作者:

Highlights:

• We analyzed the impact of different parameters of the physical environment on students’ focus.

• The research is based on the dataset collected from 14 recorded lectures.

• We analyzed five parameters from the physical environment and 22 features from lecturer’s voice.

• We found five uncorrelated parameters to have significant impact on students’ focus.
