| Research Abstract |
We have developed a Web application for English word-reordering problems which records and reproduces learners' mouse trajectories, and analyzed the recorded trajectories such as time needed for answering, numbers of u-turns and drag&drops, in relation to the scores and “confidence points” rated by learners. The negative correlations between them have led to the hypothesis that the trajectories can include useful clues to the solving processes, especially learners’ hesitation resulting from uncertainty when the problems are being solved.
