| The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of various realistic levels of talkinghead on students’ emotions in pronunciation learning.Four talking-head characters with varying levels of realism were developed and tested: a nonrealistic threedimensional character, a realistic three-dimensional character, a two-dimensional character, and an actual human character.The student’s emotional level was measured with the learning component of Achievement Emotions Questionnaire following their exploration of the instructional material on a self-paced learning method.The research method was a quasi-experimental design, and the data were analyzed using ANCOVA test.The sample consisted of 150 Semester 1 students from four community colleges. The findings revealed significant differences (p |
