A second survey was subsequently administered, in order to understand the state of emotion<br />

experienced by students, particularly in response to the online course on the i-Learn system. The i-<br />

Learn system is an eLearning environment developed to allow lecturers to share online learning<br />

material with students in the first author’s university. In this survey, 106 students were given several<br />

open-ended questions related to the current online learning system that they were experiencing.<br />

Analysis of the second surveys findings revealed that, even though many students responded that<br />

they were satisfied, at the same time, many online learning materials in their courses still evoked<br />

negative emotions.<br />

7.2 Extracting low-level Kansei words<br />

In this step, 511 Kansei words considered to be related to online learning, as well as the psychology<br />

of learning, were collected from 83 journals and proceedings. The optimum number of Kansei words,<br />

according to Nagamachi and Lokman (2011), is between 600 and 800, but 300 or 400 words are also<br />

sufficient to complete the primary evaluation experiment. Kansei words were usually related to users’<br />
