What Can Eye Movement Patterns Reveal About Learners' Performance?

In this paper, we are particularly interested in analyzing learners' visual behaviour and what can fixation-based metrics can reveal about students' learning performance while solving medical cases. The objective of this study is to analyze how the students visually explore the learning environment across different areas of interest. Results showed that even so there is a specific area of interest that has the greatest level of attention from the students, this area does not impact students' performance in the resolution of the clinical tasks. The findings demonstrated that there are other areas of interest that are positively correlated with the learners' success.
