This monograph integrates theoretical perspectives on affect and learning with recent research in affective computing with an emphasis on building new learning technologies. The "new perspectives" come from the intersection of several research themes: - Basic research on emotion, cognition, and motivation applied to learning environments - Pedagogical and motivational strategies that are sensitive to affective and cognitive processes - Multimodal Human Computer Interfaces, with a focus on affect recognition and synthesis - Recent advances in affect-sensitive Intelligent Tutoring Systems - Novel methodologies to investigate affect and learning - Neuroscience research on emotions and learning
