The electrical activity of the brain can be quantified by measuring the electroencephalogram (EEG), a technology that underpins emerging commercial Brain Computer Interface (BCI) devices. The EEG can be used to directly assess measures of brain function: sensory, motor and cognitive processes. In this paper we assess the readiness of this technology for application to teaching and learning. We propose a hybrid BCI methodology that can be used to gather EEG metrics during an immersive control task. The changes in EEG provide objective measures regarding user engagement with the task. When used in conjunction with eye tracking technology, a hybrid BCI offers the potential of exploring learning at a more granular level.
