چکیده

The previous version of our Intelligent Tutoring System, Circsim-Tutor (CST) had only four procedures with no difference in difficulty level. However, our new version has 83 procedures that are classified into five Content Categories, five Procedure Difficulty Levels and four Procedure Description Levels. This variety requires Curriculum Planning. Sometimes students may know more than the system does about their ability. CST allows students to adjust the difficulty of the next procedure set. The Curriculum Planner determines which procedures to display for student selection on the basis of prior performance and current estimates of the student domain knowledge.

Curriculum Tree: A Knowledge-Based Architecture for Intelligent Tutoring Systems

This paper describes a knowledge-based architecture, called curriculum tree, for building intelligent tutoring systems. Primarily based on the subject domain knowledge structure, the architecture naturally incorporates the global curriculum planning and monitors the local learning activities. The curriculum tree can also be viewed as a structure of various teaching knowledge at different stages...

Designing an Intelligent Tutoring System Based on a Reactive Model of Skill Acquisition

We describe a detailed computational model of skilled behavior and learning in a reactive task domain. We model not only the problem solving behavior, but also the skill acquisition process: our model can improve its performance over time, acquire new knowledge, and recover from incorrect knowledge. This model allowed us to predict the effectiveness of various tutoring system and curriculum des...

Curriculum Knowledge Representation and Manipulation in Knowledge-Based Tutoring Systems

A Knowledge-Based Tutoring System (KBTS) is a computer-based instructional system that uses artificial intelligence techniques to help people learn some subjects. We found that the knowledge communication process involving a KBTS and a human student can be decomposed into a series of communication cycles, where each cycle concentrates on one topic and contains four major phases: planning, discu...

Learning a Skill-Teaching Curriculum with Dynamic Bayes Nets

We propose an intelligent tutoring system that constructs a curriculum of hints and problems in order to teach a student skills with a rich dependency structure. We provide a template for building a multi-layered Dynamic Bayes Net to model this problem and describe how to learn the parameters of the model from data. Planning with the DBN then produces a teaching policy for the given domain. We ...

Using Case-Based Planning in Designing and Planning a Multiagent System

Designing and planning in multiagent systems (MAS) can be an example of planning problems, which has been recently known as a powerful processing tool in transactional and interactional environments. Case-based planning (CBP) which is an induction-based mechanism, has many applicational abilities in these problems. Intelligent tutoring system that have kept the most attention in the computation...
