Intelligent tutors for all: Constraint-based modeling methodology, systems and authoring Contributing Authors

چکیده
Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) have revolutionized online education by providing individualized instruction tailored towards each student. Constraint-based tutors model instructional domains at an abstract level, a novel approach that simplifies the development of ITSs. We have developed many effective constraint-based tutors over the last decade in a number of instructional domains of various characteristics, some of which have been successfully commercialized. Constraint-based tutoring is now a mature and successful approach to providing adaptive learning environments. Our authoring tools aim to make this technology widely available to teachers and students everywhere.

ASPIRE: An Authoring System and Deployment Environment for Constraint-Based Tutors
Over the last decade, the Intelligent Computer Tutoring Group (ICTG) has implemented many successful constraint-based Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs) in a variety of instructional domains. Our tutors have proven their effectiveness not only in controlled lab studies but also in real classrooms, and some of them have been commercialized. Although constraint-based tutors seem easier to develo...
متن کاملAuthoring Constraint-Based Tutors in ASPIRE
This paper presents a project the goal of which is to develop ASPIRE, a complete authoring and deployment environment for constraintbased intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs). ASPIRE is based on our previous work on constraint-based tutors and WETAS, the tutoring shell. ASPIRE consists of the authoring server (ASPIRE-Author), which enables domain experts to easily develop new constraint-base tut...
متن کاملEvaluation of WebxPST: A Browser-Based Authoring Tool for Problem-Specific Tutors
Authoring tools enable the more rapid creation of intelligent tutoring systems. Such tools are essential for tutors to become more widespread. In this study we evaluate WebxPST, a browser-based authoring system that enables non-programmers to create model-tracing-like intelligent tutors. Five authors, two course instructors and three undergraduates, created 74 problems suitable for use in an un...
متن کاملAuthoring Constraint-based Tutors in ASPIRE: a Case Study of a Capital Investment Tutor
Although intelligent tutoring systems have proven their effectiveness, they are still not widely spread due to the high development costs. We present ASPIRE, a complete authoring and deployment environment for constraint-based intelligent tutoring systems. ASPIRE consists of the authoring server (ASPIRE-Author), which enables domain experts (i.e. teachers) to easily develop new ITSs for their c...
متن کاملAuthoring Intelligent Tutoring Systems for Disabled Learners
The purpose of this paper is to present an authoring tool for the development of a distance learning hypermedia intelligent tutoring system (HITS). Designed to satisfy guidelines of accessibility of the W3C recommendation for authors and learners that present disabilities, the authoring tool allows several authors geographically dispersed to cooperate to produce such tutors together. It consist...
