Designing an Intelligent Teaching Simulator for Learning to Teach by Practicing

چکیده
Learning to teach is difficult for prospective teachers because of the complex nature of the work of teaching. Practicing (Lampert 2010), interacting with the practice of teaching from a first-person perspective, may give them a unique experience in learning to teach. Computer-based simulators in which the apprentice teacher can interact with virtual students may be used to create that kind of experience. In this paper, we show how to apply techniques in artificial intelligence to design an intelligent learning environment. We show how to model the apprentice’s decision-making and resources that can help him or her improve the practice of teaching.

متن کاملDesigning an Interactive Teaching Tool with ABML Knowledge Refinement Loop
Argument-based machine learning (ABML) knowledge refinement loop offers a powerful knowledge elicitation tool, suitable for obtaining expert knowledge in difficult domains. In this paper, we first use it to conceptualize a difficult, even ill-defined concept: distinguishing between “basic” and “advanced” programming style in python programming language, and then to teach this concept in an inte...
