The document discusses the Mirror Project, an EU-funded initiative aimed at enhancing emotional awareness and reflective learning in workplace settings. It outlines methods to capture emotions through collaborative environments, virtual meetings, and live feedback tools, while also addressing challenges like time constraints and privacy concerns. The conclusion emphasizes the potential of automatic approaches, such as sensors, to motivate individuals to reflect on their emotions at work.

- 19. Challenges ▪ Goal‐oriented and lack of time ▪ Have to see the benefits/utility – show payoff ▪ Create CURIOSITY ▪ Add entertainment, motivation, feedback ▪ Constructive and positive ▪ Tendency to avoid/ignore emotions at work ▪ What you show vs. what it really is ▪ Individual and collaborative environment ▪ Privacy concerns 19 © MIRROR Project ‐ Co‐Funded by EU IST FP7 – www.mirror‐project.eu
- 20. Conclusions and Outlook ▪ How can we motivate people to capture their emotions at work? ▪ Automatic approaches i.e. sensors ▪ ECG (heart rate), acceleration sensors (physical activity) ▪ User study at a clinic* More QS approaches can inspire new effective reflective tools! * L.
