Resum:
The large variety of students in a class makes the teaching task complex, making it difficult for the teacher to personalise learning to each student. Since students should be at the centre of the educational process, it is necessary to know them better, so this study aims to explore the possibilities of using a camera for emotion recognition (ER) with a view to the potential use of this information to improve the teaching-learning process. To accomplish the aim it is previously necessary to develop and apply code capable of detecting faces, ER and transfer this data into a database for further analysis, which consists of establishing the first approximations to the relationship between students' emotions and other conditions (subject, time of day, academic performance). By monitoring the emotional state of students, if used properly, can improve educational processes, such as the teacher's decision-making in the classroom, as well as optimise attention to students, adjusting their methodology or focusing on a specific student.
