7. A method for improving student learning, the method comprising: presenting learning material to a student; measuring physiological data of the student with a device as the learning material is presented, wherein the data includes at least three of a brain activity of the student, a measurement of the time it takes the student to read the material, a response time of the student to a request or question posed, a correctness of a response by the student, a total time the student has been engaged in learning, a position of gaze of the student and a posture of the student; determining a cognitive state of the student with a cognitive assessment algorithm that uses the physiological data; and modifying a continued presentation of the learning material in real time with a learning action algorithm that uses the cognitive state of the student.
