With the technological improvements of innovative portable recording gadgets, augmented researchers' interest in exploring students' visual attention in their natural and normal occurring classrooms. The purpose of this study was to gauge students' visual attention in their Mathematics and English classrooms. This article reports on a study conducted in three schools in Santiago, Chile, where a sample of 113 randomly selected students wore a mini‐video camera mounted on eyeglass in their Mathematics and English lessons. Using Google images, we automatically and objectively examined 723,600 frames from the recordings where the classroom teacher appeared in the students' visual field. The results show that students' visual attention varies depending on four factors: (a) gender of the student, (b) age of the students, whether students are low/high attainers and (d) whether students are in English or Mathematics lessons. Surprisingly, students significantly paid more visual attention in their Mathematics than in English lessons. High attainers were more visually engaged than their low attainers counterparts. Students appeared to be visually engaged differently at different stages in their education. Furthermore, girls were more visually engaged than boys. The results of this study can have enormous practical implications for teachers and teacher education, in order to be better visually engaged with students during teaching.

在数学和英语课堂中解开学生视觉注意力的黑匣子：使用微型视频录制小工具的经验证据

随着创新型便携式录音设备的技术进步，研究人员对在自然和正常教室中探索学生视觉注意力的兴趣日益增强。这项研究的目的是评估学生在数学和英语课堂上的视觉注意力。本文报道了在智利圣地亚哥的三所学校进行的一项研究，该研究中随机抽取了113名学生的样本，在他们的数学和英语课程中戴了一个安装在眼镜上的微型摄像机。使用Google图片，我们自动客观地检查了教室老师在学生视野中出现的记录中的723,600帧。结果表明，学生的视觉注意力取决于四个因素：（a）学生的性别，（b）学生的年龄，学生是否是低/高学历者；以及（d）学生是否正在上英语课或数学课。令人惊讶的是，学生在数学上比在英语课上更多地关注了视觉上的注意力。高学历的人比低学历的人更具视觉吸引力。在教育的不同阶段，学生在视觉上的参与程度似乎有所不同。此外，女孩比男孩更具视觉吸引力。这项研究的结果可能对教师和教师教育具有巨大的实际意义，以便在教学过程中更好地与学生进行视觉互动。高学历的人比低学历的人更具视觉吸引力。在教育的不同阶段，学生在视觉上的参与程度似乎有所不同。此外，女孩比男孩更具视觉吸引力。这项研究的结果可能对教师和教师教育具有巨大的实际意义，以便在教学过程中更好地与学生进行视觉互动。高学历的人比低学历的人更具视觉吸引力。在教育的不同阶段，学生在视觉上的参与程度似乎有所不同。此外，女孩比男孩更具视觉吸引力。这项研究的结果可能对教师和教师教育具有巨大的实际意义，以便在教学过程中更好地与学生进行视觉互动。
