**5. Precision sensing attention monitoring of student in e-learning (e-PSAM)**

Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) can benefit from using a mix of pedagogical services, including those provided through IoT platforms, such those presented in this chapter.

In that context, it is proposed the "*Precision Sensing Attention Monitoring of Student in e-learning*" (e-PSAM) scenario, which is the students' real-time sensing and monitoring, with emphasis on attention by using technology (sensors, sound, cameras). E-PSAM applies to control engineering devices that are used in order to optimize these processes.

Precision Sensing Attention Monitoring of Student in e-learning (e-PSAM) is the application of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in real-time to monitoring student attention. Technology, for instance, sensors (e.g. bio-signal sensors) might be used to continuously monitor the student attention and their behavior during an e-learning task. This allows for helping both students and teachers by supervising and managing their activities. Engineering is used to optimize learning management processes. The focus is on attention monitoring and management. The goal of the e-PSAM scenario is to improve students' attention and performance,
