چکیده

It has been noticed that during the initial semesters of Computing Engineering that the amount of human tutors is insufficient. The students/tutors ratio is very high and there is a great difference in the acquired knowledge and backgrounds. The idea is that a system could emulate the human tutor and besides provide the student with a degree of flexibility for the selection of the most adequate tutorial type. This could be a feasible solution to the stated problem. But a tutorial system should not only emulate the human tutor but besides it should be designed from an epistemological conception of what teaching Basic Programming means specially in an Engineering course due to the profile and identity of the future engineer.

Multiagent Based Selection of Tutor-Subject-Student Paradigm in an Intelligent Tutoring System

Intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) aim at development of two main interconnected modules: pedagogical module and student module. The pedagogical module concerns with the design of a teaching strategy which combines the interest of the student, tutor’s capability and characteristics of subject. Very few effective models have been developed which combine the cognitive, psychological and behaviora...

Designing Intelligent Tutoring Systems: A Bayesian Approach

This paper proposes a model and an architecture for designing intelligent tutoring system using Bayesian Networks. The design model of an intelligent tutoring system is directed towards the separation between the domain knowledge and the tutor shell. The architecture is composed by a user model, a knowledge base, an adaptation module, a pedagogical module and a presentation module. Bayesian Net...

Using Pattern Languages to Design Intelligent Tutoring Systems: A Case Study

Intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) in the domain of language learning are becoming very common. Software engineering best practices and frameworks should be used to ease the process of developing new intelligent tutoring systems. In this research, we show how a Pattern language for intelligent tutoring systems (PLITS) was used to develop modules of the Arabic Tutor. The Arabic tutor is a web-ba...

Architecture for an Intelligent Tutoring System that Considers Learning Styles

In this paper we propose the architecture of an Intelligent Tutoring System that considers the student's learning style and the competency-based education. We also describe the processes that have been implemented so far. Our architecture presents innovations in the representation of the tutor module and in the knowledge module; the tutor module incorporates a selector agent, which will choose ...

Extracting Information from Natural Language Input to an Intelligent Tutoring System

We have constructed a new module to process student natural language input to CIRCSIM-Tutor, an intelligent tutoring system designed to help medical students learn to solve problems involving the negative feedback process that regulates blood pressure in the human body. CIRCSIM-Tutor spends most of its time engaging the student in a natural language-based dialogue. The new input understander us...
