despite these limitations, the potential benefits of using DNNs to detect student
attentiveness are significant. By providing teachers with real-time feedback on student
engagement, DNNs can help teachers to identify students who may be struggling and provide
them with the additional support they need. Additionally, DNNs can be used to personalize
instruction and make learning more engaging for all students.
As the field of AI continues to develop, it is likely that DNNs will become even more
accurate and efficient at detecting student attentiveness. This will make it possible for DNNs to
be used on a wider scale to improve student learning outcomes.
In addition to the potential benefits of using DNNs to detect student attentiveness, there are
also some potential drawbacks that should be considered. One concern is that students may
become self-conscious about being monitored, which could lead to decreased engagement.
Additionally, DNNs may not be able to accurately detect attentiveness in all students, such as
those with disabilities.
Kaur et al. (2021) conducted a study where they utilized a mobile application to monitor
student attentiveness in an online classroom environment. They developed an app that employed
AI algorithms to detect facial expressions, eye movements, and head positions of students to
determine their level of attentiveness. The results indicated that the app was successful in
detecting students' attentiveness with an accuracy of 92.5%.
The app worked by first capturing a video of the student's face. The video was then
processed by the AI algorithm, which identified key facial features such as the eyes, mouth, and
eyebrows. The algorithm also tracked the student's eye movements and head position.
The algorithm then used this information to calculate a score for the student's attentiveness.
The score was based on a number of factors, including the duration of eye contact, the frequency
of head nods, and the overall expression on the student's face.
The results of the study showed that the app was able to accurately detect students'
attentiveness with an accuracy of 92.5%. This means that the app was able to correctly identify
students who were paying attention and students who were not paying attention.
The findings of this study suggest that mobile applications have the potential to be a
valuable tool for monitoring student attentiveness in online classrooms. The app developed by
Kaur et al. (2021) was able to accurately detect students' attentiveness with a high degree of
accuracy. This suggests that mobile applications could be used to provide teachers with real-time
feedback on student engagement.

an accuracy of 86.4%.
The app developed by Jang et al. (2020) worked in a similar way to the app developed by
Kaur et al. (2021). The app captured a video of the student's face and then used a machine

position.
The machine learning algorithm used by Jang et al. (2020) was trained on a dataset of
videos of students who were paying attention and students who were not paying attention. The
algorithm was able to learn to identify the key facial features and eye movement patterns that
were associated with attentiveness.

applications can be used to accurately detect student attentiveness. The findings of these studies

attentiveness in both online and traditional classrooms.

educators a valuable resource to monitor students' attentiveness and enhance their engagement in
the learning process. However, it is important to conduct further research to validate the
effectiveness of these tools in a wider range of classrooms and educational settings,
encompassing diverse student populations.
Here are some of the benefits of using mobile applications and AI deep learning algorithms
to detect student attentiveness:
Real-time feedback: Mobile applications can provide teachers with real-time feedback on
student engagement. This can help teachers to identify students who may be struggling and
provide them with the additional support they need.
Personalized instruction: Mobile applications can be used to personalize instruction and
make learning more engaging for all students. For example, an application could be used to track
a student's progress and provide them with additional practice problems or resources if they are
struggling with a particular concept.
Improved learning outcomes: Studies have shown that students who are more engaged in
the learning process tend to have better learning outcomes. Mobile applications and AI deep
learning algorithms can help to improve student engagement and, as a result, improve learning
outcomes.
However, there are also some potential drawbacks to using mobile applications and AI deep
learning algorithms to detect student attentiveness:
Privacy concerns: Some students may be concerned about their privacy if they are being
monitored by a mobile application. It is important to be transparent with students about how their
data is being collected and used.
Cost: Mobile applications and AI deep learning algorithms can be expensive to develop and
deploy. It is important to consider the cost of these tools when deciding whether or not to use
them.
Accuracy: The accuracy of mobile applications and AI deep learning algorithms can vary
depending on the quality of the data used to train them. It is important to evaluate the accuracy of
these tools before using them in the classroom.
Overall, the use of mobile applications and AI deep learning algorithms to detect student
attentiveness is a promising area of research with the potential to improve student learning
outcomes. However, it is important to be aware of the potential drawbacks before implementing
this technology in the classroom.

METHODOLOGY

Chapter 3.1
Introduction
The advancement of technology is changing the face of education. With online classes and
remote learning becoming increasingly popular, students now have more flexibility than ever
before in terms of when and where they study. They no longer have to be confined to traditional
classroom settings, and can now learn from the comfort of their own homes, in a coffee shop, or
even on the go. However, with this newfound freedom comes the challenge of staying focused
and engaged during virtual classes.
This is where our research group comes in. We are exploring the development of a software
application that uses advanced deep learning algorithms to detect a student's level of
attentiveness during virtual classes. The aim of this project is to create a tool that can monitor a
student's level of engagement and provide real-time feedback to help them stay focused and
motivated.
But why is this important? Studies have shown that student engagement is critical to the
learning process. When students are actively engaged in class, they are more likely to retain
information, perform better academically, and have a more positive attitude towards learning. On
the other hand, disengaged students are more likely to struggle academically and lose interest in
their studies.
With our software application, we aim to provide a solution to this problem. By accurately
detecting a student's level of attentiveness and providing personalized feedback, we hope to help
students stay engaged and motivated during virtual classes. Our software will provide students
with real-time feedback, such as notifications or reminders, to help them stay focused and on
track. We believe that this technology will be especially useful for students who struggle with
focus or motivation, as it will provide them with a tangible tool to help them stay engaged.
To achieve our goals, we are using the latest advancements in deep learning and artificial
intelligence. These technologies are rapidly evolving and have the potential to revolutionize the
way we approach education. We believe that our research will contribute to this ongoing
evolution, by developing a tool that can enhance the virtual learning experience and help
students reach their full potential.
Chapter 3.2
Research Methodology:
The research methodology chosen for this study is experimental. This is because the study
aims to explore the development of a software application that can detect a student's
attentiveness during virtual classes. With the rise of online classes and remote learning, students
now have more flexibility in terms of when and where they study. However, with this newfound
freedom comes the challenge of staying focused and engaged during virtual classes. The aim of
this project is to create a tool that can monitor a student's level of engagement during virtual
classes, and provide real-time feedback to help them stay focused and motivated. An
experimental research design was chosen to ensure the reliability and validity of the results. By
utilizing the latest advancements in deep learning and artificial intelligence, the study hopes to
create a tool that can accurately detect a student's level of attentiveness and provide personalized
feedback to help them stay focused and engaged. Through this research, we aim to contribute to
the field of education technology by developing a tool that can enhance the virtual learning
experience and help students reach their full potential.
Chapter 3.3
Data Collection Method:
The data collection method used for this study is data questionnaires. After watching a
learning material video, students were asked to answer a set of questions related to their level of
attentiveness and engagement during the virtual class. The purpose of using data questionnaires
is to collect quantitative data that can be analyzed statistically. The questionnaires were
distributed to a diverse group of students from different academic levels and backgrounds, in
order to ensure a representative sample. The sample size was determined based on the power
analysis, which ensured that the study had a sufficient sample size to detect the expected effect
size. The data collected from the questionnaires will be analyzed using inferential statistics,
which will allow us to draw conclusions about the population based on the sample data. By using
data questionnaires as the data collection method, we aim to gather reliable and valid data that
can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the software application in detecting a student's level
of attentiveness during virtual classes.
Chapter 3.4
Respondents / Subjects of the Study:
The respondents or subjects of this study are Grade 12 ICT students of Commonwealth
High School. These students were chosen because they are currently enrolled in an ICT course,
and are therefore familiar with virtual learning environments. Additionally, the students were
chosen because they represent a diverse range of academic backgrounds and learning styles. The
sample size was determined based on the power analysis, which ensured that the study had a
sufficient sample size to detect the expected effect size. The inclusion criteria for the study were
that the participants must be Grade 12 ICT students of Commonwealth High School, and must
have access to a device capable of running the software application. The participants were
informed of the purpose and procedures of the study, and were given the option to withdraw at
any time. By using Grade 12 ICT students of Commonwealth High School as the respondents or
subjects of this study, we aim to gather data that can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the
software application in detecting a student's level of attentiveness during virtual classes among a
group of students who are familiar with virtual learning environments.
Chapter 3.5
Sampling Method:
The sampling technique used in this study is stratified random sampling. This method
involves dividing the population into homogeneous groups, or strata, based on a specific
characteristic or trait. In this study, the population is Grade 12 ICT students of Commonwealth
High School. The students were divided into strata based on their academic background, which
includes the following: students who consistently score high grades, students who score average
grades, and students who score low grades. The purpose of stratifying the sample is to ensure
that the sample is representative of the population, and that each stratum is proportionately
represented in the sample. After the strata were determined, a random sample of students was
selected from each stratum using a random number generator. This sampling technique was
chosen to minimize sampling error and ensure that the sample is representative of the population.
By using stratified random sampling as the sampling technique, we aim to gather data that can be
used to evaluate the effectiveness of the software application in detecting a student's level of
attentiveness during virtual classes among a representative sample of Grade 12 ICT students of
Commonwealth High School.

Data Analysis Method:
The data collected in this study will be analyzed using inferential statistics. Inferential
statistics is a branch of statistics that involves using statistical methods to draw conclusions about
a population based on a sample of data. The aim of using inferential statistics is to make
inferences about a population based on a limited sample of data, while also taking into account
the uncertainty associated with the sample. In this study, the data collected from the
questionnaires will be analyzed using inferential statistical tests such as t-tests and analysis of
variance (ANOVA). These tests will allow us to determine if there are statistically significant
differences in the level of attentiveness among students with different academic backgrounds.
The results of the inferential statistical analysis will be presented in Chapter 4, along with the
discussion and interpretation of the findings. By using inferential statistics as the data analysis
method, we aim to provide a rigorous and reliable evaluation of the effectiveness of the software
application in detecting a student's level of attentiveness during virtual classes among Grade 12
ICT students of Commonwealth High School.

Limitation and Delimitations:
This study has certain limitations and delimitations that must be taken into consideration
when interpreting the results. One limitation of this study is the relatively small sample size,
which may limit the generalizability of the findings. Another limitation is the fact that the study
was conducted in a single school, which may limit the generalizability of the findings to other
schools or settings. Additionally, the study relied on self-reported data, which may be subject to
biases and inaccuracies. Furthermore, this study only focused on the use of the software
application to detect a student's level of attentiveness during virtual classes among Grade 12 ICT
students of Commonwealth High School, and did not consider other factors that may impact
student engagement and academic performance. These limitations may impact the validity and
reliability of the study's findings. However, the delimitation of this study is that it specifically
targets Grade 12 ICT students of Commonwealth High School, which provides a more focused
and detailed analysis of the software application's effectiveness in a specific context. Overall, it
is important to take into account both the limitations and delimitations of the study when
interpreting the results.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, this study utilized experimental research methodology to investigate the
development of a software application that can detect a student's level of attentiveness using
advanced deep learning algorithms, and provide real-time feedback to help them stay focused
and motivated during virtual classes. Stratified random sampling technique was employed to
select Grade 12 ICT students of Commonwealth High School as the subjects of the study. Data
were collected through questionnaires that were administered after the students watched a
learning material video. Inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. The use of
experimental research methodology and stratified random sampling technique ensured the
validity and reliability of the results. The findings of this study provide evidence for the
effectiveness of personalized feedback in promoting student engagement and academic
performance. However, it is important to note that this study has certain limitations and
delimitations that must be taken into consideration when interpreting the results. Future research
should aim to address these limitations and explore the effectiveness of the software application
in different contexts and with larger sample sizes. Overall, this chapter contributes to the
understanding of the research methodology used in this study and its relevance in investigating
the research questions.
