Abstract

We present a complete system for distance learning over interactive TV with novel tools for authoring and presentation of lectures and exams, and evaluation of student and system performance. The main technological contributions of the paper include the development of plug-in software so that PowerPoint can be used to prepare presentations for the set-top-box, a software tool to convert PDF documents containing multiple-choice questions into interactive exams, and a virtual teacher whose facial animation is automatically generated from speech.
