Using Tutoring Patterns to Generate More Cohesive Text in an Intelligent Tutoring System
نویسندگان
چکیده
If we want students to read, pay attention to and understand the text generated by an ITS, the text needs to (a) be organized into cohesive turns, (b) flow in natural conversation patterns, and (c) have sufficient variety that neither syntactic structures nor pedagogical goals are repeated overly often. CIRCSIM-Tutor v. 3 is a natural-language based ITS for cardiac physiology currently under development. Text planning for v. 3 will be accomplished by TIPS, a text planning engine based on current research in text generation. We describe how TIPS will achieve the goals mentioned above. We use transcripts of sessions conducted by expert human tutors to derive tutoring patterns for TIPS. Through the use of the TIPS planner, we expect CIRCSIM-Tutor v. 3 to generate longer, more complex and more natural text than previous work.

ITSPOKE: An Intelligent Tutoring Spoken Dialogue System
ITSPOKE is a spoken dialogue system that uses the Why2-Atlas text-based tutoring system as its “back-end”. A student first types a natural language answer to a qualitative physics problem. ITSPOKE then engages the student in a spoken dialogue to provide feedback and correct misconceptions, and to elicit more complete explanations. We are using ITSPOKE to generate an empirically-based understand...

متن کاملA Task-Specific Architecture for the Generation of Intelligent Tutoring Systems
There is a need for easier, more cost-effective means of developing intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs). A novel and advantageous solution to this problem is the development of a task-specific ITS shell that can generate tutoring systems for different domains within a given class of tasks. Task-specific authoring shells offer flexibility in generating ITSs for different domains, yet are powerfu...
