Several elements of Affective Computing, like motivation, are present in the Virtual Worlds, when some educational activity is realized.
How to analyse if the student are motivated and like/deslike of interacting in an immersive environment? Suggestions of ways to analyse these elements?
Dear Felipe,
the motivation is typically measured in terms of Attention, Relevance, Confidence and Satisfaction (ARCS). See the ARCS model at http://www.arcsmodel.com/#!arcs-model/c1wm1

Barry Kort, Rob Reilly address the issue of Affective Computing very well in their articles by pointing how Affective Computing began to address a variety of research, methodological, and technical issues pertaining to the integration of affect into HCI
(e.g., machine recognition of affective states of the user, synthesis of affective states of cartoon
2
avatars or embodied agents, applications incorporating social-emotional intelligence).you can follow this link for more detail.http://affect.media.mit.edu/projectpages/lc/vworlds.pdf
