Cognitive Agents for Primary School Education: Visual Approach
summary
Primary students draw and name colorful avatars that are turned into interactive cognitive tutors that answer spoken curriculum questions in Croatian and reply with audio plus matching animations. The team implements a cross‑platform web page, uses speech‑to‑text plus simple NLP and a mapped prompt table stored in a relational database, and drives animations created with CrazyTalk. The prototype runs standalone, shows high engagement, struggles with classroom background noise and kids’ unclear pronunciation, and adds a dropdown fallback to keep it usable.
