The growing implementation of digital platforms and mobile devices in educational environments has generated the need to explore new approaches for evaluating the learning experience beyond traditional self-reports or instructor presence. In this context, the NPFC-Test dataset was created from an experimental protocol conducted at the Experiential Classroom of the Institute for the Future of Education. The dataset was built by collecting multimodal indicators such as neuronal, physiological, and facial data using a portable EEG headband, a medical-grade biometric bracelet, a high-resolution depth camera, and self-report questionnaires. The participants were exposed to a digital test lasting 20 min, composed of audiovisual stimuli and cognitive challenges, during which synchronized data from all devices were gathered. The dataset includes timestamped records related to emotional valence, arousal, and concentration, offering a valuable resource for multimodal learning analytics (MMLA). The recorded data were processed through calibration procedures, temporal alignment techniques, and emotion recognition models. It is expected that the NPFC-Test dataset will support future studies in human–computer interaction and educational data science by providing structured evidence to analyze cognitive and emotional states in learning processes. In addition, it offers a replicable framework for capturing synchronized biometric and behavioral data in controlled academic settings.
