wherein the determining the time when to present assessment content to the user further is based, at least in part, on the monitoring the emotions expressed by the user while the user gazes at the educational content. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The method of claim 5, further comprising: dynamically selecting the assessment content based, at least in part, on the monitoring the emotions expressed by the user while the user gazes at the educational content. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: receiving from the user answers to questions presented to the user in the assessment content; based on the answers to the questions received from the user, determining whether to move to a next section of the educational content; and responsive to determining to move to the next section of the educational content, skipping remaining sub-parts of the present section of the educational content and presenting the next section of the educational content to the user via the display. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: receiving from the user answers to questions presented to the user in the assessment content; based on the answers to the questions received from the user, determining whether to skip a particular sub-part of a present section of the educational content; and responsive to determining to skip the particular sub-part of the present section of the educational content, skipping the particular sub-part of the present section of the educational content and presenting another sub-part of another section of the educational content to the user via the display. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, further comprising: receiving from the user answers to questions presented to the user in the assessment content; based on the answers to the questions received from the user, determining whether to present a next sub-part of a present section of the educational content; and responsive to determining to present the next sub-part of the present section of the educational content, presenting the next sub-part of the present section of the educational content to the user via the display. ### Claim 10 A system, comprising: a processor programmed to initiate executable operations comprising: presenting educational content to a user via a display; monitoring eye movement of the user while the user gazes at the educational content; based, at least in part, on the monitoring the eye movement of the user while the user gazes at the educational content, determining a time when to present assessment content to the user; and presenting the assessment content to the user at the determined time. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The system of claim 10, the executable operations further comprising: dynamically selecting the assessment content based, at least in part, on the monitoring the eye movement of the user while the user gazes at the educational content. ### Claim 12 (depends on 10) The system of claim 10, the executable operations further comprising: monitoring facial expressions of the user while the user gazes at the educational content; wherein the determining the time when to present assessment content to the user further is based, at least in part, on the monitoring the facial expressions of the user while the user gazes at the educational content. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The system of claim 12, the executable operations further comprising: dynamically selecting the assessment content based, at least in part, on the monitoring the facial expressions of the user while the user gazes at the educational content. ### Claim 14 (depends on 10) The system of claim 10, the executable operations further comprising: monitoring emotions expressed by the user while the user gazes at the educational content; wherein the determining the time when to present assessment content to the user further is based, at least in part, on the monitoring the emotions expressed by the user while the user gazes at the educational content. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The system of claim 14, the executable operations further comprising: dynamically selecting the assessment content based, at least in part, on the monitoring the emotions expressed by the user while the user gazes at the educational content. ### Claim 16 (depends on 10) The system of claim 10, the executable operations further comprising: receiving from the user answers to questions presented to the user in the assessment content; based on the answers to the questions received from the user, determining whether to move to a next section of the educational content; and responsive to determining to move to the next section of the educational content, skipping remaining sub-parts of the present section of the educational content and presenting the next section of the educational content to the user via the display. ### Claim 17 (depends on 10) The system of claim 10, the executable operations further comprising: receiving from the user answers to questions presented to the user in the assessment content; based on the answers to the questions received from the user, determining whether to skip a particular sub-part of a present section of the educational content; and responsive to determining to skip the particular sub-part of the present section of the educational content, skipping the particular sub-part of the present section of the educational content and presenting another sub-part of another section of the educational content to the user via the display. ### Claim 18 (depends on 10) The system of claim 10, the executable operations further comprising: receiving from the user answers to questions presented to the user in the assessment content; based on the answers to the questions received from the user, determining whether to present a next sub-part of a present section of the educational content; and responsive to determining to present the next sub-part of the present section of the educational content, presenting the next sub-part of the present section of the educational content to the user via the display. ### Claim 19 A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program code stored thereon, the program code executable by a processor to perform a method comprising: presenting, by the processor, educational content to a user via a display; monitoring, by the processor, eye movement of the user while the user gazes at the educational content; based, at least in part, on the monitoring the eye movement of the user while the user gazes at the educational content, determining, by the processor, a time when to present assessment content to the user; and presenting, by the processor, the assessment content to the user at the determined time. ### Claim 20 (depends on 19) The computer program product of claim 19, the method further comprising: dynamically selecting the assessment content based, at least in part, on the monitoring the eye movement of the user while the user gazes at the educational content.
