Interactive Narration with a Child: Avatar versus Human in Video-Conference
Abstract
This article reviews a part of the data collected in a "Wizard-of-Oz" environment, where children interact with a virtual character in a narrative setup. The experiment compares children's engagement depending on the narrator type: either a piloted virtual character or a human in video-conference. The results show that engagement exists, but the modality of the interaction feedback varies in the two contexts.
