dc.description.abstractLanguage instructors often assign tasks such as presentations to evaluate communication skills among English language learners (ELLs). However, delivering a presentation in a non-native language has been reported as one of the most anxiety-provoking tasks faced by ELLs [1]. Difficulties are often encountered by instructors when attempting to identify anxiety among students, as it may not necessarily be obvious from facial expressions or behaviors. Instructors may also be unfamiliar with cultural norms among students, and, as a result, may misinterpret the silence or passive participation in class activities. Unless ELLs explicitly disclose feelings of anxiety, the process of detecting emotional states continues to pose a challenge to instructors.en_US
