fa7fcbde3847 | 9500B623A6AC | I think that yes it would help with making class less boring and/ or confusing but it can also just lead to even more frustation or sadness. It also isn't going to help if you are sitting in front of an actual human teacher and not a computer. | Evidence | Adequate |

e83b39b9eca8 | 9500B623A6AC | So in conclusion, I give this system about a 50% chance of it helping in the classroom like Dr. Huang says it will.

I think it could help with other activities though, such as playing video games or watching videos. | Concluding Statement | Adequate |
