Peer attention enhances student learning
Songlin Xu, Dongyin Hu, Ru Wang, Xinyu Zhang
Human visual attention is susceptible to social influences. In education, peer effects impact student learning, but their precise role in modulating attention remains unclear. Our experiment (N=311) demonstrates that displaying peer visual attention regions when students watch online course videos enhances their focus and engagement. However, students retain adaptability in following peer attention cues. Overall, guided peer attention improves learning experiences and outcomes. These findings elucidate how peer visual attention shapes students' gaze patterns, deepening understanding of peer influence on learning. They also offer insights into designing adaptive online learning interventions leveraging peer attention modelling to optimize student attentiveness and success.
