INITIATING ACTIONS RESPONSIVE TO USER EXPRESSIONS OF A USER WHILE READING MEDIA CONTENT

First media content including text is presented on a display. User expressions of a user, including eye movement, are tracked by an image detector while the user is reading the text of the first media content. User expression data is generated based on the user expressions of the user. A determination can be made as to whether the user expression data indicates that the user gazes at a portion of the text presented on the display for a period exceeding a threshold value. Responsive to determining that the user expression data indicates that the user gazes at a portion of the text presented on the display for a period exceeding a threshold value, one or more actions can be automatically initiated. For example, additional media content that provides further explanation of the media content can be presented.
