Abstract

Digital humans have become a significant area of focus in the fields of computer graphics and human-computer interaction research. In this context, we propose a technical framework for the implementation of digital teachers in virtual teaching environments. To evaluate the effectiveness of our design concept and technical approach, we developed Tsing XiaoAI, a digital teacher, and conducted a randomized controlled trial (RCT) involving 90 primary school students. The RCT aimed to examine the impact of the digital teacher on students’ subjective experience and objective learning outcomes. The technological validation results indicate that our proposed technical framework is a feasible solution for integrating digital teachers into virtual teaching environments. Furthermore, the experimental findings suggest that digital teachers have a positive effect on enhancing students’ interest in learning, increasing virtual classroom interactivity, and significantly improving learning outcomes.
