However, their use provide limited quantitative and/or qualitative measures such as viewing time and/or gaze trajectory on an isolated object or image (Region of Interest "ROI"). The aim of this work is to evaluate the potential of the mobile eye-tracking to quantify the students’ experience and behaviors through their visit of the "Genocide and mass violence" area of the Caen memorial. In this study, we collected eye-tracking data from 17 students during their visit to the memorial. In addition, all visitors filled out a questionnaire before the visit, and a focus group was conducted </span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: ’Liberation Serif’,serif; color: windowtext;" lang="EN-US">before and </span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: ’Liberation Serif’,serif;" lang="EN-US">after the visit.</span> <span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: ’Liberation Serif’,serif;" lang="EN-US">The first results of this study allowed us to analyze the viewing time spent by each visitor in front of 19-selected ROIs, and some of their specific sub-parts. The other important result was the reconstruction of the gaze trajectory through these ROIs. Our global trajectory approach allowed to complete the information obtained from an isolated ROI, and to identify some behaviors such as avoidance. Clustering analysis revealed some typical trajectories performed by specific sub-groups.
