Rate the following essay on its writing, argument, and language skills:
In the future computers might be able to respond to how you feel. Thanks to new computer software that can now determine your emotions it might just happen. I feel that this software could be very useful for students and teachers.

I think that Facial Action Coding Systems could be useful for students because the computer could read your emotions and make changes just like a real teacher. For example, in the passage it says, "a classroom computer could recognize when a student is feeling confused or bored," Dr. Huang predicts. "Then it could modify the lesson, like an effective human instructor." This means that a computer lesson could change if the computer determined that you were bored. It could also explain more fully if it determined you were confused. This software could be very useful in school computers.

Facial Action Coding Systems could also help teachers by showing how the kids are feeling. The software could alert teachers if a student was confused, upset, bored, ect. In the passage it says, "Eckman has classified six basic emotions-happiness, suprise, anger, disgust, fear, and sadness-and then associated each with a characteristic movements of the facial muscles. This means that the software is acurate and could help teachers determine how a kid is feeling. This could help teachers because the teacher could then react to how the kid is feeling. If a kid was sad the teacher could comfort them and if the kid was mad the teacher could talk with them. This could help teachers out very much and could decrease school violence.

Facial action coding systems could be very useful to students and teachers. It could help students that are taking online classes because the computer could respond like an actual teacher. This software could help teachers by showing the kids emotions. Then the teacher could react to how the student is feeling. For these reasons I think Facial Action Coding Systems could be very useful to teachers and students in schools.
