Summary :

Self-review is essential to improving presentation, particularly for novice/unskilled researchers. In general, they could record a video of their presentation, and then check it out for self-review. However, they would be quite uncomfortable due to their appearance and voice in the video. They also struggle with in-depth self-review. To address these issues, we designed a presentation avatar that reproduces presentation made by researchers. The presentation avatar intends to increase self-awareness through self-reviewing. We also designed a checklist to aid in a detailed self-review, which includes points to be reviewed. This paper also demonstrates presentation avatar systems that use a virtual character and a robot, to allow novice/unskilled researchers as learners to self-review their own presentation using the checklist. The results of case studies with the systems indicate that the presentation avatar systems have the potential to promote self-review. In particular, we found that robot avatar promoted engagement in self-reviewing presentation.
